Prerequisites
Before digging into the error messages, make sure you have integrated your BrokerEngine account with your Suite360 account and entered FLEX credentials.
Next, make sure everybody on your broker team has Suite360 access. If the broker has a Suite360 account but the currently logged-in team member does not, that team member cannot generate a credit guide request on behalf of the broker.
Starting with the basics
Users can sometimes solve errors with a quick fix. Try these steps first.
Clear the browser history (Chrome and Firefox) and then refresh the page.
Go to the Integrations (Account icon > Settings > Integrations). Disconnect the 360 integration and then reconnect with your account.
Click the Regenerate icon near the error message. Yes, it's a long shot, but it does work on occasion.
Understanding the error messages
If a quick fix cannot solve the problem, BrokerEngine displays an error message. The table below lists the possible error types and solutions.

Understanding error 13
This is the most common error. There are four possible causes and four solutions.
a. Incorrect FLEX permissions (common for loan writers and admin users)
The user's FLEX login is set to AFG Loan Writer - No Commissions. To confirm, contact your AFG Partnership Manager and ask if the current permissions grant the broker access to the Credit Guide.
Solution - Change the user's FLEX permissions to Master Agent.
b. Wrong user login
This error can occur when the user has access to two or more broker/ FLEX org accounts. The user logs into one account (with one set of integration credentials on the Settings page) and tries to generate a credit guide that sits inside a different account/org (with different credentials). Basically, the user is logged into one account and gets an error message because they're trying to access a feature in a different account.
Solution - Confirm the login accounts are not mismatched. If that does not solve the problem, contact the BrokerEngine support team.
c. Wrong org
AFG organises accounts into tiers: parent orgs and child (or sub) orgs. A user in a parent org can generate credit guides for any account in the parent org or related lower-tier child orgs. Those permissions do not work in reverse. A user logged into a child org cannot generate a credit guide for an account in a higher-tier parent org.
Solution - Contact your AFG Partnership Manager or the BrokerEngine support team to confirm your org.
d. Wrong 360 account
The broker has multiple Suite360 orgs (e.g. Jack1 and Jack2) and enters the wrong account credentials on the BrokerEngine integrations page. In effect, there is an account mismatch.
Solution - Log in to your BrokerEngine account incognito, disconnect Suite360, and then reconnect with the correct account credentials for the current BrokerEngine account.
Best practice tip
If you have multiple Suite360 accounts, enter integration credentials with your browser in incognito mode to avoid potential conflicts with the saved history.
Credit Guide not Generating
This final error is rare, but it does occur. The user tries to generate a credit guide, but the status changes to Not Sent Generating. There is no error message, but the page seems frozen.
The cause is a comedy of Monty Python-esque errors. One logged-in user tries to generate a report and gets an error message. At that same moment, another user logs in, sees the error, and refreshes the page. The backend server gets overwhelmed with conflicting instructions and freezes.
The solution is simple and elegant.
Open the card in full view mode.
Go to the top of the page and click the More link.
Select Disable Credit Guide and then Continue in the confirmation popup. BrokerEngine automatically removes the Credit Guide request on the FinanceVault page.
Click the More link again and select Enable Credit Guide. Go back to the FinanceVault page and generate the credit guide.
Alternative Solution for Multiple Accounts
Open browser in Incognito mode
Login to BrokerEngine
Go to Integrations > Suite360
Click “Connect”
Login using correct email address
