Downloading
electronic client information directly from your insurance carrier or through
your IVANS account.

Click
the Download/Bridge option on the top menu bar. Select Run Download Session.
TIP: Run a download session on a daily basis and
process your client information into InsurancePro. This insures that you will have the most current information
in View/Edit Details in your
clients Policy Summary area.

Click
Yes, if you want to see the list of
client information that was downloaded and/or would like to proceed to upload
the information into InsurancePro. Click
No and you will be able to process it at a later time.

Download Folder shows the folder
where the downloaded information is stored, proceed by clicking on OK.

The system prompts
you it is finished pulling the data from the AI Download Folder, click OK to complete the process.

NOTE: You will see a list of Transactions
populated in the Download Transaction screen. You can review the files
by: Transaction, Client, Type of policy,
Policy #, and Company. A checkmark
must be in the box in front of the Date field in order to proceed with
any changes to be made such as: Delete Selected or Upload Selected
into InsurancePro.
The
Auto Select button is an
option to have the system automatically check for clients that are already in
InsurancePro. When you click Auto
Select the system will search for a policy number and/or then look by
name/address. If it finds the policy it
will put a check in the box beside the client name. Then you would process all
items with checked boxes by selecting the Upload Selected into InsurancePro
button. If the program does not find the
customer it will not check the box. You
will need to determine if you want to upload an unchecked client into your
database and then manually check the box.
TIP: The Auto Select function gives you control
over making sure you want to add the downloaded client. If you have a client already in InsurancePro
but do not have a policy number in that client and it does not find the client
and check them off, it may be due to the name not matching up correctly.

To
upload the client into InsurancePro, make sure the box is checked in front of
that client and click Upload Selected into InsurancePro. You will receive a message that lists the
number of transactions that were transferred depending on how many boxes you
had checked and that it was successful, click OK.
The
Delete Selected button will
remove any clients that you do not want to upload into InsurancePro if the box has
a checkmark in front of that client.

You
may choose to review your client list by a selected date range. Click on the dropdown boxes in the Choose
Dates to View: area to choose your date range. Then click on the Refresh button to the right of the date
fields.
TIP: When you have not
done a daily download session and are downloading multiple days at once, this
feature allows you to view the downloaded information by a selected date range
and find specific policy changes or renewals.
Again we recommend that you run your download session on a daily basis
to avoid confusion when you have multiple transactions coming through on a
particular customer or policy type.

Add from File allows you to browse
your system and pull into the Download Transactions list any clients you
have stored in the AI Download Folder or from any temporary file.

Download Now lets you run another
download session to pull your information from your IVANS account or from
insurance carriers that participate in a direct transfer of client information.
This is similar to the Download/Bridge /Run Download Session process.

View Log opens Notepad
and displays a detailed list of the client information that is being
transferred into InsurancePro.

NOTE: This information also includes
coded data that the system uses to process the information. You may use this as a list to track or check
off which clients were updated.

modify the layout of this information to allow you to read this line by line,
