Mapping LOB Values

Mapping LOB values.

There are several places in Touchstone where you can map unrecognized user line of business (LOB) values to valid Touchstone LOB values:

  • During export of exposure data to UNICEDE 2 files.

  • During export of loss results to company loss files (CLFs).

Touchstone maps a user LOB value to an Industry/UNICEDE LOB value only if the Industry/UNICEDE LOB value is valid for the selected country. For example, you cannot map a user LOB value for Japan to Mobile Home—if you try to copy and paste Mobile Home into a row where Japan is the country, nothing will change.

There are several methods for mapping LOB values after you navigate to an LOB Mapping tab.

  • Map a single unrecognized user LOB value to an industry or UNICEDE LOB value.

  • Copy and paste an LOB value.

  • Copy and paste a single LOB value into multiple LOB cells.

  • Copy and past LOB values from a spreadsheet into Touchstone.
