9 of the top 12 Brokers in the US use SurePath and 6 of those trust our SurePath to Epic integration.
Overview
SurePath is designed to provide policy and invoice information to the Applied Systems Epic agency management system to reduce or eliminate duplicate entry of bond / policy data for accounting and invoicing purposes.
The integration utilizes a series of web service calls using SOAP and XML protocols.
• The Epic Billing Integration call returns to Epic SurePath records for transactions processed for the requested site,
by the requested user and within the requested date range.
• The EpicLookup call returns to Epic SurePath table contents needed for data elements for which Epic requires mapping.
Applied Systems hosts the integration interface and handles errors. Failures are recorded in Applied’s integration interface.
After set up is complete SurePath users process transactions in SurePath as they normally do. Epic initiates a web service call requesting data. SurePath returns requested data to Epic for processing.
