Warranty letters list

Learn how to list, search and manage warranty letters in Logzi.

Function overview

In this module you can review and manage your Warranty letters. A warranty letter records the period for which you guarantee the products you have sold to a partner. The list page gives you one place to reach every warranty letter you have created, search among them, and start the most important actions (create new, close, delete, copy, download, invoicing).

  • Clear list: warranty letters are shown in a paged table with document number, date, partner, employee and status.
  • Quick actions: with one click you can open, close, delete, copy or download the selected warranty letter without entering the document.
  • Preview panel: below the list you can instantly see the items of the selected warranty letter (warranty start and end) without leaving the list.
  • Automatic creation: a gross value limit can be set in the company settings; accordingly, the system can also create warranty letters automatically for products under warranty.

The possible states of a Warranty letter are: Draft, Closed, Cancellation, Cancelled. A Draft can still be edited, a Closed document is final; a Cancellation or Cancelled document is deleted or cancelled and cannot be restored. The restrictions of each state are described in the Frequently asked questions section.

The preview panel

When you select a warranty letter in the table, the panel below the list shows its details so you do not have to open it. The tabs of the panel:

  • Items: the products on the warranty letter with Name, Item number, Quantity, Warranty start and Warranty end.
  • Related documents: other documents linked to the warranty letter.
  • List of serial numbers: the breakdown by the unique identifiers (serial numbers) recorded for the items.

With the icon in the top right corner of the panel you can pin or unpin it.

  • Sent items: view the emails previously sent for the warranty letter.
  • New email: write a new email related to the warranty letter, using the External mail client or the Internal mail client.
  • New task: create a task related to the warranty letter.

If you right-click a warranty letter row, the most common actions (New, Open, Close, Delete, Cloning) are also available from a context menu.

Tip


You can quickly check when a product warranty expires: find the partner warranty letter on the Search tab by Partner company name, select the row, and the Items tab of the preview panel immediately shows the Warranty end date — without opening the document.

You can create a new warranty letter based on this help page: Warranty letters sheet.

Frequently asked questions

Close is available only for Draft warranty letters. When closed, the document is finalized and its items can no longer be modified. A Draft or Closed document can be deleted, but a deleted or cancelled warranty letter cannot be restored. If you need to correct a closed document, use Cloning to create a new warranty letter in Draft state.

These actions are available only for Closed warranty letters. If the selected document is a Draft, close it first with the Close button. The PDF preview can be opened even before closing.

The preview panel always shows the data of the warranty letter selected in the table. Until you select a row, the panel stays empty — click a warranty letter row and its items appear.

Click the New button, or choose Main menu / Sales / Warranty letters / New. You can read how to fill in the sheet on the Warranty letters sheet help page.

The Warranty letters module appears under Main menu / Sales only if it is assigned to your user. If you cannot see it, ask your system administrator to check the module assignment in your user settings.
