  • Farmers quote integration

  • Service resolution workflows

  • Service request category triggers for service shot-clock


New Farmers quote integration

With the eCMS end of life around the corner, we have updated the quote links to now create in APEX. This will allow you to seamlessly complete your quotes in the Alta or Guidewire Rater.

As you can see, the links will still be found in the same spot, the lead information will just be send to a different system.

NOTE: Use of the Insurbot Google Chrome extension is no longer needed. These links will be available to all Farmers agents. Just make sure 'Farmers' is selected as the Agency Type here.

To remove the Insurbot Chome extension: As shown below, navigate to your Chrome extensions, click the 3 dots on Insurbot, then click 'Remove from Chrome'.


Service resolution workflows

Up until now, managing a service scenario in AgencyZoom was a two-part process—you complete the service request and then, based on the result, navigate back to the customer profile to take the necessary action. You now have four new options that allow you to take these actions in one, cohesive, workflow.

Cancel and create lead:

In the event that a service or renewal ticket results in a cancellation, you can create a winback lead. This lead will be entered into the smart-cycle, and recycle into your selected pipeline the number of days you set prior to it's x-date. This x-date is automatically calculated based on the current policy(s) term dates.

Cancel:

Just cancel, maybe we don't want to win this customer back. 😆

Renew:

When the policy renews, you now can key the renewed policy information to renew the policy.

Rewrite:

  • If the request results in a re-write, you can key the new policy information.

NOTE: The cancel, renew, and rewrite options will only be available for written policies. If the service request's related policy(s) are synced policies (management system policies), these options will not be available as we do not yet perform these actions in the management system.


Service request category triggers for service shot-clock

If there are certain types of service requests that should be re-assigned or moved, but others not, use the service categories trigger in the shot-clock.
