Carriers
Active Carriers are automatically carried over from your brokerage management
system. However, you also have the option of manually adding A Carrier
in CSR24. Once added, Carriers cannot be deleted or inactivated.
If A Carrier exists in CSR24, you have the option of setting up automatic
notification emails/faxes to be sent to the Carrier whenever a certificate
is issued for a policy held by that Carrier. Please note that the Carrier
will receive a separate notification for each time the Carrier is listed
on a certificate template; if A Carrier is listed on a certificate template
three times for different lines of business, the Carrier receives three
emails/faxes when the certificate is issued.
To access the Carriers area:
- From insured detail, click Home
> Configure > Carriers on the options bar.
- From any other area of the program, click Home > Configure > Carriers on
the options bar or click Configure
> Carriers in the navigation panel.
