Personal Rule Notifications

The Personal Rules module allows you to set up notifications to inform you when events occur within a specified data set and category. You can instruct XactAnalysis® to notify you when assignments’ statuses change, estimate value thresholds are surpassed, certain items are included in estimates, and a variety of other events. The Personal Rules module helps you monitor service provider activity as well as regional and organizational estimate anomalies and trends.

When working with personal rules, it’s important to remember that the assignor is the creator of the assignment (in most cases, the insurance carrier). The assignee is the recipient of the assignment (the service provider).

The screen shots in this document are generic, and your company’s interface may vary.

Elapsed Time Rules

Elapsed Time Rules are similar to Personal Rules but are better suited to a time-sensitive workflow. Rather than simply notifying you when an event occurs, elapsed time rules notify you when the set time period between two events (when a status is achieved) is exceeded. See Statuses for event definitions.

The Elapsed Time Rules section is located on the Personal Rules page, directly below the Personal Rules section. Elapsed Time Rules and Personal Rules are added in a similar way.
