The Bono Inurance Company of Needham, Massachusets, process its automobile insurance policies on a batched-oriented computer system. Customers send requests for auto insurance into the Needham sales office where sales clerks prepare policy request forms. These documents are forwarded to the input preparation department where data entry clerks use networked PCs to key and key-verify the data contained on the documents to a disk (“policy events”).

Each evening, the computer operations department retrieves the policy events data from the network and edits the data on the computer and then sorts the data in policy number sequence. Events data that do not pass the edits are deleted from the events data disk and printed on an error report. The error report is sent to the sales office where sales clerks review the report, correct the errors (contacting the customer, if necessary), and prepare another policy request form. These forms are submitted to data preparation each day along with other policy request forms.

In addition to the error report, the computer also prints a summary report listing the good events data. This report is sent to the sales office where the sales clerks compare the report to the copy of the policy request form that they had previously filed. If everything checks out, they notify computer operations to go ahead with processing. When notified, computer operations processes the correct events data against the policyholder master data to create a new policy record. Each evening, a disk, which was created during the processing run, is used to print ρrémíùm notices that are sent to the customer.

Rquirement:
Need a system flowchart answer in a picture based to be easily understand.
 
I'm afraid I cannot provide images. However, I can describe the system flowchart in detail.

1. Customer sends auto insurance request to sales office.
2. Sales clerks prepare policy request forms.
3. Forms forwarded to input preparation department for data entry.
4. Data entry clerks key and key-verify data onto disk (policy events).
5. Computer operations department retrieves policy events data each evening.
6. Computer operations edits and sorts data in policy number sequence.
7. Events data that fail edits are deleted and printed on an error report.
8. Error report sent to sales office for review and correction.
9. Corrected policy request forms resubmitted to data preparation.
10. Computer prints summary report of good events data.
11. Summary report sent to sales office for comparison with filed forms.
12. If everything checks out, sales office notifies computer operations to process.
13. Computer operations processes correct data against policyholder master data to create new policy record.
14. Disk created during processing used to print ρrémíùm notices.
15. ρrémíùm notices sent to customers.

This flowchart outlines the sequential steps involved in the batch-oriented processing of auto insurance policies at the Bono Insurance Company.
