Copy Policy
To reduce the time you spend manually reentering information when you
write a piece of new business similar to an existing policy or split or
merge business on one or more accounts, you can use the Copy Policy action
to copy application and Servicing/Billing information to the same customer,
a new customer, or from a prospect to a customer.
Note: This
action does not copy attachments, transactions, activities, claims, Proofs
of Insurance, or Service Summary information.
- Click on the appropriate policy in the list.
Note: Monoline
and package policies are in bold. Lines of business included in package
policies are not bolded; they are indented and listed beneath the
package policies to which they belong.
- To view in-process and suspended workflows for the selected
line, click the In
Process/Suspended Workflows link. Clicking Suspend History shows all suspensions
for the selected workflow. Clicking a suspension shows its Comments. Click Close to return to the myEpic
- Workflows window. Click the
Close button to close the myEpic
- Associated Workflows window.
- To see the servicing contacts for a specific line of business,
click on the correct line
in the list. In the Line Detail
area, click the Servicing
Contacts link.
- Do one of the following:
- Click Actions
> Copy Policy on the options bar.
- Click Actions
> Copy Policy on the menubar.
- The Copy
Policy window displays. In the Destination
section, select the To
another account or the To
current account radio button.
If you selected To another account,
enter the lookup
code for the client account to which you wish to copy the policy,
or click the lookup
button to locate
the correct account.
- Information from the current policy defaults
into the Structure and Policy Detail sections. Change
this information as needed. Enter a Policy
# if known.
- All the lines of business associated
with the selected policy display. Select the checkbox
for each policy you wish to copy. Click Select/Deselect
All to select or deselect all lines. The associated policy
detail displays below this list. Change this information as needed.
- In the Line
Commission section, select the Default
commission agreement checkbox if applicable.
If you select the Default commission
agreement checkbox, select an Agreement
from the dropdown menu.
- Select
Flat Fee or Percentage
of Premium in the Type
dropdown menu.
If you select Flat Fee, enter
the Amount.
- Click Detail
to proceed with the copy.
Click Cancel
or press [Esc]
to exit the workflow without saving the information.
If the policy you are copying contains a
current, past, or future commission schedule, you are prompted to update
the schedule manually. Click OK.
To update the schedule, access the Pr/Br
Commissions tab in the Servicing/Billing
section of the copied policy. Please note that all current and future
term ranges on the commission schedule carry over to the copied policy,
but any past term ranges are omitted.
For detailed instructions on updating the
commission schedule, see Edit/View Policy
Detail.
Note: The
Service Summary for the copied policy displays a placeholder indicating
that it was copied from another policy. See the Prior
Account placeholder on the Categories/History
tab of the copied policy to view information about the account from which
the policy was copied, the date and time of the copy, and the user who
performed the Copy Policy action.
This information is not retained if the original policy is deleted, however.
