Roles and access

Each desk is one dropdown on the standard user form — Servicing, Sales, Finance, Compliance & Audit, Administration and Configuration — and the line they are drawn along is the one agencies keep above all others: the people who look after clients are not the people who decide who gets paid. The add-ons bring six more: three on a Producer Pay desk and three on a Client Money desk.

DeskLevels, lowest firstWhat changes between them
ServicingService Representative › Account ManagerOpens accounts, records policies, issues certificates and works renewals and x-dates. Reads commission, but changes no rate, credit or split and touches no carrier statement.
SalesProducer › Sales ManagerA producer sees their own earnings and nobody else's, by a rule on the producer named on the record. The sales manager sees the whole team's production and pays nobody.
FinanceFinance OfficerImports and reconciles carrier statements, works the exception queue and chases commission that never came. Sets no rates, and approves nothing it also raises.
Compliance & AuditAuditorReads accounts, policies, the commission ledgers and carrier statements, and writes nothing. An auditor who can fix what they audit is not an auditor.
AdministrationBrokerage ManagerHolds every agency role, and alone sets and closes commission agreements, writes off a shortfall the carrier will not pay, and deletes a record the ledgers refer to.
ConfigurationConfiguration ManagerClasses, products, coverages and the statutory tables belong to whoever holds this role, not to whoever can open the form.

Rules the system enforces for every role

  • A producer cannot read another producer's earnings — the rule follows the producer named on the record.
  • Servicing staff can read commission but cannot change a rate, a production credit or a producer split.
  • Writing off a shortfall the carrier will not pay, and setting or closing a commission agreement, needs the Brokerage Manager.
  • A role that cannot take an action does not see its button, and the rule still holds however the action is attempted.
