Is this you? Frustrated that you just can't get Instar to do all the things you had hoped it would do.....you don't have to be. The
National InStar Users Group can help....join today. The InStar system is great, but like anything else, the more knowledge you have, the more you
will take away from the system. With the help of your users group you can learn how to make the most of your system....learn from those who have gone before
you...
Are you aware that there is an InStar users group whose sole purpose is to educate the InStar users, recommend product enhancements, and act as a liaison between
the InStar users and Vertafore?
WHAT CAN THE USER GROUP DO FOR YOU? Education - conferences, discounted
taining programs and webinars dedicated to the InStar user!
Product Development - the board of the National InStar Users
Group (NIUG) has direct involvement with the Vertafore product development team to continue to push for enhancements that directly affect productivity and your
ROI. Those enhancement requests come from users like yourself. If you want your voice heard at Vertafore, you need to join the users group.
Our website - handouts from all of our conferences, information about our board and upcoming conferences, webinars, etc.
Our Newsletter - all the news you need to know as to what is happening with InStar, including tips and product development.
WHY JOIN? Not only do you get the direct benefits described above, NIUG needs the support of every InStar user so
that we can continue to make InStar the best agency management system it can be. Thank you!!! NIUG Board

by dragging over area you want on Excel>Ctl C - to copy>open Excel>Ctl V or right click Paste on the Excel spreadsheet.
2) Accounts Receivable Aging - Print to screen first to make sure you have the correct format
and then close and print - Do not print from the screen because the report will omit lines (Might be corrected in Studio).
