To create a supplier warranty type, you can either use a predefined warranty type templates or you can create one manually. Several warranty types can be connected to an object.
The create/edit dialog box is reached by clicking in the page or the line in question and choosing Supplier Warranty/Create/Edit... In the dialog box, the warranty types can be removed or added, and the data defined for a warranty type and the warranty conditions can be modified.
When the Customer Order Connection option is selected, the warranty dates will be calculated when a part is delivered to the customer. When the option is cleared, the warranty dates will be calculated when a part is received into inventory. This is only used for serial tracked parts.
If the Convert To Customer Warranty option is selected, a customer warranty will be created having the same information as the supplier warranty. This customer warranty will be generated when a part is received into inventory and is only used for serial tracked parts.
A supplier warranty type is added to the object, the supplier warranty option is selected, and a warranty number for the object is created. When additional warranty types are added to the object, they are connected to this warranty number.
If all supplier warranty types are removed, the supplier warranty option is cleared.
