What are Warranty Coverage Reasons?
Warranty Coverage Reasons defines whether a Warranty Policy can cover a traceable physical good or not, i.e. they provide reasoning on an installed item's replacements which justifies the installed item's coverage by its related Warranty.
Multiple Coverage Reasons can be set up and be related to multiple Warranty Policies.

Once the Coverage Reasons are configured, they must be added to Warranty Policies, where it can be determined whether goods replaced using the Coverage Reason will be replaced free of charge or not,
i.e the same Coverage Reason may cover the replacement of a Physical Good (for free) when selected for one Warranty Policy, and not cover the replacement when selected for a different Warranty Policy
