in4mo Basics

To get the most from the in4mo service you need to know the basics. Here we explain all from case list and dashboard to statuses and the process steps.

Introduction to in4mo’s services

in4mo’s tool consists of two parts:

The web portal shows all the information about your cases, inclusive reporting items from the damage site (pictures, text-messages, measurements, etc.). Here you can allocate and edit tasks as well as create and upload inspection reports.

The mobile application, installed in a smart telephone or a tablet, is used for reporting from damage sites (e.g. to take pictures and fill out inspection reports).


Workflow phases

The following flow chart explains the different phases of the in4mo solution.

Web portal

You get started by logging in to the web portal with your email address and password.

If you have forgotten your password, click on the blue Forgot your password? link.

Even if your account has been locked, you can use this button to change your password with a link which you will receive by mail, this will unlock the account.

Case list view

The case list on the first page shows you all the cases assigned to you and your company depending on your authority level and your role.

Click on Map view to see the cases in a map view.

Basic information is visible for every case on the case list. To open a particular case, click on the case in question.

Dashboard view

The dashboard provides an overview of all the needed actions to be taken by your company. What you can see in the dashboard varies based on your role and authority level. [Before you read further, please view this video for a more comprehensive introduction.]





1 Here you can see the total amount of cases, where an action is required from your company. The actions might not be expected from you personally.

2 There are filters, which you can use to get more details about your own tasks, or all tasks assigned to your company, if you have authority level 2 or higher.

Note! Tables 3 and 4 are affected by the filter chosen here.

3 The table shows how many completed inspections are waiting for compensation decision and how many budgets are waiting for approval.

The first field Cases without any allocated tasks will always be empty for you.

The last field Cases without ongoing tasks shows all the cases where all the tasks are completed.

Note! The numbers in this table (3) show the amount of cases, not tasks. Thus, one case might contain several unapproved budgets. When you press a number, the relevant cases will be shown below the dashboard table.

4 This table shows all the tasks in which actions are required. Note! This table shows numbers of tasks and one task can appear in more than one field.

  • The rows show the task types, categorized in 5 tasks. Click on Show all task types to see all task types.
  • The columns show the statuses C, 0, 0+, 1, 2 and 4 and indicate delays in the work process. Put your mouse over a column title to get an explanation:
    • Budget approval informs that a budget was sent for approval in a task, but it has not yet been approved or rejected. The task can either be in status B or 3-.
    • Delay in agreed meeting time indicates if the task is on time or not. For inspections, this column is based on the defined case times of the insurance company. For other tasks, the number will be green until the end of the business day on the day preceding the date set as the start date. The day the task has been set to start the number will be in the yellow box until the end of the business day after which it turns to red.
    • Delay on estimated completion time when a task is ongoing in status 3. For inspections, this is calculated from the agreed meeting time using the defined case time. For other tasks, it will be green until the end of the business the day before the estimated end time. At the end of the business day preceding the estimated end date, the number will move to yellow and be yellow until the end of the business day of scheduled end date after which it will turn to red if the task has not been finished or the end date moved to a date in the future.

The office hours and the target times for inspection tasks are defined by the insurance company and can therefore be different in each company.

Tasks in green are on time.
Yellow guides you to prioritize the tasks.
Red informs that the target time for the action has passed and
action should be taken immediately.

Icons in the web portal and mobile application

Status icons are used in handing of cases and they show in which phase a particular task is at the moment.
