Renewal process Gosu class

The gw.job.RenewalProcess.gs class is the main class controlling the renewal process. Use Studio to view and edit the Gosu classes related to the renewal process.

This class contains the main logic of the renewal job, including referral direction handling. PolicyCenter checks multiple methods to see if the renewal can be automatically processed based on certain conditions. If PolicyCenter cannot process the job automatically, it blocks the renewal from advancing, raises an issue, and refers the renewal to an underwriter so that it can be manually processed.

Note: The JobProcess.gs Gosu class contains methods that are common to all jobs, including renewal. You can view that class in Studio and see the complete list of methods.

The renewal process class includes methods that do the following:

  • Starts the renewal
  • Sends renewal documents
  • Escalates the renewal
  • Issues and binds the renewal
  • Handles user actions such as:
    • Issue Now – Immediately binds the policy.
    • NonRenew – Puts the policy period in NonRenewing status.
    • Not Taken – Puts the policy period in NotTaking status.
    • Renew – Puts the policy period in Renewing status.
    • Edit Policy Transaction – Puts the period back in Draft mode for editing and checks the conditions for which a new version of the policy period can be created.
    • Withdraw Transaction – Withdraws the policy period. If the renewal is at a point where it cannot be withdrawn, then a message appears stating that the renewal cannot be withdrawn.

Modifying the Renewal Process Class

If you need to change or create new the methods in that class, you can edit the class directly or create a subclass (such as YourCompanyRenewalProcess.gs).

For more information about job classes and job subclasses, see Gosu classes for jobs.

If you create a subclass, you must modify the job process customization plugin. For more information, see Job process creation plugin.
