Getting a Salvage Value

This feature is available to users who have the Salvage Dynamic Threshold Total vs. Repair (TvR) comparison feature.

To get a salvage value, ensure you have completed your estimate in CCC ONE® Estimating. If applicable, add digital images to the Workfile as required. When the words “over threshold” appear next to the Estimate Total, click on the Total Loss tab to begin a total loss analysis.

A form opens when the Get Salvage Value button is selected on the Settlements tab. This form allows users to provide additional details that will be considered in the salvage value retrieval. These fields are NOT required. See the full list of available selections for each drop down menu below:
