Merging Claims 5276 4
Started by JimGary
Does anyone know if you can merge assignments with Xactimate. For example adjuster A gets assignemnt but is busy, call buddy adjuster B and ask if they can inspect the property. B scopes and scetches, prepairs esimate, emails data file to A. Can A merge the estimate with original assignment I've done this with auto programs before, but cannot find a way with Xm8.
&160;
Thanks
JWG

Xactimate Contents Surprise 9580 4
Started by Leland
I really need to vent about a very annoying surprise that Xactimate hides in the program.
Let's say if you have a fountain that is cemented down or somehow fixed in place. Most adjusters would correctly &160;consider that 'other structures' kjust like a fence, a permanently installed basketball hoop, etc.
Watch out!&160; If you choose the fountain line item, you will discover the hard way, after you print the estimate and check it, that Xactimate has decided you fountain is CONTENTS! and sep...

What's included in Xactvalue? 6451 6
Started by Leland
If a home burns to the ground and the carrier is comfortable with an Xactvalue estimate for the rebuild, what is and is not included in the Xactvalue total
I'm pretty sure temporary power, temporary fencing, demolition of the existing structure, debris disposal, damaged fencing etc. is NOT included.
I'm not so sure if all the permits and fees, architectural fees etc. ARE included.
There also has to be some difference between New Construction and old construction: a burned house stil has a se...

Xactimate 25 conflict with Simsol 4746 2
Started by iCAT
Be very careful from what I just heard the other day installing xactimate will compromise your Simsol program if it is already loaded on your CPU. The source was tech support guy with Simsol and he stated it delets core files in Simsol. I would think this maybe an issue that would I would be very wary of, since I feel xactimate is an inferior program compared to Simsol. Even though I am not a fan anyone should be very careful when proceeding with an xactimate 25 install. You should of course bac...

My customer service experience with Xactimate 7887 12
Started by Bobabooey
2 weeks ago I had a question about printing the narrative on the report. I got online and chatted with the technician. His response to my question after holding for about 15 minutes was to type the word narrative in the help box, so i just hung up on them.
Today I had a few questions about setting up a claim in xactimate. After my latest experience with the on-line help, I paid 20 bucks ( I still can't believe I have to pay 20 bucks to get help with a program that I am...

Roof1, Roof2, Roof3 4408 3
Started by host
Have you ever seen an Xactimate estimate that contains a refernce to Roof1, Roof2, Roof3 and so on In most cases this is because the estimate writer is using the 'Roof Icon' or the 'f' key to add additions to their roof. I have added a tip in my blog to show you how to avoid this. You can find it here.

Hi All,

Xactimate Price list 43433 11
Started by russh
Hello all,
We started using Xactimate last year in an effort to minimize haggling over repair cost's with insurance adjuster and companies. After getting started we started noticing that the price list Xactimate provided us was much different in cost's then price list's used by several insurance companies. We made a note of those price list codes and attempted to download them from Xacatimate, using the download custom price list option to no avail.
We were very wrong in thinking we'd g...

Has anyone installed Xactimate 24 on a Vista machine using the work around I am curious as to how many problems it will present. The Xactimate site says that it is available, but has not been tested.

When attempting to install on my new computer, I found that Xactimate 24 is not compatible with Windows Vista. Checked Xactimate website and they do not have a fix at the moment. Sure hope they come up with one before the storm season gets into full swing. Don't retire those old computers just yet!

Xactimate 5518 2
Started by Bobabooey
I just started using Xactimate a couple of months ago (Have used integri for years) Why is it so hard to draw a roof using this thing I have found it virtually impossible to draw a steep cut up roof. My buddy works for Farmers and said they just scan their drawing into the system.
Why doesn't Xactimate change sketch when one of the largest carriers in the nation has to have their adjusters scan handwritten diagrams into their claims

electrical estimating- megameter 11309 5
Started by Leland
I recently figured out that the "megameter" line item in Xactimate should really be "Megger Meter".
A Megameter has nothing to do with electricity. It's a tool for astronomy. (you can Google it).
Megger, however, is a UK company that has been making electrical test equipment for almost 100 years. The Xactimate photo shows a device with a hand crank, so it can be cranked up (like a Russian battery free flashlight) and then used to test a rewired building with highe...
