User renewal_daemon has first name Renewal and last name Daemon. PolicyCenter defines user renewal_daemon as the default user for automated renewal policy transactions started through PolicyRenewalStart batch processing. In the base configuration, Guidewire assigns the All Permissions (Deprecated) role to this user to provide overriding authority to auto-approve all underwriting issues that occur in automated policy renewals. However, in a production environment, Guidewire recommends that you assign a role to this user that includes only the permissions necessary to perform its work.

Deleting user renewal_daemon

Although it is possible to delete user renewal_daemon, the code in PolicyRenewalPlugin.gs (called by PolicyRenewalStart) explicitly names this user. If you delete this user, you must update the code in PolicyRenewalPlugin with the name of a user with the equivalent permissions.
