Drop-down lists in visualized product

Drop-down lists let you choose an option from a predefined list of choices. You can add drop-down lists to risk objects and exposures. You can also add drop-down lists to clauses (coverages, conditions, and exclusions), to create option and package clause terms.

In Advanced Product Designer App, you can:
  • Define new drop-down lists in visualized products.
  • Add, remove, and modify drop-down list items.
  • Use drop-down lists defined elsewhere in the current product. Select Owning Attribute of shared code lists on the Drop-Down Definition popup.

Import from mind map

You can model drop-down lists in a product mind map and import them into Advanced Product Designer App. In Advanced Product Designer App, you can create and modify drop-down lists.

When you import a mind map with drop-down lists on risk objects, the list items become text in the visualized product regardless of whether they were modeled as Decimal, Number, or Money. This includes drop-down lists on the product line.

Clause terms

You can use drop-down lists to model clause terms in the visualized product.

When you import a mind map with clause terms, Decimal, Number, and Money values can be preserved.

Drop-Down Definition

Drop-down lists have Type set to Drop-down list. To define and modify the list definition, select Drop-down definition > Edit Drop-down.

To use a list defined in another product, such as PolicyCenter, check the Externally Managed and Referenced checkbox. The name of the list and the values in the list must match exactly the name and values in the external product. Externally-managed typecodes must have a description containing fewer than 255 characters. If the typecode exceeds 255 characters, Guidewire recommends shortening the description to 255 characters or fewer.
