General Information

The General Information page lists the Bill to Party details such as address and contact details.

If the Same as Policy Information box is checked, the fields are copied from the policy details and cannot be edited.  Unchecking the Same as Policy Information box will allow the details to be changed, but will prevent the system from updating the Bill To Party if changes are made to the core company details.

The panels and fields are described below. Fields marked with a red asterisk * are required.

Same as Policy Information

 

 

 

Defines whether the bill to party information is maintained separately from the core company details, or if it should be updated with any changes made within the Policy module.

When a company is first designated as a bill to party, this option is checked by default and most of the company information is copied in.  All fields are then disabled.

While this option is checked, the bill to party details will be updated to match the core company details each time a payment schedule is selected for that party within a policy transaction.  Selecting Designate as Bill To Party again on the core company screen will also update the information.

If unchecked, all fields can be edited manually and the details will not be changed by the system.  Note that changing details for the bill to party does not affect the core company information in the Policy module.
