EPPS.-93498
The Max DTI used in the qualification has been added to the Ineligible Details accessed from the Qualify tab.
Updated on 5/11/2026
A new LO Comp setting has been added to the Options page under Settings. This setting enables the LO Comp to be calculated and applied using the Base Loan Amount or the Total Loan Amount.
Previously, if the LO Comp came from Encompass, the Comp dollar amount was based on the Encompass Comp Plan definition calculation using either the Base or Total Loan Amount. However, the Point value in ICE PPE was always calculated using the Base Loan Amount. With this new setting, a Client admin can align Points and Dollar amount values when using Total Loan Amount.
If the LO Comp came from ICE PPE, both Points and Dollar amount values were always calculated using the Base Loan Amount. With this new setting, a Client admin can choose to calculate Points and Dollar amount values off of either the Base or Total Loan Amount.
-
The default value will be Base Loan Amount for new and existing clients.
-
This applies to the following:
-
User Definition
-
Comp Tiers
-
"Deduct a Wholesale Compensation Margin" Rule Task
-
"Apply LO Compensation" Matrix Action
-
This applies to both ICE PPE and Classic EPPS.

The layout will remain unchanged for mobile devices with a display above 768 pixels.
