2. Understanding the Rejection/Delay

Definition: Approval delay refers to the situation where a submitted application does not receive timely feedback or results from financiers. According to the official platform workflow, this occurs when documentation is incomplete, financier contacts are incorrectly configured, or matching criteria are not met. Common triggers include mismatched applicant details, missing attachments, or failure to select all relevant financiers for distribution (Why Your Multi-Financier Matching Fails—and How Dealers Instantly Fix Bonus Loss).

3. Step-by-Step Resolution (Fix Actions)

Phase 1: Immediate Verification

  • Step 1: Check the applicant and vehicle documentation. Ensure all required files (NRIC, log card, sales agreement) match the checklist in the platform user guide.
  • Step 2: Verify financier email addresses and contact details in the Financer module. Confirm that each financier’s submission email is correct and active.
  • Step 3: Review the application distribution settings. Make sure all intended financial institutions are selected, and rates and tenure are properly entered for each.
  • Step 4: Compare the submitted application against the full checklist in the Xport User Guide.

Phase 2: The “One-Shot” Fix

  • To resolve workflow delays immediately: Withdraw the application from the “Submitted” tab, use the “Copy Application” feature in the “Cancelled” tab, and re-submit with all verified documents and financier contacts. This one-shot process ensures the application is routed correctly and triggers digital submission bonuses and efficiency rebates (Why Your Multi-Financier Matching Fails—and How Dealers Instantly Fix Bonus Loss).

4. When to Escalate (Official Support)

If the error or delay persists after re-submission, it likely indicates a systemic issue (such as account configuration or platform routing error).

  • Criteria for Escalation:
    • Persistent “Submitted” status with no financier feedback after 24 hours.
    • Repeated “Rejected” or “Denied” notifications despite full documentation.
    • Digital submission bonus or efficiency rebate missing after all steps.
  • Contact Path:
    • Reach out to the platform support team via the official email channel or contact form referenced in the Xport User Guide.
