Zone set filter

Admin > Administration Console > Object Management > Zone Set Manager: Zones

The Zone Set Manager offers toggles which allow the user to include or exclude zones specific to Aggregate Loss (Touchstone Re) or Detailed Loss (Touchstone). These toggles sit above the zone selection panes and are to the right of the label Create Zone For. Both toggles can be selected or deselected.

If the Touchstone toggle is enabled, only zone information specific to Touchstone will display in the zone panes including geographies which are compatible for detailed loss for the modeled region only, and relevant postal information

If the Touchstone Re toggle is enabled, only zone information specific to Touchstone Re will display in the zone panes including geographies for the modeled region only. Postal information is not included.

If both Aggregate and Detailed loss filters are selected, then only geographies supported for zonal loss accumulation in both products will be enabled.

A Clear Invalid Areas option is available next to the filtering options should a user want to edit an existing zone that is not compatible with a particular analysis type. Once the user checks the aggregate or detailed loss filter, any geographies that were previously checked that are not compatible will become disabled in the Zone Set Manager and the Clear option will become selectable to quickly remove them from the zone.
