Custom insurance design allows selection of insurance details without
restriction. Because custom insurance design allows entry of details which do
not comply with standard insurance company policy designs, premiums must be
manually entered if you select this option.
 |
Standard/Custom |
Allows the selection of standard or customer insurance
design. If you change from standard to custom, the field value
restrictions in this section are removed, and some new fields will appear.
If you change from custom to standard, fields which are outside the valid
range for standard insurance design will be set to conforming values, and
variables not included in standard design will be reset. Back
