4. Sales Lead

The Sales Lead screen enables you to record information gathered during a sales query or a call from a potential borrower. A sales representative can then use the Sales Lead screen to follow-up with the borrower. This is not a mandatory screen. You can always begin the lease origination process directly using the Application Entry screen.

Information on the Sales Lead screen can be attached to the Application Entry screen as optional information. Attaching a lead to an application can help the sales department analyse the effectiveness of following-up with prospective borrowers. Once a lead is attached to an application from the Sales Lead screen, Oracle Financial Services Lending and Leasing changes its status to COMPLETED.
