The current
implementation of the KHI (Key home Improvement) dealer web site
was an application part of Champion Mortgage and was hosted by
Verizon. This will be a re-write of the existing Dot Net based
application to a Java based solution. The project will promote
the application to a portal. The portal solution will give each
dealer the ability to customize the GUI according to their own
requirements.
The following requirements were implemented:
1. Design a one-page Loan input form. The form is designed to
show only the relevant
minimal set of fields on load of the screen. Thereafter
additional fields will be shown
dynamically based on the data entered for certain fields. For
e.g. the screen fields related to co-applicant will show up only
when the loan application type chosen is Joint.
2. The loan details entered should be validated for invalid
inputs and missing information.
3. Upon successful validation of the loan details, it should be
submitted to ACAPS. On submission a unique reference number will
be generated for each Loan Information and displayed to the user
4. Using this reference number, user will be able to fetch the
submitted loan information and view it in a printer friendly
format
5. User Administration related functionalities such as Add
Company, Edit Company, Add User and Edit User will be available
for the Admin users.
