Activities are used to tracking the stages of the Account Review process.
There are two options when creating Activities: Policy Activity and Customer Activity.
- The commonly used, Policy Activity, which regards only one policy requires completion of the policy dropdown fields within the Activity form.
- A Customer Activity is achieved by leaving blank the policy fields, signaling that the Activity applies to multiple polices, perhaps renewing on the same date.
The combination Activity/Suspense form has now opened and ready for input. Note that the policy information has prefilled for your convenience.
