How to Finalize a Review / Open a Review

Why leverage the Review process?

Proformex suggests that every policy and annuity be reviewed every 1-3 years to ensure that the needs of the policy Owner are still being met.  Providing your client with a Policy Review documents that the policy was examined.  

Policy Reviews can be reached from both the policy level, from the Policy Details pages or from the Servicing Tab.  

Policy Reviews can be completed only with the Servicing module.  If 'Servicing' isn't an option in your top navigation bar, contact your Customer Success Manager to discuss your options.

A table of all the Open Reviews and all of the Finalized Reviews is available under the Servicing option.
