Performing a Vehicle Valuation
In AudaPadWeb you have the possibility to use the Valuation Manager to calculate the replacement value of a vehicle and validate the value against the market using VALUEpilot. Using both tools ensure that you have the most accurate information available when making total loss decisions.
Both tools require special licensing but there is no restriction as to which you use or the order in which you use them.
It is also possible to use the system to generate a salvage recommendation for you. This is called the salvage relevance check. As with a short valuation, this can be executed together with a repair cost calculation and requires the first registration date of the vehicle and its mileage. You can read more about this in the section Performing a Salvage Relevance Check.

What is the principal difference between the Valuation Manager and VALUEpilot?
The two tools represent a completely different approach to calculating replacement vehicle value. The Valuation Manager is based on Eurotax Schwacke (ETS) market observation and provides a replacement value for a very specific vehicle with precisely defined vehicle equipment, tire condition, repair state and usage. These single figure valuations from ETS are a standard in the German market.
VALUEpilot is based on data from AUTOonline's wreck auctioning platform and actual internet offerings. VALUEpilot delivers a value corridor for a vehicle. A value corridor is simply a replacement vehicle range (rather than a single figure), for example 20,000 to 22,000 and shows the details of the current offerings that the range is calculated from.
