Events on coverages

Events are incidents for which a coverage provides protection.

To view events in PolicyCenter, navigate to the Coverages tab, and click Details for a coverage.

On the Definition popup, events are listed under Events Covered. Each event has the following fields:
Field Description

Fixed Limit Enter a number or decimal for the fixed amount of the limit.

Limit Attribute Select the attribute that stores the limit.
Deductible Attribute Select the attribute that stores the deductible.
