Search box
Purpose
The Search for a Policy box allows users to type search criteria (policy number, named insured, policy status, policy type, effective date) to generate a list of policies matching the search criteria.
Location
The Search for a Policy box appears on the Policies search screen.
Field default
By default, the Search for a Policy box suggests that you type policy details into the search box.

Change the default
When you type text in the Search for a Policy box and select Search or press Enter/Return on your keyboard, BriteCore identifies and returns policies that match the search criteria.

Usage considerations
The Search for a Policy box can't be customized, and it behaves the same in both the Provider Administrator and Agent portals. The advanced setting enable-new-policy-search must be set to True for the Search for a Policy box to appear. If the advanced setting enable-new-policy-search is set to False, BriteCore’s legacy Search box will appear. If criteria typed into the search box yields one result, you will automatically be directed to the screen of that specific policy. If criteria typed into the search box yields more than one result, all policies that match the criteria will be returned in the policies list table.
