There is a new import format called “Field Data Compare.”  This import will allow a user to compare data within two separate HMDA files.

After clicking Import Data, an import report will display that lists the differences between the two HMDA files. In the example below, multiple applications have a different value for Loan Type. It will list out records that are not found in either LAR and for the records that are matched on Application Number it will compare each field of the LAR.

Users now have the ability to view a map of a Geographical CRA Peer Set or Unit as long as that Unit is defined at a County, MSA or State level.

When a user creates a Redlining Dataset by importing an existing HMDA or CRA file, they now have the ability to filter the data before creating a new dataset.

When a user selects a BISG Proxy Type, they will no longer have the option to select a proxy for race or ethnicity, as a BISG selection will proxy those for you.

Assessment Area

The Tracts List report has been updated to include the ability to group the tracts by county. The user will click the button in the upper left hand corner that says, “Group by County.”

When a user chooses the option to “Select Applications” or “Select Loans” to export in the HMDA Application or CRA Loan list, the exported document will now reflect the number of records selected rather than the total number of records in the file.
