 +Another feature of the eclaim process is the ability to have eclaims Auto Submit and/or Auto Approve.  This setting is done at the company level and companies with this setting enabled will flow through the eclaim process automatically.
 +
 +Auto Submit: if a company has this enabled, any eclaim loaded for this claimant will move from draft to submitted and then into a Pend, Hold, Evaluation status.
 +
 +Auto Approve: if a company has this enabled, any eclaim loaded for this claimant will be auto approved once the claim is submitted (either via auto submit or manually).

 +__Process to name the file and save it to the FTP__
 +
 +Once the file is created save it as “1072_inbound_ claim_(manufacturer name)_(initials and date file is being saved to the ftp)
 +
 +  * Example:  1072_inbound_claim_PIN_tmm11142016.xlsx 
 +
 +Save the template to the specific clients FTP under the from Files\Inbound\From Distributors.
 +  
 +Manufacturer name use:  MFG (Manufacturer) where MFG is the 3 letter abbreviation followed by manufacturer name
 +
 +If you create more than one file a day then add a _1 at the end of the file name, increasing the number by 1 each time.  
 +
 +**IMPORTANT:  Also, save the original documents to the FTP as well.  Make sure to save then with the exact file name noted in the File_name field on the excel document so the process can match it up to the claim created.  
 +FTP Login choose your client**

 +**__Eclaim Load Duplicate Checking__**
 +
 +Process to determine duplicates - Eclaim Load:
 +
 +1. Check for possible Duplicate based on Header information (checks against both what is in the eclaim import tables and what is in the system for claims)
 +  * Claimant
 +  * Claimant Name
 +  * Invoice Number
 +  * Start Date
 +  * End Date
 +  * Total lines (Note: this is rarely if ever loaded as everything is calculated based on lines loaded)
 +  * Total Requested Amount (Note: this is rarely if ever loaded as everything is calculated based on lines loaded)
 +
 +2. Check line level for duplicates for those header rows that have been determined to be possible duplicates
 +
 +  * Each line is checked for duplicates within eclaim import to prevent loading of duplicates  - it requires that all lines match exactly to be considered a duplicate
 +
 +3. Exact Duplicates are tagged and ignored preventing the load of the invoice from progressing any further
 +
 +Recap:  If we load (2) files they contain the same invoice, but they are not exact matches at the header level, they will not be flagged as a possible duplicate, add into that the change of the claimant to the invoice that you are doing, the second file would not see a possible duplicate in the system either because the claimant being loaded is not the one on the invoice that it should see as a duplicate.  Everything for eclaim is based at INVOICE level not claim level.
