Add Incident Dollar Loss and Value

Estimated dollar loss is required for all fires where the value is known.

Note: Often, a better estimate of losses for a fire becomes available after the incident report is submitted. Revision of the original estimate should be made as a change entry when better information becomes available, especially for large fires.

You can add extended loss and value information for insured and settlement amounts, and capture property insurers.
