Guidewire Core Workflow B: Claims Processing
Overview
Master the complete claims lifecycle in ClaimCenter: First Notice of Loss (FNOL), claim investigation, reserve setting, payments, and settlement.
Prerequisites
- Completed
guidewire-install-authandguidewire-core-workflow-a - Understanding of claims handling processes
- Valid API credentials with claims admin permissions
Claims Lifecycle States
FNOL -> Open -> Investigation -> Evaluation -> Negotiation -> Settlement -> Closed
[Draft] [Open] [Reserve] [Exposure] [Payment] [Settle] [Closed]
Instructions
Step 1: Create FNOL
POST to /fnol/v1/fnol with loss date, loss type/cause, description, policy number, loss location, and reporter details.
Step 2: Add Exposures
POST exposures to /claim/v1/claims/{id}/exposures specifying exposure type (VehicleDamage, BodilyInjury), loss party (insured, claimant), and primary coverage.
Step 3: Add Incidents
POST vehicle incidents with severity, damage description, vehicle details, and operability status.
Step 4: Set Reserves
POST reserves to each exposure specifying reserve line (indemnity, expenses), cost type, category, and amount.
Step 5: Create Payments
POST payments with payment type (partial, final), exposure reference, payee, reserve line, amount, and payment method (check).
Step 6: Close Exposures
POST to each exposure's /close endpoint with the closed outcome (completed, denied, duplicate).
Step 7: Close Claim
POST to /claim/v1/claims/{id}/close with outcome. All exposures must be closed first.
