Third Party Integration of Leases

You can create pending leases by entering the lease details and financial terms to the interface tables. Validations are done to the data in the interface tables and pending leases are created if there are no errors. You can also activate multiple leases at once.

The PeopleTools Excel to Component Interface utility enables you to enter the lease transactions into the interface tables.
