Touchstone 2024 (12.0) includes new features and enhancements to the user interface, and updates to the Verisk Models. Information specific to software and model updates, installation, technical specifications, log into the Client Portal and read the following resources:
- Touchstone 2024 API Documentation
- Touchstone 2024 Release Documentation
- Hot Fixes and Services Packs
We made the following schema changes to accommodate new features and enhancements.
We updated the Touchstone user interface and databases to include the model capabilities.
- We added a new peril and peril set code for smoke in the tPeril table in AIRReference. This allows Touchstone to account for exposures exposed to smoke peril.
- To account for losses due to smoke, we added a new CoversSmoke property for the existing tPerilSet table in AIRReference.
- We added UPX peril and the corresponding peril set code for smoke in the tConvertUPXPerilSet table in AIRReference.
Data updates
- Annual data updates for AIRReference including additional validation error codes, construction/occupancy codes, and peril set codes.
New table
We added the following new table:
| Table | Description |
|---|---|
| AIRReference.tBackwaterValveProtection |
We added a new secondary risk characteristic (SRC) to identify locations exposed to backwater flooding. Touchstone uses this SRC to quantify and account for the damages caused by an ice jam event, which eventually leads to backwater flooding. |
Modified table
We made the following update to the database schema:
| Table | Description |
|---|---|
| AIRReference.tPeril |
We added a new peril and peril set code for the smoke peril that you can run as a stand-alone peril:
|
| AIRReference.tPerilSet | We added a new CoversSmoke property that Touchstone uses to identify exposures prone to smoke peril. |
|
We added a new BackwaterValveProtectionCode property for location exposures. |
