Improved Warranty Determination

New warranty-related fields are available on service transaction header and item level. There is now a warranty assignment block available on header and item level.

In Customizing, you maintain a profile for a warranty check. Use the following menu path in Customizing: ServiceTransactionsSettings for Service TransactionsDefine Profile for Warranty Check.

The flag Consider Expired Warranty (in the profile for warranty checks) controls the activation of the expired warranty functionality. This functionality allows the warranty ID field to be filled even for cases where the warranty has expired. This functionality keeps the Under Warranty flag (in the service order item) false by default.
