In the event
of a disaster you will have many items that will be lost at one time. These items
will be either replaced or you will be reimbursed money for the lost via your
insurance company. It is a good idea to have a report that you can supply to
your insurance carrier detailing the items that were lost, the cost and other important
information. It's also beneficial to do this for your own purposes such
as keeping historical data on the items and the disaster for future reference
as well as a tracking history (notes) as what was discussed between you and the
insurance company regarding this loss. After the claim has been settled you can
then come back to this list and Archive
(move) all items that were lost to an archive database file.
To you
must first tag the items before you can Mark
Items as a loss
To Tag all
items use the Search feature to do
this as shown below. The reason for this is because this list
is a filtered list and is only displaying records for a specific
location. If a Tag All button was used then all records including those not in
the view would be tagged which would not be suitable for this
procedure.
To
tag all items
create a search using the Item
ID number that "Is
Greater Than Or Equal" to 1
. See figure
1.
Also see figure 2 for other search examples. See Figure 3 to
see a tagged
list.
Figure 1
Using the Search allows many more options:one
example would be to search and mark all items for a
particular room or a few rooms at once. Such as a fire destroyed only your
kitchen, garage and the family room. You can use one search to do this. See
below figure 2 . Once found all
and only items in each of those rooms would be tagged and viewed.
