DAM Steps

The Application Processing Module uses the Data Acquisition Module to obtain consumer credit report data from credit reporting agencies (CRAs). Data acquisition requests are submitted to the DAM. The DAM response contains credit report data, which is then used for further processing of the credit application. Apart from the DAM actions that are configured in the FASt, you can create additional DAM steps. When you use the DAM step in a workflow, APM uses the DAM parameters to invoke the module and references these parameters from the om_apm_dam_adapter espace.
For a DAM workflow step, specify the following parameters:
