Policy snapshot in claim / default mapping
You can use the Service Mapping Tool (SMT) to load policy and contract data from the policy management system to the policy snapshot and in doing so map the data of the external system to data of SAP Claims Management. SAP provides a sample implementation (default mapping) for the line of home contents insurance.
For more information, see Mapping of Interface to Policy System.
Integration of SAP Archiving Engine
The Archiving Engine offers you many functions for archiving objects, such as parallel archiving and extensive monitoring.
You can use the Archiving Engine to archive the following claim subobjects of SAP Claims Management:
Claim
Claim bundle
Reserve lot
Benefits, services, and fees catalog
Workset of IMP Manager (Insurance Mass Processing Manager)
For more information, see Archiving.
Benefits, services, and fees catalogs
This Business Function provides you with the following additional functions for processing benefits, services, and fees catalogs:
Use of point values for calculating benefit/services catalog items
Point values offer you greater flexibility in setting prices of individual benefits/services catalog items. The relevant prices of the corresponding benefits/services catalog items comprise one or multiple assigned subservices and standalone services.
Expression of the Business Rule Framework (BRF) for calculating benefits/services catalog items
You can use a BRF expression to change the price of a benefits/services catalog item or to calculate it afresh.
Consideration of taxes in the benefits/services catalog
You can assign a tax variant to each benefits/services catalog item. When you create an invoice with benefits/services catalog items during claims processing, the system automatically transfers the relevant tax variant to the invoice.
Text for benefits/services catalog item in the Differences Log
You can store information about a benefits/services catalog item that is then displayed in the differences log for the relevant benefits/services catalog item.
To do so, you must define a BRF expression in the benefits/services catalog item. This BRF expression delivers the text module that is displayed in the differences log.
Assignment of benefits/services catalogs to classes
You can use the cross-application component Classification System to create classes that you can then assign to benefits/services catalogs. The assignment is done in Customizing of the internal claim type at subclaim level. This means that it is possible to assign individual benefits/services catalogs to a subclaim type without having to create a new version of the internal claim type.
For more information, see Benefits Catalog Item.
Authorization check with repetitive payments
You can perform an authorization check for the entire repetitive payment record. The system then checks whether the user is authorized to create or change a repetitive payment of a certain amount. An authorization check for each individual payment of the repetitive payment is not necessary.
For more information, see Authorization Check with Repetitive Payments.
Claim Summary screen
The new claim summary provides a clear and structured overview of all relevant claim information. In addition to basic data of the claim such as incident type or claim date, the system also displays key figures on payments, reserves, claim handlers, subclaims, log entries, notes, and for other assigned claims.
Call notes
You can call the notes function from any screen in claims processing. You can then create, display, or change a note.
Information on inactive claims
You can use a report to identify inactive claims and to inform the responsible claim handler accordingly. A claim is considered inactive if it has not been processed for a certain number of days.
You can use the Business Rule Framework (BRF) to control how you handle the information that a claim is inactive. For example, using the BRF you can create a task informing the claim handler of this situation.
For more information, see the documentation on report RICL_INACTIVE_CLAIMS_NOT.
Override settings in the policy product
You can override certain settings that have been defined in Customizing for the policy product.
For more information, see Overriding of Settings with Policy Product.
Texts for settlements in collective subrogation/recovery
In collective subrogation/recovery or in an accident event with subrogation/recovery you can enter texts for settlements. To do so, you assign text modules that you can select from different categories to the individual settlements. You can change the sample texts later on in the application if you need to.
Role-based performer: Display of telephone number
The overview of the role-based perform now contains the telephone number of the performer. This applies to the performer categories User and Business Partner.
Clauses with coverage in the policy snapshot
The policy snapshot displays clauses (endorsements) that are assigned to a coverage, along with the assigned coverage.
Inspection location of a damaged object
In P&C claims, the input help for the inspection location also contains the claimant.
