XactXpert Rule Alerts worksheet

Updated by Arianne G.

The XactXpert Rule Alerts worksheet allows you to analyze basic XactXpert data such as Alert Type, Bypasser Name, and Rule Owner. XactXpert is a tool in Xactimate online that tracks errors in an estimate, such as missing information and other unmet requirements, and displays alerts to inform the user.

All search columns fall under two categories: attributes or measures.

Some chart types require a specific number of attributes and measures.

Attributes

Attributes are date or text values, such as names, addresses, and phone numbers; they’re highlighted in blue in the search field. Attributes usually appear on the x-axis of your charts. Below are the attributes that the XactXpert Rules Alerts worksheet includes.
