ACORD autofill and submission packets
Generate a prefilled ACORD form or a multi-page submission packet from a carrier's record in Market Tracker, and know which fields never prefill.
The ACORD tab of a Carrier File produces two documents from the carrier's federal record: a prefilled ACORD form, and a submission packet. Both download as PDFs.
#ACORD autofill
Open the ACORD tab and use the ACORD autofill card. Market Tracker fills what the public record supports: legal and DBA name, address, USDOT and MC numbers, power units and drivers, declared operating radius, cargo.
#What never prefills
Nothing that is not in the federal record. In practice that means you always finish by hand:
- loss history and prior carrier detail
- coverage limits and deductibles being requested
- driver schedules and MVR detail
- anything the insured told you rather than filed
Note
Treat the generated form as a starting draft with the rekeying already done, not as a completed submission. Check it before it goes out.
#Submission packet
The submission packet is a multi-page PDF assembled from the same record: the carrier's file as a document you can attach to an email or drop into a file.
#If generation fails
A failure shows:
Could not generate the ACORD form.
Retry first. It is usually a transient upstream source failure rather than a problem with the carrier. If it persists on one carrier but not others, that carrier's record is likely missing a field the form requires. See Troubleshooting.
#Outside the app
The same autofill exists publicly for one carrier at a time, without an account, as ACORD autofill from a DOT number. The in-app version is the one to use when you are already working the file.
For background on the forms themselves, the ACORD guides cover ACORD 126 and ACORD 140.
