Reimbursement Claims |
The Reimbursement Claims screen enables you to define and update warranty claims made to vendors or manufacturers. Warranty claims are used to recover costs related to the failure of equipment units or parts under warranty and the return of core parts.
Note: The Warranty Claims screen was renamed Reimbursement Claims in Release 15.0.
Identifying the potential for warranty claims early in the repair process improves the recovery of warranty dollars by doing the following:
Influences how and by whom the repair is performed
Initiates conversations with vendors and suppliers to ensure your claim is honored:
Obtain required authorization
Maintain proper documentation
Save required parts
When a rebuilt part is replaced with the same part that has a different suffix, a warranty claim is generated for the removed part.
