| An Xmate question here, How do you take the O&P off of one line item and leave it on the ret of the sheet? I have a custom ordered $4,500 Pella window that Pella is going to come out and replace so I am considering it a bid item.
Thanks | |

| On that line item, left click on the unit price button, in the box that pops up, select the Non O & P button, click OK. | | | |

| Tim, I have asked MS/B is their Integraclaim would work on a Mac and they said no. I am going to assume Exactimate would not either, as they would have to rewrite to Mac windows code, and I doubt they would do that. Would be nice to have on a Mac air book, for sure. | |
Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts. | |

| How do you put the name of the insurance company on any paper work ? How do you set up the photo sheets to put some of the insured information on the photo sheet like the insureds name and address ? | | | |

| To add the insurance company name (in 24), you can go to Modules, then Contacts. I set up the company inside examiner as the Claim Representative, then on the Claim Rep info page, select the Detail tab, then the Company. This will show the company information on the Coversheet.
I show my information as the Estimator.
For photos only, with no estimate, I just include the coversheet that shows the insured's information. Unless you type it into the photo description box, I don't know of an easy way to get it on each page. Exactimate has a way to modify their forms with additional fields, but the last time I tried I spent 10+ hours, multiple calls to the help desk, etc. and finally gave up.
To use XM8 on a Mac, you may be able to do it using two operating systems, one for the Mac stuff and then load Windows XP for Xactimate. I know you can use two operating systems, but I don't know how it is done. | | | |

| I always like using the Xact photo sheets on liability, OTR cargo and scene investigation tasks. Just set up a dummy file in Xact with the insured name/claimant name, DOL & claim# only, loaded my photos to it & annotated them. Then saved them to my hard drive as pdf's and deleted the file off of Xact. Seemed easier than using some other generic type of photo sheet, but probably just because I was used to it. | | | |
