Configure optional features

About this task

To configure coverage symbol groups, official IDs, and blankets:

Procedure

  1. Use the Project window in Studio to navigate to configuration > config > resources > productmodel > policylinepatterns > XX > Line where XX is the line abbreviation of an existing line. This node contains properties files for each policy line pattern.
  2. Copy and paste one of the properties files. Studio opens the Copy dialog box, where you can provide a new name for the copied item.
  3. In the New name field, enter the policy line code you specified in Create the policy line, followed by Line.properties.
    For the Golf Cart example as configured in this tutorial, name the file GolfCartLine.properties.
  4. Edit the properties file for the new line of business. Set the values for each optional item as needed.

    For example, to display the Official IDs tab in PolicyCenter for this product line, set:

    # Indicates whether this policy line uses Coverage Symbol Groups
    line.usesCoverageSymbolGroups=false
    
     # Indicates whether this policy line uses Official IDs
    line.usesOfficialIDs=false
    
     # Indicates whether this policy line uses Blankets
    line.usesBlankets=false
    
     # Indicates whether this policy line's modifiers use the Split Rating Period field
    line.usesSplitRatingPeriod=false

    PolicyCenter includes any omitted properties by default. Likewise, if you do not create a properties file for the line, PolicyCenter includes all properties.
