ACORD and Supplemental forms on the Forms page

Appulate allows users to fill out, download, send by email, and send to sign ACORD and Supplemental forms.

ACORD forms associated with the insurance line and Supplemental forms associated with markets selected on the Quote request page can be found on the Forms page. To open it, click Forms in the Quote request navigation.

Note: The Forms page is available only when you've already created an insured and a quote request.

Some ACORD and Supplemental forms may be hidden. Click View all forms to view and add the forms you need.
Some forms may be hidden if a business type is not specified.
Supplemental forms are provided by markets for particular insurance lines and states. For more information, see the Forms List.
To access a supplemental form of a particular market, you need to add this company to your submission using the Add markets button.
ACORD and Supplemental forms are also available under Forms on the Documents page of a policy.

Note: Your company may have certain restrictions regarding ACORD and Supplemental forms. Agents not on ProducerConnect Premium and markets without an ACORD license cannot access these forms. For more information, please contact our sales team at sales@appulate.com.

Tip: Apart from the Forms page, ACORD and Supplemental forms are also available on a quote request's or policy's Documents page.

Signing

For agents the e-signing is a ProducerConnect Premium feature. If you're an agent and not on ProducerConnect Premium, you only can sign documents:

during policy binding;
if the market you're requesting a quote from allows its submitters to sign documents of selected submarkets.

You can e-sign a form by clicking Sign in its three-dot menu.

This will open the Send Form for signature dialog. You will then be asked to sign the form in SignRequest.

After you sign a form, the Electronic signature status will be displayed in its icon and Actions grid.
