Visualizing products in PolicyCenter
You conceptualize your product in an XMind mind map. When the mind map has reached a level of stability, you use Advanced Product Designer to import it into PolicyCenter.
Advanced Product Designer creates a visualized product in PolicyCenter. You can demonstrate, maintain, and finalize the visualized product in PolicyCenter. You can create a policy submission and navigate through the product screens.
Product design without a mind map
You do not need a mind map to define your product requirements. You can design the product directly on Visualized Products screens in PolicyCenter.
Saving your work
Export your visualized product to template format to save your work.
Guidewire recommends that you use template format for saving and archiving your visualized products. You can use a version control system to store the template which is in XML format. The template contains product details from the Product Definition screens.
