How does Digital Adjuster work, in general?
At the heart of Digital Adjuster is a relational database. This means that photos selected, Claim information entered, and Adjuster Information entered can all be related together to form a whole and cohesive “picture” of a claim. You take photos with your digital camera and save those photos to your hard drive. When you create a claim with Digital Adjuster, you select those photos from your hard drive. The photos are not actually copied into Digital Adjuster – that would make the database grow far too large to work well. Instead, just the location of your photo on the hard drive is saved with the other claim information. For example, if you save your photos to the folder: C:\Claims\DigitalPhotos\Claim12345 then when you select a photo from this folder, the above reference is saved with the Claim information. If you were to move or delete the photo selected, then you would have to change the reference to this photo in Digital Adjuster, or just delete the photo item from Digital Adjuste
