Feature Redesign: Stipulation Manager
Company: Forward Financing

Project Background

  • In the process of applying for an advance, Customer submits a set of required documents needed to start processing the application

  • Documents are reviewed/handled by different teams (Prequalification, Processing, Sales, Closing, Underwriting)

  • All groups have access to Salesforce as the source of truth for any Customer information

  • Business decision was made to remove Salesforce access for user groups that primarily work in other applications (Prequalification, Processing, Underwriting, Closing)

​

My Role

My role was to redesign the current Stipulation Manager into an independent component that can be used in any other application. 

​

Design Process

Design Considerations

  • Five distinct groups with distinct sets of functions will use the component

    • Prequalification team: upload documents, preview, delete

    • Processing team: upload documents, assign tag(s), preview, delete

    • Underwriting team: upload documents, review, download, assign themselves as reviewers, accept/reject a document, request a new document, add notes to a document, sign off on all documents

    • Closing team: upload documents, review, download, assign themselves to a document, assign a status to a document, accept documents

    • Sales team: upload documents, preview documents, view stipulation status

  • The current system cannot serve custom UI

    • The information needs to be arranged in such a way to serve each of the five groups in an effective way without much customization

  • Features that existed in Salesforce need to be transferred to the new component

  • Application processing is mostly linear 

    • The features of the component will build up as the stages of the application advance through the flow

  • Enhanced Stipulation Manager will be embedded in an iFrame​

  • Any modals can only take up the size of an iFrame (iFrame cannot control it’s parent window)
