Odessa Launches Configurable Attributes – Giving Asset Finance Teams CodeFree Control of Platform Architecture

Asset finance organizations can now scale data models, instantly extend APIs and
automate business logic on the Odessa platform – without vendor dependency.

PHILADELPHIA – July 7, 2026Odessa, the world’s largest dedicated asset finance software provider, today announced Configurable Attributes, a new capability that allows asset finance organizations to adapt the Odessa platform by themselves – without custom code or vendor involvement. Configurable Attributes goes beyond basic data capture: any field a client creates is instantly available across the platform – in the API, in reports, data extracts and business rules that drive pricing and workflows – through a governed, self-service workflow that keeps changes consistent and auditable.

"One of the greatest challenges in enterprise software has been balancing flexibility with governance," said Odessa CEO & President Joe Juliano. "Configurable Attributes gives clients the ability to adapt the platform to their evolving business needs while maintaining the control, consistency and oversight required of a mission-critical platform. Instead of shaping their business around what the software allows, they shape the software around how their business runs.”

Modernization with Control

As asset finance organizations expand into new asset classes, geographies, products and regulatory environments, data-capture requirements change constantly. Historically, even simple field additions required development resources and lengthy deployment cycles.

Configurable Attributes modernizes this process. Authorized administrators can define and manage business-specific data fields for any part of the system without professional services or vendor engagement. Because these changes are structural configurations rather than custom code, they are upgrade-safe through a structured, auditable workflow.

What This Means for Businesses

Because every configured field is instantly live across the platform, clients can put new data to work immediately. If a company launches a new asset class, takes on a different kind of vendor or faces a new reporting requirement, they do not need to ask Odessa to make a change; they simply configure it and go live. This changes the relationship with the platform by delivering immediate, code-free capabilities:

  • Seamlessly Move Data Between Systems: New fields are instantly exposed through the Odessa API, giving clients the ability to manage them remotely and automatically synchronize data maintained in separate systems such as a CRM.
  • Immediate Reporting Without IT Bottlenecks: Configured fields automatically extend the reporting data model. Database queries can reference these attributes as standard columns using simple joins, making it effortless to include them in reports or downstream data extracts.
  • Automated Business Rules Without Code: Attributes are immediately available to business rules and expressions. For example, a client can choose to categorize vendors into distinct groups to drive custom pricing, approvals and workflows based on those groups – without a single line of code.

Scale Without Scaling Costs

The capability addresses a fundamental reality of asset finance: no two lenders capture the same data. With Configurable Attributes, the platform scales alongside business growth – new asset classes, geographies and product lines – while the cost of adapting does not.

Banks can keep pace with evolving regulatory reporting requirements while maintaining strict change control. Captive finance companies can support new products and asset classes without lengthy platform modification projects. Independent lenders can expand into new verticals without depending on dedicated IT resources or external services teams.

“Asset finance moves fast, and our clients shouldn't have to wait to keep up," said Juliano. “Configurable Attributes removes the weeks – sometimes months – of waiting. Clients can make the changes they need and promote them to production right away, allowing their business to move at the speed opportunities demand.”

Powering Global Asset Finance

Configurable Attributes is available today to Odessa clients worldwide, giving banks, captives and independent lenders the agility to future-proof their operations on their terms while maintaining consistency, governance and upgradeability.
