Asset Category Level Warranty
Navigation: Sites > Organizations > Select an Organization > Admin > Asset Category Level Warranties.
Typically, warranty information is applied at the asset level, but in cases where an asset tag is not appropriate, such as for a roof, warranty functionality without asset tagging will exist.
Warranty associations can be defined at the category/sub-category level for specific providers and sites, with set warranty start and end dates.
When a work order is created without an asset tag for a configured category/sub-category, it will be flagged as a warranty work order (regardless of whether the particular asset is in warranty or not). Warranty will also be applied to the invoice.
