Requests with an Installed Item with a warranty

CRM.COM allows you to create Service Request and specify items that are affected.

In case that the item has a warranty then the system will automatically identify the warranty and make it available to the user. 
Note that you cannot add warranties to items using Service Requests; this can only be done via Jobs: Initial - Applying Warranty Policies to Physical Goods. Service Request are used to provide you with information as to whether the installed item which has already been provided to a customer is covered by a Warranty or not.
NoteWhether an installed item is eligible to coverage (i.e. free replacement) is dependent on the Coverage Reason; therefore once the applied warranty is provided by the system (after the agent selects the item), it is up to the agent to select the reason that the installed item is reported as required to be replaced and according to the coverage reason configuration the system will inform the agent whether the item is covered or not.

Request Related to a Physical Good 

Service Requests can be used to identify whether a damaged Physical Good requiring replacement is under Warranty and can be replaced free of charge.

Note

Warranties cannot be added to items by using Service Requests; only by using Jobs.
