# InquiryScreen

## Description

The Inquiry screen enables users to access information via a rules defined format. The rule can be created at the Main Menu or Policy level. The level determines which screen this Inquiry screen can be accessed from. It also determines which GUID is passed to the Inquiry screen rule: PrimaryCompanyGUID for Main Menu or PolicyGUID for Policy.

Specific values from the database can be retrieved without writing SQL statements, by using the available defined prefixes and fields. Please see the Available Prefixes and Fields for Configuration for a listing.
