Find the desired client in the search results and enter “2” in the box to the left of the client name. Press <Enter> to return the Client ID to the Customer Service Inquiry screen.

Refresh <F5>

Once the results are displayed, Press <F6> to perform a SoundX search. The SoundX search returns names that sound like the last name entered. This feature does not work well in all cases, but may provide assistance with a difficult last name spelling.

Master File <F14>

The Master File is the central location for client and product information. It is utilized frequently to obtain information about products offered by a financial institution. To access the Master File, hold down the <Shift> key while pressing the <F2> key. You may recognize the Display Clients screen from the <F4> function. The screens are identical; however, Client ID cannot be posted to the Customer Service Inquiry screen from the Master File.

Another option offered in Artemis is the wildcard (%) search. By placing a percentage mark (%) before the search criteria, results are returned in alphabetical order.

Also, place the wildcard (%) symbol after a partial category entry to search for all accounts that contain that specific information.

Example: Instead of searching for “Community Bank & Trust”, use the wildcard (%) feature by typing “Community Bank%”.

Note: The wildcard (%) search can be used in the Customer Service Inquiry or the Master File screen.

Once the client is located, there are four options which can be applied to a client record:

1 Display product information / versions

Option Description
<F6> Online Enrollment
<F12> Display rate table
<F13> Display account structure

Enrollment Over the Phone <F6>

The preferred enrollment method for directly mailed products is through the enrollment form. If the customer has an enrollment form, encourage him/her to complete the form and return in the envelope provided. This helps control handle time and allows supplemental coverage to be added as part of enrollment.

Occasionally, a customer will need to be enrolled over the phone. We can only enroll complimentary AD&D coverage over the phone.

Scenarios when enrollment is required over the phone are:

  • Lost enrollment form
  • Customer is closing their account and moving funds to another participating financial institution
  • Customer was not solicited, but maintains an account with a participating financial institution
  • Customer wishes to avoid receiving mail solicitation

Other products need to be sent an application for enrollment.

Upon successful enrollment, a “complimentary only” coverage record for the customer is immediately generated. If the customer is interested in supplemental coverage, the customer must mail-in their enrollment form.

Transfer caller to a supervisor / Tier II agent for enrollment over the phone.

Rate Table <F12>

Once the desired Product Information Screen has been displayed, press <F12> to display rate information for the SES. Rates should only be quoted from this screen, once a Spoken Key (SES) has been provided. Rates should be quoted in approximate only.

Account Structure <F13>

Once the desired Product Information Screen has been displayed, press <F13> (<Shift> + <F1>) to display account structure for the SES. This is most helpful during online enrollment to determine the proper character length for account numbers for a given transit routing number.

Online Enrollment <E>

Online Enrollment

Once the desired SES has been located on the Select SES ID screen, enter “E” in the option box to the left of the SES number to enroll a customer into a given SES. Enrollment is possible for AD&D only with one exception, mortgage billed customers. Enrollment for Mortgage (MORT) billed coverage is not permitted over the phone because the mortgage company sets up the controls. All other coverage types (HAP, Recuperative Care, etc.) must be entered on a paper form and turned into a Supervisor immediately.

Display Client Flash Information <3>

Flash updates are urgent and pertinent communications pertaining to a given Client ID. The client name will appear red in the Master File if flash information is present.

Flashes expire dependent on the expiration date assigned to them when they are approved. It is up to the user to check the flash message for recent updates, even if he/she has checked the flash before.

Once the desired client has been located in the Master File, enter “3” in the option box to the left of the client name to display any flash information. Press <Enter> to proceed. The Display Flashes screen is shown along with pertinent client updates.
