Configuration FAQs
-
Insurance product configuration starts by adding a new record into FTOS_IP_InsuranceProduct entity, with general details about the product: name, code, settings influencing other flows' behavior on Policy Admin or Billing solutions.
-
The coverages and the modules are saved in the same entity - that is the FTOS_IP_InsuranceProductItem entity, a coverage being always a parent of a module. For that reason:
-
A coverage is always linked to a product by insuranceProductId lookup.
-
A module doesn't have the insuranceProductId lookup filled in, but instead it has the itemParentId lookup filled in with one of the existing "parent" coverages.
-
-
The FTOS_IP_InsuranceRisk entity stores the general peril nomenclature table. But, since a peril can have a different configuration in the context of a certain product (like different limits), you must also use the FTOS_IP_CoveredRisk to create specific insurable perils, out of the general ones.
-
A covered peril can be associated on multiple modules, and a module can have multiple covered perils. The FTOS_IP_InsuranceCoveredRisk entity is used to create the necessary links between them.
-
In order to calculate the premium or get an underwriting score result, formulas can be associated to a product, or each coverage of a product. Pay attention to the fact that only one formula can be attached to a product, or coverage.
-
For underwriting rules, the context type attribute is required, since underwriting rules can be divided in different categories, defined in FTOS_IP_UnderwrittingContextType. Pay attention to the fact that only one formula for underwriting can be associated on a product, or coverage, on a specific context.
The Insurance Product Factory maintains the underlying data in a consistent data model. Consequently, you have a reliable data model for your insurance product portfolio that you can reference when you build your digital journeys. This allows you to manage your product portfolio at will, without having to re-code your digital journeys every time an insurance product is added, updated, or retired.
