This article explains how to create Endorsements from the Endorsements tab in a Policy


Overview of Endorsements

  • Endorsements let you amend or cancel policies
  • You can only add one endorsement at a time; an endorsement must be issued before you can create a new one.
  • BindHQ supports non-sequential endorsements in case you need to issue endorsements in a non-chronological order (based on the Effective Date).
  • If this creates a conflict in the system, you may need to invalidate an endorsement and then re-add it.
  • Policy amendments are made by creating endorsements from the 'Endorsements' tab in the relevant Policy section

Creating an Endorsement

  1. Navigate to a Policy and select the Endorsements tab.
  2. On the left, click Add Endorsement.

    Note: Endorsement 0 is auto-generated when the Policy is bound within the platform, but it is not 'issued'.  Before creating a new endorsement, you must ensure that you 'issue' the policy Endorsement.

    The Endorsement pop-up opens.

  3. Fill in the fields to populate the endorsement document, then click the button labeled with your Line of Business.

    Note: The Description text is pulled into the endorsement document.

  5. After finalizing the endorsement details, click Save Endorsement on the bottom right.
