Guidewire ClaimCenter Developer Training

• ClaimCenter Technical Architecture (Web, App, and Database layers).
• Introduction to the ClaimCenter Data Dictionary.
• Guidewire Studio: Project structure, navigating the resource tree, and configuration parameters.
• Running the local server and managing server modes (Dev, Test, Prod).

• Gosu Fundamentals: Syntax, Null Safety, and Type Inference.
• Gosu Collections: Using Blocks (Lambda expressions) for filtering and mapping.
• Query APIs: Fetching data from the database using Gosu Queries.
• Enhancements: Extending OOTB classes without inheritance.
• Lab: Writing a Gosu script to query Claims based on Loss Date and State.

• Entities: Creating new Custom Entities and extending OOTB Entities (e.g., extending the Claim entity).
• Typelists: Creating, filtering, and managing Typekeys (Dropdowns).
• Entity Relationships: One-to-One, One-to-Many, and Foreign Keys.
• Database consistency checks and Data Model upgrades.

Lab: Adding a "Third Party Vendor" entity and linking it to the Claim file.

• PCF Files Structure: Locations (Pages) vs. Widgets (Screen elements).
• Input Sets, List Views, and Detail Views.
• Modes: Creating dynamic UI behavior based on data (e.g., showing different fields for Auto vs. Property claims).
• Post-On-Change and Partial Page Rendering.

Lab: creating a new "Fraud Investigation" screen within the Claim file.

The Guidewire Rule Engine.

Rule Sets:

• Pre-Update / Post-Update: Validating data before saving.
• Segmentation: Automatically categorizing claims (High/Low complexity).
• Assignment: Round-robin and attribute-based assignment logic.

Validation Rules: Hard blocks vs. Warnings.

Lab: Writing a rule to auto-assign all "Fire" claims to a specific user group.

• Activity Patterns: Configuring task generation logic.
• Financial Configuration: Customizing Reserve lines and Cost Types.
• Transaction Rules: Logic for Checks, Payments, and Recoveries.
• Implementing Authority Limits logic via code.

Lab: Creating an automated activity that triggers when a Reserve exceeds $10,000.

• Introduction to the Guidewire Workflow Engine.
• Designing flows for long-running processes (e.g., Litigation, Salvage).
• Workflow steps, triggers, and timeouts.
• Sub-flows and wait states.

Plugin Architecture: Modifying OOTB interfaces (e.g., IClaimNumberGen).

Messaging System:

• Event-fired rules.
• Message Transport plugins.
• Message queues and acknowledgement mechanisms.

Lab: Creating a Message Transport to export claim data to an external data warehouse.

• Publishing Services: Exposing ClaimCenter logic via SOAP/WSDL and REST.
• Consuming Services: Generating WSDL stubs to call external vendors (e.g., Kelley Blue Book, Rental Car services).
• GX Model: Serializing XML data for integration.
• Lab: Building a web service that allows an external portal to create a First Notice of Loss (FNOL).

• Using the Studio Debugger (Breakpoints, Watch lists).
• Gosu Scratchpad: Quick code testing.
• Profiler: Analyzing performance issues.
• Logging frameworks and best practices.
• Overview of the deployment process (WAR file generation).
