Actions

While navigating through the workflow in this status, the system performs a series of validations in the background at key points.  The validations may display errors, warnings, or messages with additional information.

•    If any required information for the current screen is incorrect or incomplete, an error message is shown at the top of the form, detailing what must be changed before proceeding.  Make any necessary corrections and click Next or Save & Refresh to validate the information again.

While in Adjustment - Special Quote Requested status, the following actions are available:

•    If the quote details are acceptable, click Issue Quote.  The system validates the quote requirements.  Any errors are displayed at the top of the form, and must be corrected before the quote can be issued.  If all validations pass, this action sets the transaction to Adjustment - Quoted status, ready for review and possibly binding.  Proceed to the section on Adjustment - Quoted Submissions.

•    If the transaction is unsuitable to be quoted or bound, it can be Declined.  This closes the transaction.

1.   Click Decline to refuse coverage for the transaction.  The Decline window opens.

2.   Enter the Rejection Reason.

3.   Click Confirm to proceed, or click Cancel to back out of the Decline window and return to the Adjustment - Referred transaction.

4.   If confirmed, the transaction status changes to Adjustment - Declined, and no further action can be taken on that transaction.  The Rejection Reason is available in the Policy Information detail window.  Proceed to the section on Adjustment - Declined Submissions.

•    Click Bind to accept the quote and payment plan, and bind the policy.  The system validates the bind requirements.  Any errors are displayed at the top of the form, and must be corrected before the submission can be bound.  If all validations pass, the status changes to Adjustment - Bound.  Proceed to the section on Adjustment - Bound Policies.

•    Click Copy to create a new submission with similar information to the current submission.  Depending on settings in the product, individual fields may copy the value from the source transaction, reset to their default values, or be left blank.  The insurer, distributor, and client details are updated to the most recent details stored in the system.  The new submission has the Incomplete status as a New Business transaction.  Proceed to the section on Incomplete Submissions.

•    Click Delete to delete this transaction from the system.

•    The Print Document and Send E-mail options become available if any document templates or e-mail templates, respectively, are currently available.  See the sections on Printing Documents and Sending and Managing E-mails.
