Best Practices for Motor Policy Management
Regular Searches: Perform regular searches for policies nearing expiration to initiate renewal processes
Consistent Data Entry: Use standardized formats for vehicle registration numbers and customer names
Filter Combinations: Combine multiple filters to quickly locate specific policy groups (e.g., all policies for a particular branch expiring within 30 days)
System-Generated Policy IDs
The system automatically assigns policy numbers in a standardized format:
- Prefix may vary by policy type
- Sequential numbering ensures unique identification
- Reference numbers maintain consistent format for reporting
Example policy lifecycle:
- New policy created with number MP0000456
- Policy remains retrievable by number throughout its lifecycle
- Renewal policies may reference original policy number for continuity
Date Format Standards
The system uses YYYY-MM-DD format for all date fields:
- Start Date: Initial coverage date (e.g., 2025-04-02)
- End Date: Final coverage date (e.g., 2025-04-02)
- Date filters apply this same format for consistency
Filter Clearing
Each filter field includes an 'x' indicator that allows:
- Single-click clearing of individual filters
- Reset to default view when all filters are cleared
- Maintaining some filters while clearing others
Data Visibility and Security
- Users can only view policies according to their permission level
- Branch filters restrict visibility based on user access rights
- System maintains audit trail of all policy searches and views
