Default settings for activating warranty subscreen

[Former Member]

I have a requirement to activate the warranty subscreen for maintenance equipment. When this subscreen is activated, the "inherit warranty" and "pass on warranty" options are selected by default for equipment that already exists in the system. I want the equipment that already exists to not have those boxes checked.

Is there a way to configure the warranty subscreen or the equipment master record so that pre-existing pieces of equipment do not receive the "inherit warranty" and "pass on warranty" checks by default when the warranty subscreen is activated?

Hi,

They are set by default, no customizing to change this. You could use exit BG000001 to change the values. The flags just influence the display of warranty data for higher/lower levels of technical objects. Check the F1-Help on the flags for more detailed information.

Thanks for your response. I understand what the flags do. My concern is accidentally passing on or inheriting a warranty incorrectly because the flags were set by default for equipment that was already created before the warranty check was activated. I don't expect it to be a big issue, but I wanted to eliminate that possibility from the beginning if possible.

I am leaving the thread unanswered for a bit to see if there are other responses.
