Introduction

Welcome to the Bridge insurance access portal. The system provides a full workflow, from the administration of products and coverage, to the submission and management of individual policies.

Access to all features, options, and data are controlled by the settings in each user account. A user has one or more Security Roles, often named to describe the type of user that would have the role. Each Security Role includes a selection of Security Rights, which control access to all areas of the system at the most granular level.

Guide

This guide is divided into the following major categories. Click a link to jump to the appropriate section.

Security Roles

Roles are the collections of rights that are assigned to individual user accounts. This allows any number of related rights to be quickly assigned to one or more user accounts that will perform a similar role in the system.

If a user has a variety of responsibilities, multiple roles can be assigned, and new roles can be created to fill in any gaps.

Default Roles

When the system is first initialized, these default roles are created automatically. These default roles may be modified, and new roles may be created.

Client / A standard client level role, allowing users to create submissions and access associated features such as printing documents, sending e-mails, and adding notes.
Client Risk Manager / Includes all rights associated with the Client role, but with the added ability to view and edit client records.
