The month end processing is a
simple click of a button and the processes are displayed to an
information window for the administrator to view. Once the process is
complete and the necessary pro rata and current debits/credits have been
created the system generates the file for your chosen collection agency
to submit to the ACB. The system can be configured in two ways to do the
collection:
1.
One debit will be generated for the policy whereby this
incorporates the total of premium to be collected for the policy; or
2.
Transactions can be split between current month debits and double
debits or pro rata debits which in turn would create two debits to the
client’s bank account.
Although
the latter is slightly more costly it does have the benefit of at least
one of the debits still being met should the client have insufficient
funds for both. It also allows the client to see the additional debit
along with his normal transaction and hopefully recognize the pro rata
amount.
Once
the month end processing is completed, (and should you have brokers) a
list of clients that are going to be debited shall be e-mailed to the
broker. A complete set of policy schedules (in HTML and password
protected) is also e-mailed to the broker. The client receives either an
e-mail message or a SMS (or both) informing him of the debit taking
place.
