How to Create a New Invoice for a Borrower

Audience: Sales Associates, Store Managers, Loan Officers
Topic: Origination & Offer Management
Prerequisite: The Application must be in the Offers stage (Approved).

Overview

In the PayPlan workflow, an application often starts with a general approval limit (e.g., "Approved for up to $2,000"). To finalize the financing terms, you must create a specific Invoice that tells the system exactly what items the customer is purchasing and the final dollar amount required.

This guide outlines the steps to generate an invoice and select the final offer.

1. Click "Offers"
