About importing zone data
PolicyCenter provides a collection of zone data files for various localities with small sets of zone data that you can load for development and testing purposes. The zone data files are in the following location in the Project window in Guidewire Studio™.
In the geodata folder, PolicyCenter stores the zone information in country-specific zone-config.xml files, with each file in its own specific country folder. For example, the zone-config.xml file that configures address-related information in Australia is in the following location in the Studio Project window.
Guidewire provides the US-Locations.txt and similar files for testing purposes to support autofill and autocomplete when users enter addresses. This data is provided on an as-is basis regarding data content. The provided zone data files are not complete and might not include recent changes.
Also, the formatting of individual data items in these files might not conform to your internal standards or the standards of third-party vendors that you use. For example, the names of streets and cities are formatted with mixed case letters but your standards may require all upper case letters.
The US-Locations.txt file contains information that does not conform to United States Postal Service (USPS) standards for bulk mailings. You can edit the US-Locations.txt file to conform to your particular address standards, and then import that version of the file.
