      • Policy numbers shared among more than 1 client must be changed prior to conversion.  Recommend adding the client number to the end of the policy number.
    • Premium is populated in the Estimated Annualized Premium field on the Newton policy from the Full Term Premium that exists on the policy record in 360.  We cannot convert data coming from the accounting in 360 which is most often different from the full term premium .
      • NOTE: This premium does not hit the general ledger
      • NOTE: Installment premiums are not included
