Insuring Conditions

Insuring Conditions are preset blocks of legal text (clauses) that define the conditions of insurance depending on various factors in the submission.  Using triggers, conditions can be included or excluded from the Insuring Conditions field based on the choices and data the user has entered in the submission form, all determined during the calculation of a quote.  The quote calculation itself has a specific sequence of events which could affect the calculations, click here for more information.
