With the exception of the ACORD 130 Workers Compensation Application, no commercial application is complete without the ACORD 125 Applicant Information Section. The ACORD 125 contains information that is not duplicated on other ACORD commercial application forms, including important customer contact and premise location information.
When you generate ACORD and other forms, information from specific policy fields in AMS360 appears in corresponding form fields. AMS360 is designed so that each section of the Policy data entry form roughly corresponds to a section on the ACORD 125 Applicant Information Section form.
Applicant data entered in the Policy form under Prior Carrier flows to a column titled "Prior Carrier Information" on the ACORD 125 form. Data entered underCommercial Locationsflows to the "Premises Information" section of the ACORD 125.
WhenAMS360 creates the ACORD 125 form for a policy, it might also create certain additional forms related to the Applicant Information Section. Whether an additional form is created or not depends on the amount and kind of information contained in an individual policy.
If the policy contains data in the Commercial Supplemental Names fields, then AMS360 automatically includes an additional form called "Additional Named Insureds." However, if the policy does not contain any data under Commercial Supplemental Names, then AMS360 will not create this form.
For more information about how to create forms for a commercial insurance applicant, see Applications (Integrated).
This topic illustrates which AMS360 fields provide for specific sections of the following forms:
Applicant Information Section (ACORD 125)
Commercial applicant information from specific fields in AMS360 appears in corresponding ACORD 125 form fields. You can refer to the following sample of the ACORD 125 Commercial Applicant Information Section form to determine the corresponding AMS360 fields.

Policy Data Entry Sections with Images of the ACORD 125
The following images represent data entry fields in AMS360. Data flows from the AMS360 fields to a corresponding section on the ACORD 125 Applicant Information Section form.
Click in the image of the AMS360 section to see where data flows to the form. A pop-up image of the form appears. To close the pop-up, click outside the AMS360 image.
To determine which agency contact address appears on the ACORD 125, make your selection under Toolbox > System Administration > Agency > Forms Name/Address/Phone Numbers: Commercial Lines.
You can select either the Agency address or a business unit address (Branch, Department, Division or Group).
Before you can print business unit information on the form, you must first create the business unit in Business Unit Setup, or enter the agency address in Agency Setup under Name, Address and Phone Number.
If selected, business unit contact information flows from the Business Unit Setup, which you can access through Agency Setup under Accounting Options.
In this example, Agency data is selected to appear on Commercial Lines forms. Agency contact information flows from Agency Setup > Name, Address and Phone Number.
When you create a new commercial lines policy, you must enter information about the policy carrier. This information appears in the Basic Policy Information section, where you can also edit by clicking the Change link.
Depending on your selection here, other applicable information may flow to the ACORD 125 from the Name section of the Company data entry form in AMS360.
In this example, the NAIC code for the carrier flows to the ACORD 125 along with the carrier's name.
When you enter a Policy transaction, you can select the transaction type from the Transaction list. You can also enter an Effective Date.
Although you do not enter it in the AMS360 policy form, nevertheless the standard default effective time always appears on the ACORD 125 as 12:01 AM. You can edit the time in eForms Manager; for more information on editing, see the Creating Applications (Integrated) section of the Applications (Integrated) topic.
To access these fields in AMS 360, go to Policy > Basic Policy Information.

This example shows open data fields for Location # 00002.
The first four premises (i.e., locations and/or buildings) entered on the policy appear on the ACORD 125 form. If more than four unique premises are entered on the policy, then AMS360 creates the ACORD 823 Additional Premises Information Section overflow form to accommodate the additional data.

If you enter data in the Remarks field, it appears on the ACORD 125 Applicant Information section as well as on the Comments/Remarks overflow form.

To access these fields in AMS360, go to Policy > Policy Contacts.
If the Responsibility entered for one or more of the policy contacts is either Inspection or Accounting Records, then information about that policy contact appears on the ACORD 125.
All other policy contacts appear on the Contact Names overflow form.
On the ACORD 125, labeled check boxes represent a range of commercial ACORD section forms that could be attached to a policy.
In AMS360, if a commercial line of business is attached to the policy, then on the ACORD 125 form, an X appears in the box labeled with the appropriate ACORD section title.
Example: You attach a Commercial Property line of business to the policy. On the ACORD 125 form, an X appears in the box labeled "Property."
To access these fields in AMS360, go to Policy > Line of Business.
To access these fields in AMS360, go to Policy > Loss History > Loss History Information.

You can use this field to designate the number sequence of Prior Carrier entries as they appear in order on the ACORD 125.
If you enter a Form Display Order number for one Prior Carrier entry, you should enter a number for all the entries on the policy.
If you do not enter a Form Display Order sequence for prior carriers, their default sequence on the form is by Policy Expiration Date in descending order.
