Warranties

Warranties that activate
themselves.

Define warranty policies, link them to products, and let the system activate warranties automatically when goods are delivered. Track claims, swaps, and serial numbers across the full lifecycle.

Key capabilities

Policy management, automatic activation, serial tracking, and structured swap processing — everything warranty requires.

Warranty policies

Create policies with configurable duration in months. Set whether warranty starts on delivery date or purchase date. Define allowed resolutions: repair, replace, refund, or credit. Optionally require serial numbers for claims.

Product linking

Link policies to specific products or product variants. Variant-specific policies take priority over product-level policies. Enable or disable links per product without affecting delivery.

Auto-activation on delivery

When a dispatch job is marked as delivered, warranties are created automatically for every product with a linked policy. Non-blocking — delivery always succeeds even if warranty creation fails.

Policy snapshots

Warranty terms are frozen at the moment of activation. Future edits to the policy do not change existing warranties. Each warranty record is a self-contained snapshot of the original policy.

Manual warranty creation

Create warranties at any time for any reason — goodwill extensions, items not tracked through dispatch, retroactive coverage. Same structure as auto-created warranties.

Warranty statuses

Active → Claimed when referenced by an RMA. Active → Expired when past the end date. Active → Voided when manually cancelled. Full lifecycle tracking.

Warranty swaps

When a defective unit is replaced, the system preserves the full history of the original serial. Invoice and document links transfer from old serial to new. The warranty period does not reset or extend on swap — original end date maintained.

Serial number integration

Every warranty ties to a specific inventory unit and its serial number. Serial event timeline records warranty activation, claims, and swaps as immutable events. Complete chain from original unit to replacement.

How it works

From policy definition to automatic activation — four steps, zero manual work.

Define policy

Set duration, start trigger, and allowed resolutions

Link to products

Attach policies to products or specific variants

Deliver goods

Dispatch job marked as delivered by the driver

Warranty activates

Created automatically with a frozen policy snapshot

Swap process

Warranty swaps, fully traced

When a defective unit is returned under warranty, the replacement process maintains a complete audit chain from the original serial to its replacement — with no gaps in the record.

The swap lifecycle

Every step in a warranty swap is recorded, linked, and auditable.

Defective unit returned under warranty
Replacement unit issued from stock
Original serial preserved with full history
Document links transferred to replacement serial
Original warranty end date maintained — no extension on swap
Auditable chain linking original and replacement serials

Why it matters

Know instantly if a claim is valid — warranty status, terms, and allowed resolutions are checked automatically against the policy

No disputed claims over changed terms — policy snapshots freeze the warranty at activation so neither side can argue what was agreed

Trace any unit from original purchase to replacement — serial numbers link the complete chain with no gaps

Warranty swaps that don't create accounting headaches — documents transfer to the new serial and the original end date holds

Stop honouring expired warranties by mistake — active, expired, and voided statuses are enforced automatically

Returns follow a structured process — warranties connect directly to RMA so claims trigger the right workflow

One system for warranties, inventory, serial tracking, and billing — no spreadsheets to reconcile

Connected modules

Warranties don't live in isolation. They connect to the modules that matter.

RMA — warranty claims trigger structured return workflows
Inventory — swaps issue replacements from live stock
Serial tracking — immutable event timeline per unit
Billing — credit notes and refunds linked to warranty resolutions
Dispatch — delivery confirmation triggers auto-activation
