Overview of HP100RECAL

When saving a policy that is marked to be system-calculated, DDI-Connect prompts you to recalculate the premium amount for that policy. It is strongly recommended that you always recalculate the premium. You can also manually recalculate by clicking the Actions button on a policy and then selecting Recalculate Premium. When you do, you'll see this box:
