Release Notes 7.080.0

Policy Estimate: On the Policy Estimate Detail Lines page of a policy estimate, any changes made to the High Risk designation were not setting the line as modified, so the change was not being carried through to the printout. This issue has been resolved.

Policy Estimate: With this ticket, additional calculations were provided on policy estimates for Liability/Acre, Premium/Acre, Guarantee (if applicable), and Guarantee/Acre (if applicable) when MPCI is quoted with a Private Product.

Policy Estimate: With this ticket, new fields have been added for the Policy Estimate form, allowing users to choose which Calculations UI tabs will be displayed on the corresponding printout. Now, when a user selects "Print Forms" from the Additional Functions dropdown on the Policy Estimates Calculations page for a policy estimate and then selects Policy Estimate on the Print Forms popup, two new multi-select fields will display—Level of Detail and Policy Type. The Level of Detail dropdown will allow for selection of Totals (or Irrigated Totals/Non-Irrigated Totals) and Unit Information. By default, all options will be selected. The Policy Type dropdown will allow for selection of MPCI and any Hail/Private Products that are available on the estimate. By default, all options will be selected.

A request was received to allow the Dairy Revenue Protection (DRP) Quarterly Coverage Endorsement (QCE) to be printed with the blank and pre-headed report styles without the policy having any detail lines. This form has been updated so that when the user prints it with the blank or pre-headed report styles, the form will now print without the policy having detail lines or without any Effective Dates selected for the form.

With this ticket, a Policy Declaration Page (Dec Page) has been added for the Dairy Revenue Protection (DRP) Livestock product. This form will be available to print from the Print tab of DRP policies (will not be available on LGM or LRP policies). The following are attributes of the new Policy Declaration Page form for DRP policies:

The 2019 Whole-Farm Revenue Protection (WFRP) Handbook has added Commodity Code and Rate Code to the WFRP Farm Operation (Farm Op) Report. This ticket updated the same labels on the WFRP Schedule of Insurance (SOI). Commodity Code already printed on the WFRP SOI, but Rate Code needed to be added. The Yield label was also updated to be in sync with the Yield label on the Farm Op Report. These changes were made for all years on the WFRP SOI:

NOTE: Some of the commodities do not have a WFRP Commodity Code; those will print like this: ( ).

With the 2019 Crop Insurance Handbook (CIH), RMA added "P - Unharvested with Harvest incomplete (ARPI only)" as a Record Type option. The following updates have been made to the Production Report for all years:

With the 2019 Crop Insurance Handbook (CIH), RMA added "P - Unharvested with Harvest incomplete (ARPI only)" as a Record Type option. The following updates have been made to the Production Reporting Worksheet for all years:

With the 2019 Crop Insurance Handbook (CIH), RMA removed Prevented Planting +10% (PT) and added "P - Unharvested with Harvest incomplete (ARPI only)" as a Record Type option. The following updates have been made to the Production Report / Acreage Report for all years:

NOTE: Not all AIPs have this form turned on in the System.

PHTS: When PHTS data contained coverages by practice for stand-alone MP or stand-alone STAX policies and the current year policy had stand-alone MP or stand-alone STAX coverages by practice, the detail line records weren't being applied to the correct practice (i.e., IRR detail lines to the IRR practice and NI detail lines to the NI practice). Some adjustment of the code was needed to ensure that the PHTS records reflecting multiple coverages for these plan codes correctly imported to the current year policy with multiple coverages.

If there is a single coverage for a stand-alone MP or stand-alone STAX PHTS record and there is a single coverage created for the stand-alone MP or stand-alone STAX policy in the current RY, the PHTS data detail lines will import correctly to the single coverage. If the MP or STAX coverage is a related coverage and has an associated MPCI coverage, no detail lines will import from PHTS by design. The System will auto-create MP or STAX detail lines on a related coverage once acres are added to the MPCI premium lines.

The scope of this ticket's changes was only around PHTS records that are coming in as coverages by practice for stand-alone MP and stand-alone STAX when the current RY policy has coverages by practice for stand-alone MP and stand-alone STAX.

Fast Edit PR: The Fast Edit PR grid is designed to automatically calculate the Annual Yield when the user enters and tabs through Total Production and Acreage values. It was reported the grid was incorrectly displaying the yield with the YA option applied rather than the true Average Yield of "total production divided by acres". This has been corrected. Although the YA yield may be applied in the calculation of the approved APH yield at save of the grid + signature maintenance, the UI in the grid will now display the actual average based on the production and acres.

Margin Protection: "Sorry..." errors were received while users began updating Margin Protection (MP) policies that pointed back to a rating change made in October for the 2019 RY. Errors were returned while users updated production for stand-alone Margin Protection policies in the 2018 RY Fast Edit PR grid as well as when users updated the related links between MPCI and MP coverages in the 2019 RY. Both instances of "Sorry..." errors pointed back to a change made in the Plan Code 16 and 17 rate calculator in preparation for the 2019 RY.
