Application workflows are customizable conditions your team can configure automatically filter and action applications that meet certain criteria.
Applications can be flagged or rejected, saving your team time and energy.
Warning: Once application workflows are configured, all applications that are not flagged or rejected will automatically be approved. When setting up your workflows, we recommend starting with credit score, and rent to income.
