Questionnaire - Coverages

Understand how Coverage fields operate in Tide

Policies issued to the Insured may include one or many different Coverages. These are then presented in Bordereaux. There are approximately 250 different Coverages that may be captured in Tide, and different Bordereau formats may have different collections of Coverages included.

To cater for this variability, Tide captures the Coverage fields in a Bordereaux within a grid in the Coverages step of the Risk, Risk and Premium, and Premium Bordereau Questionnaire. 

To add a new Coverage, select + ADD NEW COVERAGE, which opens the New Coverage modal window. You'll first be asked to select the Coverage you are adding from a drop down (as this is not expected as a column in the Bordereau). You'll then be asked a series of questions to populate the following Coverage fields ('Coverage' in the field names below will be replaced with the 'Coverage Type' specified when view on the Data screen):

  • Coverage Included Flag
  • Coverage Currency
  • Coverage Total Sums Insured
  • Coverage Limit
  • Coverage Deductible/Excess Type
  • Coverage Deductible/Excess Amount
  • Coverage Deductible/Excess %
  • Coverage Deductible/Excess Basis 
  • Coverage Premium

When you process Bordereaux, they will populate each of these fields, and Tide will know to associate these with the Coverage Name that you selected.
