The EPC 2.0 May '25 release is scheduled for May 17, 2025. With this release, we've included the following new features and improvements:

Platform updates

The following EPC platform updates are included in this release:

New EPC Categories HMDA and HOI [EPC-37084]: To support HMDA partners, two new EPC categories, HMDA and HOI (Home Owners' Insurance), have been added with this release.

This is supported on both desktop and web interfaces of Encompass.

Workflow Engine [EPC-40171]: To support lenders configuring Workflow Engine (WFE) rules to trigger service order updates to their partner, EPC now triggers a service order update as long as the associated EPC transaction is not in a status of canceled, failed, or completed. Partners then receive the updated resources and refreshed transactions on in-process transactions to support the required automated workflows.
- When a WFE rule that triggers a Service Order Update (SOU) is configured to 'Active Orders', EPC will trigger a service order update for any orders where the transaction.status is not ['canceled', 'failed', 'completed']. Service orders are considered active, if they are not one of the following: canceled, fulfillmentFailed, fulfilled.
EPC Findings [EPC-33558]: Prior to this release, EPC platform enabled partner findings to be mapped to Encompass Enhanced Conditions. With this release when these Encompass Enhanced Conditions’ status get updated in Encompass, EPC will apply outbound findings status mapping and send notification to the partner who originally sent the finding. This will be sent as a transaction event webhook.

ASO/OneClick orders [EPC-39269, EPC-35885]: Prior to this release, if Service credentials or ASO credential did not exist, ASO/OneClick orders failed at the evaluation level. Since some partners do not need credentials to fulfill orders, to support such partners who do not have credentials, the following enhancement has been included with this release:
- If product has credentials schema with only optional fields, or if product doesn't have credentials schema, credentials are no longer mandatory for evaluation and ASO/OneClick order placement
