Why Choose Salesforce as Your Mortgage CRM?

Centralized Data Storage & Management Salesforce Mortgage CRM consolidates all your mortgage data into a single platform, offering a unified view of client information, loan details, and transaction history. This eliminates the confusion of scattered data, ensuring brokers have quick access to crucial information. For instance, if a client calls with questions about their loan, brokers can immediately retrieve accurate details, enhancing trust and improving the client experience. Accurate Loan Forecasting With AI-driven data analytics, Salesforce provides actionable insights into future loan opportunities, potential risks, and projected income. By analyzing historical data, brokers can predict client behavior, such as the likelihood of refinancing. This proactive approach allows brokers to deliver tailored offers, increasing conversions and client satisfaction. Seamless Collaboration & Secure Data Sharing Effective communication within an organization is essential, and Salesforce Mortgage CRM excels at connecting team members across locations and devices. Features like document management ensure efficient workflows through version control, rights management, and advanced search capabilities. Brokers can also share select records or documents securely with external stakeholders by granting limited access, ensuring confidentiality while streamlining the lending process. Top-Notch Security Salesforce Mortgage CRM prioritizes data security with multi-level protocols, including multi-factor authentication, data encryption, 24/7 monitoring, and an advanced Trust Layer. These features ensure that sensitive client information, such as financial and personal data, is safeguarded, fostering confidence among potential borrowers. Personalized Client Interactions Every client’s journey is unique, and Salesforce empowers brokers to deliver personalized experiences. For example, if a client’s fixed-rate term is nearing its end, Salesforce can automate outreach with refinancing options. This level of personalization improves client satisfaction and strengthens retention strategies. In-Depth Analytics and Visualization Salesforce offers robust analytics tools to provide mortgage professionals with insights into client behavior, market trends, operational performance, and risk factors. Interactive dashboards and customizable reports enable brokers to visualize metrics like loan-to-value ratios, debt-to-income ratios, and delinquency rates. These insights help streamline operations, improve profitability, and mitigate risks. Automation and AI-Powered Assistance Salesforce integrates cutting-edge AI tools to automate routine tasks, segment clients, and deliver tailored recommendations. Brokers can use these tools to identify refinancing opportunities, streamline workflows, and increase efficiency. While advanced AI features may require premium subscriptions, Salesforce also provides no-code automation capabilities. Tools like Salesforce Flow allow users to create automated workflows for tasks such as data entry, follow-ups, and approvals. For complex workflows, Flow Orchestrator enables brokers to coordinate multi-step processes seamlessly. These automation features eliminate manual tasks, freeing brokers to focus on high-value activities. Streamline Your Lending Process with Salesforce Mortgage CRM Whether you’re looking to centralize your data, enhance client relationships, or improve operational efficiency, Salesforce Mortgage CRM offers a comprehensive solution. Its combination of AI, analytics, and automation ensures that your team can work smarter, not harder. Ready to transform your mortgage business? Let Salesforce help you achieve greater efficiency and client satisfaction today. Unlock the Full Potential of Mortgage Lending with Salesforce Mortgage CRM Automation Without AI Salesforce Mortgage CRM streamlines repetitive tasks through its no-code automation capabilities, removing the need for AI. Salesforce Flow allows brokers to create automated workflows triggered by specific events, such as follow-up tasks, reminders, or status updates. For more intricate workflows, Flow Orchestrator provides seamless coordination for multi-step processes, including approvals, ensuring a smooth lending experience. Whether sending monthly statements or routing documents between stakeholders in the approval process, Salesforce Mortgage CRM automates these tasks based on your predefined rules. For enterprises, Financial Services Cloud (FSC) offers pre-built templates to manage mortgage applications. For SMBs, building tailored flows from scratch can be a more efficient and cost-effective solution, offering greater customization without overpaying for unused FSC features. An excellent example of Salesforce’s versatility is integrating scheduling tools like Calendly with borrower portals built in Experience Cloud. These portals allow clients to book appointments while considering time zone differences and send automated reminders, ensuring seamless borrower engagement. Platform Customization and Scalability Salesforce is an agile platform that adapts to your business needs. Need custom fields for underwriting criteria? A new object to track loan pipeline opportunities? Or automated workflows to manage approvals? Salesforce’s intuitive point-and-click configuration tools empower you to customize your system without complex coding, making it a perfect fit for businesses of any size. Seamless Integration with Third-Party Tools Salesforce’s vast ecosystem, powered by the AppExchange, offers over 7,000 add-ons to enhance your CRM’s functionality. From digital signature solutions to mortgage rate comparison tools, these integrations eliminate the need for extensive custom development. If your unique needs aren’t met by existing options, Salesforce’s certified AppExchange partners can help create tailored solutions. Salesforce Products Tailored for Mortgage Lending Firms 1. Financial Services Cloud (FSC) FSC is purpose-built for the financial services industry, including mortgage lending. It provides a 360-degree view of clients, integrating their financial holdings, activities, and loan details. With FSC, lenders can offer personalized recommendations, streamline the underwriting process, and stay compliant with industry regulations using built-in risk management tools. 2. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement (Pardot) Pardot empowers lenders to engage potential borrowers effectively. For example, a mortgage firm targeting first-time homebuyers can use Pardot to create automated, personalized email campaigns, nurturing leads with tailored content about loans, interest rates, and homebuying tips.Real-time insights and Einstein-powered predictive lead scoring help mortgage professionals prioritize high-value leads and track engagement through detailed campaign performance metrics, such as Multi-Touch Attribution Reports. 3. Experience Cloud For mortgage firms looking to provide a self-service option, Experience Cloud allows for building custom portals and websites. Borrowers can use these portals to upload documents, track application statuses, and access loan details. The drag-and-drop design tools and pre-built templates make it easy to create branded, user-friendly interfaces without requiring extensive coding. 4. Service Cloud Customer service is critical in the mortgage process, and Salesforce Service Cloud enhances this experience with omnichannel support across email, chat, and phone. Borrowers can quickly get answers to questions about their applications, while automation retrieves and shares relevant data instantly. This improves response times, reduces manual effort, and ensures borrowers receive

