In this activity, you define warranty claim types and assign specific control parameters and default values to them.

The control parameters include:

The default values include:

  • Partner role and partner number
  • Sales organization, distribution channel, division
  • Purchasing organization
  • Plant
  • Version currency

Use

The values you define here are the values that appear in the F4 help for the warranty claim type in transaction WTY (header data).

You must assign a warranty claim type to every warranty claim that is created manually or automatically. You cannot create warranty claims without a warranty claim type.

The control parameters control how warranty claims of a particular claim type are processed

The default values help you with your entries. The system copies them over to all warranty claims of a particular claim type, where you can overwrite them if necessary. You can use the BAdI WTY_CREATE_COPY to edit the way default values are determined, change the values, and so on.

Note: If you subsequently change the settings for a claim type in Customizing, it can result in inconsistent data, because the system does not compare existing claims automatically. For example, if you specify a different action control for a claim type and it no longer contains a specific processing status, all old claims that currently have this processing status are no longer processed.

Requirements

Standard settings

The following warranty claim types are provided in the standard system:
