Run the ClaimCenter Typelist Generator

To provide ClaimCenter with new product model information from PolicyCenter, you must generate typelist files that contain the typecodes for that information.

Before you begin

Before you run the ClaimCenter Typelist Generator, the following conditions must exist.

  • You must know the location of the input and output directories.
  • You must place the ClaimCenter typelist and typelist localization files in the input directory.

About this task

The generator will preserve the lines of business codes that you configured in Guidewire Studio for ClaimCenter or imported from other third-party policy administration systems.

Procedure

  1. Copy the following files from ClaimCenter/modules/configuration/config/extensions/typelist to your input directory:
    • CoverageSubtype.ttx
    • CoverageType.ttx
    • CovTermPattern.ttx
    • ExposureType.ttx
    • LOBCode.ttx
    • LossPartyType.ttx
    • PolicyType.ttx
  2. Copy files named typelist.properties and typelist_languageName.properties from the ClaimCenter locale directory to the input directory.

    The languageName in the file name is the localization code. ClaimCenter localization files are located in the following directory.

    ClaimCenter/modules/configuration/config/locale/
    For example, if your instances have three locales, Canadian English, US English, and Canadian French, copy the following files to the input directory.
    • typelist_en_CA.properties
    • typelist.properties
    • typelist_fr_CA.properties
  3. At a command prompt, navigate to the PolicyCenter directory.
  4. Run the following command.
    gwb ccTypelistGen -Dinput_dir=input_dir -Doutput_dir=output_dir -Dmap_coverages={true|false} 
            -Dcc_app_version={9|10} 

    The following table lists the command arguments. These arguments do not have default values. You must provide a value for every argument.

    Argument

    Value

    -Dinput_dir

    The directory that contains the input typelist files.

    -Doutput_dir

    The directory in which to place the output typelist files.

    -Dmap_coverages

    Whether to map new PolicyCenter coverages to the ClaimCenter generic General Damage exposure type. Specify true or false.

    This option is particularly helpful during the initial development phase of a configuration.

    -Dcc_app_version

    The ClaimCenter major version relevant to the input and output LOB typelists. Specify 9 or 10.

  5. Check the output directory for generated typelist and localization files and the generation report productModelGenReport.txt.

    In the output directory, the generator creates typelist_ll_CC.properties localization files for each locale.

    For example, if your instances have three locales, Canadian English, US English, and Canadian French, the generator creates the following files.
    • OUTPUT_DIRECTORY/typelist_en_CA.properties
    • OUTPUT_DIRECTORY/typelist.properties
    • OUTPUT_DIRECTORY/typelist_fr_CA.properties
  6. Use the generation report to achieve the following goals.
    • Determine success or failure of the generation command.
    • If the command succeeded, identify new coverage types to map to exposure types in Guidewire Studio for ClaimCenter.

What to do next

To complete the integration of new lines of business into the ClaimCenter model, you perform the following tasks.
