ClaimWizard Getting Started Guide

In order to get the best benefit from the ClaimWizard system, an understanding of the ‘basics’ is helpful. In this Getting Started Video Guide there are four video walkthrough screencasts that will introduce you to the major sections and processes in ClaimWizard:

  1. Basic Navigation
  2. Workbench Basics
  3. Manually Adding a New Client, Property & Claim
