MAINTAIN SUBCONTRACTOR INSURANCE

Use this screen to maintain information regarding subcontractor insurance. This insurance policy is one that the subcontractor has been required to obtain.

Each vendor/project/ insurance type combination can exist in only one screen. If more than one insurance policy exists for the same vendor/project/insurance type combination, use the New Line button on the toolbar to enter more than one policy on this screen.

When you select the Required for Payment checkbox, a voucher for this vendor cannot be released for payment until the voucher is evaluated against the required coverage start and end dates, AND the effective date and expiration date of the insurance policy. To learn more about subcontractor status, please see Special Topic AP-11, "Subcontractors."

Use this screen when entering information regarding a new, or renewed, insurance policy for a subcontractor.
