Scenario

U+ Bank is cross-selling on the web by showing various credit cards to customers. Because of the limit for each card, credit cards are unsuitable for customers if their credit score is less than 600 due to the likelihood of default.

The credit score value is available in the data model, and external processes populate the value in a nightly batch. However, a credit score is not computed for every customer.

As a result, the business wants a scorecard that computes a customer's credit score if the score is not available.
