Important Notes:

• You must have Admin rights inside TurboRater to add or modify this bridge.
• If you do not see Hawksoft in the list please contact your sales rep at 800-383-3482 option #6.
• Hawksoft Anywhere works by using a piece of software called Parallels which allows Hawksoft to appear to run on your local computer but is actuall running off a remote server hosted by one of two datacenters. You will need to contact Hawksoft for assistance with setting up the bridge inside TurboRater as they will need to determine what server host your account is using.
• Software running in parallels can be identified by two vertical red slashes on the icon on your taskbar.
• Users will have to remove their existing TurboRater Bridge inside of HawkSoft CMS and then re-add it in order to get the Home integration.
• For this setup to work correctly, TurboRater must be launched and used from within the Hawksoft browser.

Follow these steps:

1. If you have not already done so, install the Integration Center. Note that the Integration Center needs to be installed on the local PC, not the remote environment.
   
2. Setup Agency Management Option Group in TurboRater:
   • Administration menu > Add New Agency Management Options
   • Enter a name in the Agency Management Option Name.
     • 
   • Select HawkSoft CMS XML
     • Note: You may see two selections "HawkSoft CMS" and "HawkSoft CMS XML". We recommend using the "HawkSoft CMS XML" as it is in a newer format, therefore, more information will transfer to Hawksoft.
