About This Screen
UMO is a screen that contains summary information of driving records maintained by the Merit Rating Board (MRB) for the Safe Driver Insurance Plan (SDIP). These driving records contain at-fault insurance claims, comprehensive insurance claims, traffic
citations, out-of-state incidents, and insurance company SDIP policy inquiries. The Merit Rating Board - Operator Summary (UMO) Screen may be requested by typing a person's driver's license number, license state code, and a Request Code to specify the types of summary lines. The system returns the person's name and address, date of birth, and the requested summary lines for at-fault insurance claims, comprehensive insurance claims, traffic citations, out-of-state incidents, and/or insurance company SDIP policy inquiries on the person's record.
From the UMO Screen, you may view detail information for a selected summary line by entering the appropriate function code, positioning the cursor on the summary line you want to view, and then pressing F4. Each type of summary line requires a different function code and returns a different screen. For each type of summary line, step-by-step instructions for how to view detail information are contained in the following chapters:
Type "A" at-fault insurance claim - UMA Screen
Type "C" comprehensive insurance claim - UMC Screen Type "V" traffic citation - UMVI Screen
Type "I" SDIP policy inquiry - UMI9 & UMIQ Screens Type "O" out-of-state incident - None
The UMO summary line field descriptions are brief. More detailed field descriptions may be found in the chapter for each detail screen. A one-page table, Operator Summary Line Data by Type of Summary Line, may be found in Appendix D.
