Insurance Research: Can't Find an Existing Product to Link

Issue

When you link an existing policy in Select supplier and products, the client's product isn't listed, or a warning says the supplier doesn't have a match.

Why This Happens

Products are linked from the insurance research library. Suppliers are matched automatically, but supplier names in the client's records don't always match the research library. Products are also listed by PDS issue date, so the wrong date shows a different set of products. Very old products, and some cover types, aren't in the research library at all.

How to Fix It

Supplier warning

  • Select the correct Supplier from the list. The name may differ slightly from the client's records.

Product not listed

  1. Check the PDS issue date matches the client's policy, and try earlier dates if needed.

  2. Under Covers, check the covers selected match the policy. Change them if they don't, then select the product for each cover.

  3. Use Filter Products to search the list.

Product not in the research library

If the product still isn't listed, it can't be linked. You can still:

  • keep the policy in Current Situation and enter its details manually with Edit

  • set its status on the Recommendations tab (for example, Hold or Replace).

Without a link, these aren't available for that policy:

  • the Like for Like comparison

  • Differences in Benefits in the Replacement Analysis.

Cover these in the advice document instead.
