1 Replies and 4226 Views Function Keys  4226  1 Started by  Pforecast How do you setup the Function Keys to fill in information in XM8 27  I was looking for a way to use the function keys to label my photos.  F1 for Front Elevation, F2 for Right Elevation, etc.  I've seen it done, but the adjuster who had it setup had someone else set it up for him.  So, he wasn't able to show me how to set it up on my computer.  I know this can be done, but just need to know how to do it.

You can always pay a company to do it for a price, pay to download the images or you have this option. It has been very effective for me.  Using Xactimate 27.5 You can get the Xactimate 30 day demo free here. http://www.xactware.com/store/SelectCat.docatId=83 First you want to max out your screen resolution that retains proper aspect ratios.  Computer monitors / HD TV's come mostly in 4:3 / 16:9 (w...

3 Replies and 10318 Views Xactimate- residual deductible  10318  3 Started by  A_Casey I have a Citizens DP3 policy which is ACV. When I put in the parameterize that it's ACV of course I get the non recoverable depreciation on the final numbers. MY team lead says I need to take out the wording Non recoverable and make it recoverable. I change it to an RCV policy to show the depreciation, but I then get this residual deductible showing on the final. The insured's damages are under their deductible. Is there anyway around this Am I doing something wrong please help.

22 Replies and 22507 Views Xactimate putting squeeze on Demo 27  22507  22 Started by  Goldust
(Topic has multiple pages1 2 )
I just renewed the 27 demo so I can be up to snuff if storm hits. They informed me it would be the only time they could renew the 27 demo. After this they want me to subscribe and pay for it. Xactimate is getting to tight fisted w/ their service.I think this could upset people .I guess Xactimate thinks they have the market tied up so they can make the rules to fit their fancy.
