The Dashboard Tab (User), Client Tab, Company Tab, Vendor Tab, Management Tab, and Policy Express are the primary dashboards within Agency Systems.

The management tab provides several instant reports for agency managers, including a book of business that can easily be broken down by policy or line of business, and a bar graph of income and expense over time.

The management tab requires the following security settings:

Management: Navigation

The Management tab contains a top toolbar of global options, and a profile drop-down box for each of the sub-tabs to select a specific profile.

  • Profile: Edit the profile for the currently selected sub-tab of operator, company, class, or vendor.
  • Add Tab: Create an additional Client, Company, or Vendor tab.
  • Client: Perform a Client Keyword Search. The resulting client will automatically create a new client tab. Select the drop-down to create a new client.
  • Policy: Perform a Policy Keyword Search. The resulting client will automatically create a new client tab.
  • Insured: Perform a Named Insured Keyword Search. The resulting client will automatically create a new client tab. The Named Insured filter will be applied to the Diary, Submissions, Policies, and Attachment bands. This button is only visible if the agency type is a GA, or if the option to show the insured search is enabled.
  • Find: Displays the find window to find a value displayed on the dashboard.
  • Refresh: Refreshes the currently selected tab, without removing any applied filters.
  • Reports: Opens the Automatic Reports window or the MyNewtonCampus.com Add-ons window.
  • Wiki: Opens the help documentation on the Newton Wiki for the management tab.

Management: Selecting a Profile

Each of data tabs for Operator, Company, Class or Vendor share similar navigation options.

Select the drop-down box to view a a specific code, or enter the code in the drop-down field and press <Enter> or <TAB> when finished. By default, inactive profiles are not included in the drop-down list. To load an inactive profile, first select the "Include Inactive Operators/Companies/Vendors" check box.

Expand the information bands to display information for a specific profile. Select the All Summary or All Details buttons within the toolbar to list all profile items for the currently selected tab.

Management: Operator Tab

To view an operator’s active policy list, select the operator’s name and expand the Active Policies band. All currently active policies, quotes (If checked in the top toolbar), and binders where the selected operator is the client CSR, policy producer, or policy sub-producer are listed.

  • The same totals available throughout the system will be listed at the bottom of the list, as well as the familiar Right-Click -> Copy option.
  • The operator’s list of expiring policies can be accessed by expanding the Expiring Policies band below Active Policies.
  • Select All Summary to view a complete list for all active operators, with a total for each operator. Each total includes currently active policies, quotes (If checked in the top toolbar), and binders where the selected operator is the client CSR, policy producer, or policy sub-producer. Inactive operators will be included in the summary automatically if Show Inactive is currently selected.
  • The All Summary view does not include grand totals, since the same policy premium may be listed under both a policy producer, policy sub-producer, or client CSR.
  • Select All Details to view a complete list for all active policies in the database. This selection will not exclude items based on operator inactive/active status.
  • Select Include Quotes to add quotes to any of the available lists.

The Operator -> All Details tab also contains an agency-wide Expiring Policies band below the Active Policies band. The Expiring Policies band contains date range buckets similar to the operator-specific bands previously available from both the User Dashboard and Management Tabs.

In addition, the vendor tab also has an attachments band for saving secure attachments to a specific vendor, similar to the existing operator and company sections on the management tab.

Management: Secure Attachments

The management tab allows for attachments for operators, companies, and vendors.

Anything attached through drag-and-drop from within the management tab is only visible from the management tab.

The attachment band on each management tab includes a right click option to remove the private attachment filter that is on by default.

Removing the filter will show both private attachments, and items attached to the public areas. For companies or vendors, this will include attachments on the company or vendor tabs. For operators this will include all items visible on the dashboard.

Private attachments are listed in red, and public attachments listed in black.
