# Adding Segments

The Segment link from the Left Navigation menu allows segments such as coverages, extensions and riders to be added to a policy.

## Initial Segments

The first segment added to a policy varies depending on the type of policy. Make sure the initial segment required by the type of product being used is added to the policy. A policy cannot advance to the next phase unless an initial segment is added to the policy.

Note: Segments can only be deleted if the policy is in pending status. After the policy becomes active, segments cannot be deleted.
