Published: December 21, 2021
Looking for ways to improve your filing acceptance rates and efficiency? Sometimes the best options involve going back to the basics and reviewing your account setup.
A good place to start is your Filing Company information. Filing Company entries control the options you see when you initiate a filing.
Filing Company information is saved in each insurance company's administrator account. When you log in as an administrator, you can review and update the details recorded for each company.
