Creating Flag Labels

1. From the Admin tab, click the Flags sub tab on the left-hand side of the screen. The following screen will appear:

2. Choose the Flag color.

3. If desired, select a Special Type. There are two special types to choose from:

• • Agent Incentive – If this type is selected the text entered for this flag type will print on the offer form.

  • Fannie Mae BPO – This function is for future use, but when used, it will automatically add this flag to a property when Fannie Mae puts out a BPO order on the property. Then, after the order date, when a BPO is created for the property, it will be deleted.

4. Enter a label for the flag in the Type field (for example: Personal Property Hold).

5. Click Add.

Important:

• A property can have multiple flags attached to it as well as multiples of the same flag label.

• All flags you create will appear on the Flag Type list directly beneath the Add New Flag Type dialog box. This list cannot be edited. If you wish to rename a flag or designate a new Special Type, you must recreate the flag label following the steps above.

  • You can only create one label (Type) per flag color.

• You can delete any flag label that you create. The flags, however, cannot be deleted. If you have a particular flag color attached to a property and you delete the label (Type), the flag will remain attached, but without a label.

• Flags can be customized at the property level. For information on attaching flags to properties and/or customizing flags, see Flags.
