Inviter Data Processing

SOAR is designed as a Software as a Service (SaaS) portal and connects with several platforms to validate banking, tax and address information. The values selected in dropdown menus or entered as free text, including required fields, may have a processing delay to postback information.

When SOAR queries data after selecting or typing in field values, a processing loader is displayed in this format:

Please wait for SOAR to process data and postback. An excessive process loader, no query postback or a nonresponsive field should be reported to GE Healthcare support at SOAR.Helpdesk@ge.com.
