Questions and answers

After you initiate a policy transaction, PolicyCenter creates a list of questions based on the product model definition. It then renders these questions in a question set. PolicyCenter stores the answer to each question permanently in the PolicyCenter database. PolicyCenter stores the answer to each question for a particular policy transaction as a separate row in the database. The question set answer container determines the database table used to store the answers.

Each answer points back to its question through the QuestionCode, which in Product Designer is the Code value of the question. You can think of answers as instances of a question pattern.

You can access and manipulate the answers to a question set through delegates. For more information, see Question set object model.
