Vehicle Tab

Options Tab

Use the Options tab to identify the standard and extra options included on the vehicle.

Select complete and correct options to ensure an accurate ACV amount and estimate value for the vehicle. An accurate estimate value ensures an accurate ACV threshold. The ACV threshold activates the Total Loss Prompt when the estimate value exceeds the total loss threshold. Knowing when the estimate value exceeds the total loss threshold helps you avoid unnecessary costs and supplements.

Total Loss Prompt functionality is available when you enter an ACV Threshold amount on the Valuation tab.

Another value that affects the ACV amount is the vehicle and the mileage.

All selected options print on the estimate reports.
