    | What does the * (asterisk) after the number in the term column mean on the Comparison screen? | 
  
   
    |  Answer / Solution | 
  
   
      | 
  
   
    Term column * indicator on the Comparison screen: 
    - The * (asterisk) next to  the number in the Term column on the Comparison indicates a feature called  Estimate Term Selected.
 
    - This means that the term that was selected to rate may not be the term that some companies have available to rate.
 
    - Those companies that have this indicator will display a calculated total premium on the Comparison screen equal to the term selected to rate.  
    
        - For example:  An annual term is selected, but some companies only have semi-annual terms available.  The total premium that will calculate for those companies is equal to 2 6-month policies.
 
     
     
    - This will allow you to compare 2 6-month policies to an annual policy rate.
 
    - If you do not want this feature turned on, you can turn it off by:
    
        - Clicking on the Gear menu and selecting Preferences.
 
        - Click on User on the left side.
 
        - Click on Rating.
 
        - Click on the Line of Business
 
        - Uncheck Estimate Term Selected
 
        - To close the screen, click on the Save button.
 
     
     
    - When 1 of these companies that have a term indicator is selected, you will receive a warning message that the term selected is an invalid term and that the valid term will be shown.
 
    - The Quote Breakdown screen will display the valid term available with payment plans for that term.
