Linking PolicyCenter coverages to the ClaimCenter general damage exposure type

To configure the ClaimCenter Typelist Generator to associate new coverages from PolicyCenter with the General Damage exposure type in ClaimCenter, run the generator with the -Dmap_coverages=true option.

When enabling this option, the typelist file ExposureType.ttx must be included in the input directory. The generator updates the GeneralDamage typecode by adding new coverage subtypes as categories.

If you configure the generator to link new coverages to GeneralDamage, you can demonstrate intake of First Notice of Loss (FNOL) without further configuration in Guidewire Studio for ClaimCenter. ClaimCenter displays a generic exposure page, which lets users open new claims against policies with the new coverages.

In a production environment however, Guidewire recommends that you map coverages to more specific exposure types in Guidewire Studio for ClaimCenter. Do not configure the generator to link new coverages to the General Damage exposure type if you plan to use more specific exposure types. Otherwise, you must find and delete links to the General Damage before you create new links to correct exposure types.
