BriteQuote Suspensions settings
The Suspension Mapping setting enhances the agent quoting process by providing agents with vital information about restricted areas such as closed, burn-prone, and flood-prone regions. This functionality aims to empower agents to make informed decisions, preventing them from proceeding with quotes in these restricted areas. The suspension map is integrated into the quote wizard, offering a clear visualization of areas with suspensions based on zip codes. When choosing the type of suspension, various options are available, including binding authority, suspension of application submission, suspension of quoting, suspension of the straight-through process, and suspension of endorsements.