Winter 25 Updates and Retirements

The Winter ’25 updates and retirements are available through the pre-release program. On August 30, 2024, Sandboxes will be upgraded, providing your organization with the Winter ’25 release experience. Connecting Unified Knowledge to Third-Party SystemsSteps to Implement: Before adding a connector, review the connector requirements in the Zoomin documentation. Then, in Setup, enter “Unified Knowledge” in the Quick Find box and select it. Click “Add a Source” and choose your desired connector. Help Agents Prioritize Cases with Milestone TrackingEnhance your agents’ ability to prioritize cases and maintain high service standards by tracking the time remaining for case milestones. With the “Time to Next Milestone” column in the case list view, agents can easily identify overdue, nearly due, or paused cases. This feature previously lacked a clear prioritization indicator, especially when managing multiple cases.Steps to Implement: Open the case list view and check the “Time to Next Milestone” column to see the time left for the current milestone and when the next one begins. Use sorting and filtering options to focus on cases with overdue or paused milestones. Feature Renaming and Retirement Developer’s Point of View Quickly Develop Lightning Web Components with Real-Time Preview (Beta)Speed up LWC development using Local Dev (beta), which provides a real-time preview of your Lightning app or Experience Cloud site. The preview updates automatically as you make code changes, helping you iterate faster without needing to deploy or refresh manually. This new experience is an improvement over the limited capabilities of the LWC Local Development Server.Steps to Implement: To enable Local Dev, go to Setup, search for “Local Dev” in the Quick Find box, and select it. Then, enable Local Dev (Beta) for all users in your org. Gain Insight into Component Code with LWS DistortionsDebug your Lightning Web Security (LWS) components by toggling specific distortions on and off to observe different behaviors. Steps to Implement: Enable debug mode in your Salesforce org.

