Chapter 4: Importing And Exporting Loan Files
Lender’s Office has an extensive import/export feature that allows you to easily transfer
your loan files from your old LOS directly into Lender’s Office. Similarly, if you need to
transfer loans created in Lender’s Office into a different file format, the export feature
provides the ability to save loans as Calyx Point and Fannie Mae files. Exporting loan
files is typically used when uploading a loan file to a lender’s website for automated
underwriting.

proprietary import/export interface.
