Compliance review with Auditor role

A compliance officer needs to review an application — applicant data, underwriting, offers, documents, and activity — without changing status, sending email, or adding notes.


What you use


Worked example

An Auditor at Riverbend is asked to review application 18402 after a fair-lending complaint.

  1. They sign in with an Auditor role and open Applications.
  2. They open the file. Tabs for application data, underwriting, offers, documents, and activity are available to read.
  3. They cannot use Update Status, request OTP, send email, create tasks, or add internal notes. Assignee is visible but not clickable.
  4. They download a PDF if the review requires an export. They do not change the file.
  5. They report findings outside the dashboard (your compliance process), using only what they could see.

Best practices

  • Use Auditor for read-only reviews. Do not share a Tenant Admin or Underwriter login to “just look.”
  • Expect hidden buttons. Do not treat a missing control as the only protection — the server still enforces what Auditor cannot change.
  • Align PDF download and any decrypt access with your compliance policy. Auditor can still download PDFs.
  • If the reviewer must change status or send email, that is not an Auditor job — assign an Underwriter or Admin.
