In simple terms one pilot is designated Captain for the leg and if you don't hold the rank of Captain it should not be claimed as PIC.
One pilot is designated Commander for the flight or series of flights. Captain is a company rank; Commander carries a legal definition.

I'm not sure how the FAA system is justifiable. How on earth can you have more than one pilot in command?
