The widgets alongside the submission form provide access to a variety of information and controls related to the current submission or policy.

 

 

Generating Quote Reports

The Quote Report provides a detailed listing of the rates calculations, triggers, conditions, and formulas used to generate the quoted premium of a policy transaction.

 

The View Quote Calculations option is available in the Common Screens widget for New Business, Endorsement, Renewal, and Cancellation transactions, for all statuses except Incomplete.  The transaction must be quoted and a quote option must be selected.  For Endorsements and Cancellations, only the last transaction in the term is supported.  The report opens in a new tab or new window, depending on the settings of the browser.

 

The Quote Report Header table lists the details of the transaction and term.

Note:  The Calculated Amount column displays the final amount that was added or deducted from the premium at that stage of the calculations.

Notes:  When opening the report, the submission or policy is not saved.

The report only uses the last calculated and saved values.  If any changes have been made, a new quote must be calculated before generating a new quote report.

This report only shows quote results according to the settings in the master cover.  It does not include any manual changes to premiums, limits, deductibles, or the insuring conditions.
