Multi-Root Quoting

Your basic workflow:

1. Create a New Commercial Quote

   To estimate how much a commercial policy would cost, you use a quote. Multi-root quoting allows you to add more than one product to a quote.

2. Configure a Commercial Quote

   Once you have created a Commercial quote, you can configure it to provide your customer with exactly the coverage they need.

After you've created and configured a quote, there are several other things you may want to do and be aware of:

• Quote Rating

  You can rate quotes as many times as you need to during the quoting process. When you rate a quote, optional coverage validation rules and optional coverage relationship rules run, and a price is created and displayed for the coverage.

• Quote Versioning

  You can create and compare quote versions from a Quote record.

• Quote Record Types

  The Type field on the Quote Details tab helps you to differentiate between quotes created for new business and endorsement (mid-term adjustment) quotes.

• Issue a Policy from a Commercial Quote

  You can issue a commercial policy directly from a quote using the Issue Policy button.

• Optional Coverage Rules for Quoting

  When you make changes to insured items, insured parties, and coverages on the Quote UI, optional coverage rules run. Which rules run and what the system does depends on what you've done to the quote.

• Commissions for Quoting

  You can use a variety of commission calculations that apply to individual agents and products in different time periods. You get to choose which events trigger a calculation, including quotes. As agents do business, services calculate and save commission data to quote objects so you can view and report on them.

What's Next

After you have configured the quote and issued policies, you can view and modify them on the Policy (Asset) record.