The Lightning Language Server extension for VS Code can automate this setup for Salesforce DX projects. Prepare for Native Shadow DOM in Base Lightning ComponentsSalesforce is updating base Lightning components to support native shadow DOM for better performance and standards compliance. Ensure your tests do not depend on the previous internal DOM structure of these components. Track Apex Exceptions with Free-Tier Event MonitoringNow, you can track unhandled exceptions in Apex code using free-tier Event Monitoring, which provides detailed logs for troubleshooting.Steps to Implement: Review and analyze Apex Unexpected Exception event logs instead of relying on email alerts. Understand SOQL Error ChangesRecent updates may affect Apex code that parses SOQL error messages, particularly dynamic SOQL code.Steps to Implement: Review these changes and update your code as necessary to handle new error messages. Consistent Behavior When Iterating SetsIn API version 62.0 and later, modifying set elements during iteration will throw an exception, providing more consistent behavior.Example Code: apex Copy code Set<String> set_string = new Set<String>{‘one’, ‘two’, ‘three’}; for (String str : set_string) { System.debug(str); set_string.remove(str); // This will throw an exception in API 62.0+ } Write Mock SOQL Tests for External ObjectsIncrease your Apex test coverage and quality by mocking SOQL queries for external objects using the new SOQL stub methods.Steps to Implement: Create mock test classes by extending the System.SoqlStubProvider class and overriding the handleSoqlQuery() method. Register the mock provider using Test.createSoqlStub(). Process Platform Events at Scale with Parallel SubscriptionsImprove the processing of high-volume platform events in Apex triggers by using parallel subscriptions, allowing simultaneous event processing.Steps to Implement: Use the Tooling API or Metadata API to configure parallel subscriptions by specifying the event field for partitioning and the number of partitions in PlatformEventSubscriberConfig. Salesforce Flow Enhancements Flow Orchestrator Enhancements Customize the Flow Orchestration Work Guide Component Overview: Tailor how the Flow Orchestration Work Guide component appears to users based on their assigned tasks.

