Generated coverage subtypes

The ClaimCenter Typelist Generator takes Coverage entities in PolicyCenter and generates CoverageType, CoverageSubtype, and ExposureType typelists in ClaimCenter. In the ClaimCenter lines of business model, you link coverage types to exposure types through coverage subtypes, as shown in the following illustration.

Coverage subtypes duplicate their coverage types to implement many-to-many relationships between coverages and exposures on claims.

For new coverages in PolicyCenter, the generator creates corresponding coverage types and subtypes in CoverageType.ttx and in CoverageSubtype.ttx. To link generated coverage types to generated subtypes, the generator adds the types and subtypes as categories of each other. Use the generated subtypes to link corresponding coverage types to exposure types in Guidewire Studio for ClaimCenter.

The ClaimCenter Typelist Generator adds generic subtype typecodes in CoverageSubtype.ttx for new coverage types. The generic coverage subtypes have the same codes, names, and descriptions as the corresponding coverages. Typically, you link a coverage type to a single exposure type. Sometimes, you need to link a coverage to several exposure types. For example, you want liability coverage on a claim to allow exposures for injured people and damaged property.
