Understanding Equipment Finance Application Challenges!
Having the right equipment can enable businesses to transform their service delivery. Applying for this equipment financing loan or equipment lease financing can make short-term financial sense as well as be a long-term asset. Administering an Equipment Finance Application is one of the core services any financial institution provides but it is not always easy. For one it requires multiple guarantors, references, and signatures along the way.
Titan Partner, Amit Midha, was approached by a client who was finding the handling of a lengthy Equipment Finance Application almost impossible. This two-page “monster PDF” meant the client had to sink time and resources into allocating a team to manually input data into Salesforce. This was not feasible or practical in business terms and so they approached Titan hoping to find a solution via its suite of no-code enterprise applications for Salesforce. If this solution were to work, it would need to integrate directly with the client’s Salesforce and remove the need to allocate a team to manually handle the data entry into their CRM, as well as the associated file upload.

More Details on How this Portal Works in Salesforce for Financial Services
In order to log in, all you need is a record in Salesforce with an email added:
Once the customer tries to log in, Titan will check if the email exists in Salesforce. If it does, Titan will send a 2FA authorization code to their email or via text. This code enables you to enter this drag-and-drop portal. Here you can see all relevant applications, as well as their status. Customers can simply click “Continue Application” to resume:
After clicking continue, Titan will have pre-filled all the data you have already submitted saving you time and hassle. You can dynamically add guarantors to your form which are sent to Salesforce in real-time:
See below the new record added to Salesforce:
Updating any of these records is easy to do in your form and this is written to Salesforce in real-time.
You can also collect multiple records and link to Salesforce. In the PDF it is easy but in Salesforce you can create a junction object linked to the application which allows the applicant to create multiple references. Once this junction object is created, in this case called Finance Application references, you can simply click the add references button in your application and fill in the details. Clicking submit will write back to Salesforce, where a record is now created.
You can easily delete records on your form and this will reflect on Salesforce in real time!
When it comes to collecting equipment information, this has a layer of conditional logic with expandable sections. All information filled in here is sent to Salesforce.
Filling in information related to transaction structure follows the same flow by following form logic but when it comes to collecting Financial Information, you need to make sure the relevant files are uploaded to Salesforce.
You can upload any file type to your form. You can both preview and delete any files you don’t want before clicking upload. These documents are sent to Salesforce, checking off the relevant boxes in Salesforce.
In the final section, you can get the document signed by the applicant and authorizer. This can be achieved easily with Titan Sign. Once signed by the applicant, it will go off to the authorized owner of the application in Salesforce who will also sign it. Once signed, this document is sent to Salesforce and you will receive a complete tracking log of the signing process. It will tell you when the document was sent, viewed, and who it was signed by, along with IP addresses.