End of Support for Workflow Rules and Process Builder

Every month Salesforce announces retirement and sundowning of products and features. For long-time Salesforce power users, this one feels like the end of an era. Salesforce has announced the end of support for Workflow Rules and Process Builder in 2025. Scheduled Paths are a replacement for Scheduled Actions in Process Builder and Time-Based Workflow Rules. And they even have some new and improved features like support for minutes! Flows can now call other sub-flows, a much-longed-for replacement for Process Builder’s ability to call Flows. End of Support for Workflow Rules and Process Builder Salesforce will no longer be supporting Workflow Rules and Process Builder on December 31, 2025, and we recommend that you migrate your automation to Flow Builder by that time. Have you taken advantage of all the powerful features of Flow? Not yet? Have no fear, and go with the Flow! We’ve curated a comprehensive guide of resources to take you from zero to hero on your journey with us to migrate your organization from Workflow Rules and/or Process Builder onto the newer and more powerful engine of Flow! Why move to Flow? What’s happening with Workflow Rules and Process Builder? Salesforce is starting the process of moving away from Workflow Rules and Process Builder, and transitioning to the more feature-rich functionality of Flow. You’re also probably wondering why Salesforce is retiring Workflow Rules and Process Builder. Salesforce wants to focus development on a modern, extensible, low-code automation solution in Flow Builder, which led to retire the previous features. What does this change mean for me? If you have active Workflow Rules or Process Builder processes running after 2025, they will no longer receive customer support or bug fixes. What action can I take? We recommend implementing a plan to migrate any active rules or processes to Flow Builder before the deadline. Depending on the complexity of your org, this migration may take a significant amount of time and testing, so we recommend starting now. To assist in the migration process, we have a Migrate to Flow tool and extensive support resources available. What happens if I don’t take action? After December 31, 2025, Workflow Rules and Process Builder may continue to function and execute existing automation, but customer support will not be available, and bugs will not be fixed. How do I identify affected users? You can identify whether you have active workflow rules by going to Setup | Process Automation | Workflow Rules and sorting the Active column for checkmarks. You can identify whether you have active Process Builder processes by going to Setup | Process Automation | Process Builder and sorting the Status column for Active. If you have more questions, open a case with support via Salesforce Help. To view all current and past retirements, see Salesforce Product & Feature Retirements. What does the transition to Flows entail? The transition is set to take place in multiple phases. The first phase began with the Winter ’22 release, wherein the ability to create net-new Workflow Rules was turned off. In Summer ‘23 release the ability to create net-new processes in Process Builder will be disabled. In the last phase, Workflow Rules and Process Builder will go away entirely, and any platform automation will be leveraging Flow. This phased approach will allow administrators ample time to transition to Flow with as minimal effort as possible. What changed in the Winter ’22 release? As of Winter ’22, we’ve blocked the creation of Workflow Rules. You can still activate, deactivate, and edit any existing Workflow Rules. To test and create Workflow Rules for use in managed packages, developer orgs still allow you to create Workflow Rules. Process Builder has remained unaffected during this period. For new automation, use Flow. Link to Release Notes What changed in the Summer ’23 release? Starting in Summer ’23, Salesforce began blocking the creation of Process Builder Processes. Much like workflow rules above, you can still activate, deactivate, and edit any existing Processes. For new automation, use Flow. How can existing Workflow Rules & Processes be transitioned to Flow? A tool called “Migrate to Flow” allows you to covert existing Workflow Rules & Processes to Flow in an org, at the click of a button. More information about this tool can be found here. There are a few considerations to keep in mind as we roll out this tool. If your organization relies heavily on existing Workflow Rules or Process Builder, please consider starting the migration process today using the Migrate to Flow tool, rather than when the deadline approaches. This will also allow you to test the migrated Flows in small batches to ensure your organization’s needs are adequately met. How can I get started in Flow? For those with limited exposure to Flows, tinkering in a trailhead playground, demo org, or other non-production org is a great way to explore the capabilities of Flows. Once ready, admins can try creating any new automation needed in their organization in Flows rather than in Process Builder. Trailhead – The best place to start! Build Flows with Flow BuilderRecord-Triggered FlowsAutomate Your Business Processes with Salesforce Flow Automation Home Page – Watch videos, read blog posts, or explore other Trailhead offerings related to Flows. Trailhead Community Topics – Join the discussion!#Flow#Automation What about feature parity between Workflows/Processes and Flows? During the last few releases, many of the biggest parity gaps between Workflow Rules/Process Builder and Flow have been addressed already, including: Additionally, more and more gaps are being addressed with each new release. What about Approval Processes, Email Alerts, and other functionality operating on the workflow engine? There are no plans to retire any of these auxiliary features; however, each of them can be leveraged through flow (or Flow Orchestrator, in the case of approval processes), without the need to use processes or workflow rules at all.

Connect Salesforce to an External API with No Code

Effortlessly establish seamless integration between your Salesforce org and an external API, all without writing a single line of code. Harness the capabilities of declarative tools in conjunction with OpenAPI specifications to define the functionality of the external API. Connect Salesforce to an external API for increased productivity. External Services will autonomously generate invocable actions directly within Salesforce. Whether you prefer low-code, process-driven integrations or aim to enhance your Apex integrations, External Services efficiently handles outbound integrations from Salesforce. Invoke these actions seamlessly from Apex, integrate them into flows, or include them in Einstein bots for smooth interaction with the external API source. Connect Salesforce to an external API to access these benefits. To begin, register OpenAPI 2.0 or OpenAPI 3.0 schemas within External Services. The operations imported from your registered schema effortlessly transform into invocable actions, accessible in Apex or as External Services action types within user-friendly automation tools like Flow Builder, Orchestrator, Einstein bots, or OmniStudio Assets. External Services particularly excels in handling RESTful services hosted externally, especially when the API specification aligns with OpenAPI 2.0 or OpenAPI 3.0 JSON schema formats. Low-code and no-code solutions for Salesforce allow you to build and deploy applications without needing extensive or any coding knowledge. These tools can help to save your business time and money when it comes to software development as well as allow non-technical users to create and customize applications.
