AccountHolderCountWorkQueue.java

On Contact objects, the AccountHolderCount values sometimes are incorrect. The Account Holder Count work queue finds Contact objects with incorrect AccountHolderCount values, and updates the value. If the value of AccountHolderCount is set incorrectly, it can affect search performance.

Based on the number of contacts that need updating, decide whether to run Account Holder Count manually or automatically as a scheduled batch process.

  • If the number of contacts to update is relatively small and does not change often, consider running it manually. Periodically check the data distribution in case something later causes Contact.AccountHolderCount fields to be incorrect.
  • If the number of contacts to update is large, or if contacts regularly have incorrect AccountHolderCount values, consider scheduling Account Holder Contact to run on a regular basis.

By default, Guidewire does not provide an entry for this work queue in file scheduler-config.xml in the base configuration. To schedule this work queue, add an entry for it to scheduler-config.xml.
