Summary

The following article explains how to deal with Warranty Payments for jobs put through the workshop.

More Information

Once a warranty claim has been filed with the manufacturer or warranty company, approval received and work carried out and completed, you will be reimbursed for the work undertaken.

See How do I create a warranty account? and How do I create a workshop warranty job? for how to process warranty jobs through the Workshop system.

Manufacturer Warranty

Most manufacturers will reimburse you with a credit note to set against your account with them.

You should post this credit note onto the supplier account in your Purchase Ledger.

  • When posting the credit note you should allocate it to a purchase centre which links to the Warranty Control nominal centre. The standard centre issued with the system is '750' and links to Nominal centre '75001' Warranty Control.
If you do not have these centres in your system please see this article to create the purchase centre and this article to create the nominal centre.
  • The nett amount of the credit should equal the value of the workshop warranty job, if the claim has been settled in full.
    • If the claim is for less than the work carried out you may choose to journal the balance on your warranty control nominal to a Profit & Loss - Warranty Loss/Gain nominal centre.
    • If you choose to pay off the warranty invoice when you receive the claim you may deal with writing off the difference via Sales Ledger receipts - see How do I create a warranty account?.

Third Party Warranty Company

If you are carrying out work for a third party warranty company, you will be able to invoice the workshop job as though it was a retail job and take payment in the usual manner, either against the workshop job itself or via the Sales Ledger Receipts.
