About claim reports

Updated by Heather Jones

Projects in most profiles have claim reports, which users can access for various documentation. The specific reports available depend on which profile the project uses. You cannot change an existing project’s profile, but you can create a duplicate project under a different profile. 

To access claim reports: 

  1. From within the project, navigate to Documents > Reports.
  2. Select Claim Reports.

Activity Report

The Activity Report shows all the activities that the user has recorded for a claim. It shows the type of activity, dates due and completed, time spent, and expense information. Activity notes can be saved and re-used on multiple claims. For more information about the Activity Report, see Report Management: Claim Reports - Activity Report in the eService Center.

Additional Living Expenses

The Additional Living Expenses report includes the extra costs incurred by the insured while living offsite while the residence is repaired. These costs are not part of the estimate, but they are part of the claim. Most homeowner policies include a coverage called Loss of Use, usually listed as Coverage D in their policy documents. This coverage helps pay for additional living expenses incurred because of the loss.

Since the costs are not part of the estimate, they are not added in Estimate Items, and there are no estimate items for the types of costs typically incurred with Loss of Use. Costs can be entered directly into the Additional Living Expenses report in Report Management.

See Additional Living Expenses in the eService Center for more information on this report.

Advance Payment Text

The Advance Payment Text details the amount of an advance payment requested and states specific details about liability and how the advance payment relates to the insured’s policy.

The report includes information from the following locations in the project: 

  • Claim Info > Insured Info

Notes about adding specific information to this report:
