This section discusses the updates and enhancements to existing forms, features, services, or settings that are provided in this release.

Updates to ICE PPE

"ICE PPE" refers to the new User experience (introduced as part of the 24.2 release) using the Encompass Partner Connect (EPC) interface.

Support for Partially Financed USDA Guarantee Fee Loans

Currently in Encompass, the Upfront Government Fee functionality only supports fully financed USDA Guarantee Fee loans. As part of this release, Encompass will start to support partially financed USDA Guarantee Fee loans.

Support for Attribution Categories

This feature enables Clients to create Paid By and Adjustment Reason categories for use with manual adjusters. These categories will allow reports to be run that sum across the various Encompass fields where adjustments might be stored to create an aggregated value for a particular category/adjustment grouping.

Additional Enhancements

Updates to Classic EPPS

"Classic EPPS" refers to the User interface for pricing loans, Administration, and the integration that preceded ICE PPE (introduced as part of the 24.2 release).

Support for Partially Financed USDA Guarantee Fee Loans

Additional Enhancements

Bulk User Upload

We are introducing the Bulk User Upload, for new and existing Clients, to streamline the creation of a significant number of new Users to ICE PPE at a single time. Clients will enter their new User information into an Excel worksheet file provided by the ICE PPE Technical Operations (Tech Ops) team, and then return the file to that team. Tech Ops will then upload the Users into the system.
