Loan teams can create and save custom follow-up group templates and easily apply them to an application. You can create a checklist once in Blend and reuse it when needed.
Set up a Follow-up template
1. Click Your settings.
2. Click Account from the drop-down option.
3. Select Follow-ups.
4. Click Create Add next to the Follow-up templates section.
Note: You have the choice to create Email templates and Follow-ups templates.
5. Complete the following:
a. Name the follow-up template (no duplicate names)
b. Begin adding items to your template
c. Modify copy and replace with personalized messaging if you prefer
6. Click Save.
Note: You can only access the follow-up templates that you create. We do not support the sharing of templates.
7. After saving the template, you will be redirected to the follow-up template pipeline. You can see all your existing templates. Click View.
8. To delete a template, click the three dots next to the template and click Delete.
Note: You can only view or delete a template once it has been created. We do not support the ability to edit a template. Additionally, you can also access the follow-up template page by selecting 'Start from template' and clicking 'Manage'.
Apply a Follow-Up template to an application
1. Click Add and select from the following options:
a. Start a follow-up list from a template
b. Start a new list
2. You can select multiple follow-ups templates to apply.
3. Your specific templates will show up under My Templates and your our organization level templates show up under the Default Templates section.
Notes:
- If you select 2+ templates and a follow-up item exists in both templates, Blend will not duplicate these items.
- Once you apply these templates to an application, you can modify the individual follow-ups or add any additional follow-ups as needed. At any point, you can save your follow-up list and come back later, or continue and send.
- If you need something e-signed or if you need the borrower to review a document, you will still have to upload the documents at this stage.
