Download
Downloaded Properties
Construction Type
Properties created by download will now decode the construction type and use the description instead of the code provided in the company download file. For personal lines, property construction codes such as 'F' will now decode to 'Frame', and 'M' will decode as 'Masonry'. The personal lines construction type was already decoded on the Acord 80: Homeowners Application.
For commercial lines, property codes such as 'J' will now decode to 'Joisted Masonry', and '1' will decode as 'Non-Combustible'. The commercial lines construction type will also decode on Acord forms such as the Acord 140: Property Schedule.
Sublocation Description
Commercial download sublocation descriptions will now download to both the ACORD 140 and ACORD 139 sections of a property schedule. The sublocation description previously displayed on the Download tab.
The sublocation field is designed to distinguish a sublocation from other sublocations at a given location. An example might be "3 story blue structure on the left of the main building."
Many companies choose to mirror the Occupancy Description exactly, while others use it to be more specific.
- Example 1
- Occupancy Description: PSYCHOLOGISTS (66341)
- Sublocation Description: PR Loc: 1 Sub: 1 PSYCHOLOGISTS (66341)
- Example 2
- Occupancy Description: PIZZA PARLOR
- Sublocation Description: 01 ST MAS NONCOMB BLD IN PRT CLS 02
Schedule of Hazards
Schedule of hazards will now populate the premium values and the remarks included with download risk data.
ACORD 126 (2016/09)
If there are more hazards than rows, the ACORD 211 is automatically created by download. This will become more common now that the number of hazards on the 126 has been reduced from 8 to 3.
The 211 Schedule of Hazards is created for additional download types such as BOP, and Commercial Packages that contain hazard schedules.
The option to create the 211 from download can be disabled if desired. Disabling the 211 will revert to creating the remarks form for hazards, unless it is disabled as well.
Forms
Certificate and Certificate Holder Attachments
The ACORD 25 Certificate of Liability Insurance form now supports attaching PDF documents and other files directly to the form. Files attached directly to the form are available to any holder or property interest on the form.
Individual certificate holders and property interests assigned to the form also support separate lists of attached PDF documents and other files. Files attached to a certificate holder are only available to the assigned holder on the assigned form.
After attaching files to the certificate or certificate holders, the process of emailing each individual holder or property interest on a certificate is completed in a single step, regardless of how many holders are on the certificate. The attached files will be automatically included as additional email attachments. Each holder will still receive their completed ACORD 25 Certificate of Liability Insurance form, plus any files attached to the holder profile and form.
