Per our group meeting discussion a few weeks ago, below is the email interaction between myself and Bruce Westman: If you recall, I sent Bruce an email regarding the possibilities of getting more options with the policy status field: Bruce, I wanted to send you an email directly in hopes gain insight into the possibilities of making a Sagitta system change. In short, we are looking for the ability to add additional Policy Status types. Currently, only NEW and REN are available and it is extremely difficult to track vertical and horizontal growth with just these two fields. The addition of NBE (New Business Existing) and BOR (Broker of Record) type codes would solve this issue. This is a major issue as we expand our use and automation of Sagitta. Programs and tools such as Direct Bill Commission Download are impossible to incorporate into lines of business where a commission is paid as the only choice for policy status is NEW or REN. This issue/request has been entered into PERS (#2414 and #2549) with several votes but no notes to indicate where the request stands. Any assistance you can provide is greatly appreciated. Bruce's response: Hi There!! I can tell you that the BOR code has come up a lot recently and in the next major release (Post 7.5) which will be '09 it will contain a lot of Accounting changes AND the BOR code will most likely be in the first wave of changes. I will also bring up NBE but that will be the first release that we will able to address this.... Hope that helps!! Bruce I appreciated his response as he conversed directly and could have easily fluffed me off and I am hopeful that what I am looking for will be incorporated. IMHO there are still some issues with the priorities and management of AMS development and AMSUG R&D and I don't think we'll ever get the answers and information we want in those areas...
