When to Use This

If an item from a Flat-Rate Cleaning Box doesn’t clean successfully (odor, damage, contamination, etc.) and wasn’t individually inventoried during pack-out, follow this process.


Quick Steps

1. Set aside failed items during cleaning

Keep all unsuccessful items together until the cleaning shift/job is complete.

2. Open iCat Inventory

You will create new line items and mark them as Replacement (non-salvage).

3. Create Room: “Restoration Non-Salvage”

Add a new room to clearly separate post-cleaning non-salvage items.

4. Set Status to “Replacement”

Before taking photos, tap Status and select Replacement for every item.

5. Use Quick-Shot Mode

Turn on Quick-Shot and take one photo per item.
Each tap creates a new Replacement (non-salvage) line item.

6. Upload & Share

Upload and share the non-salvage list with the adjuster/insured.


Important Note

Do NOT modify or delete the original flat-rate box group photo.
Your new Restoration Non-Salvage room provides the required item-level detail.
