In addition to naming the Warranty Company as the Recipient, we must also address the Employee who will receive this paperwork. This information should be presented on the “Name” line.

First, report the building number, street, and suite number in the Warranty Company’s mailing address on the “Street Address” line while the line below it expects the appropriate “City, state,” and “Country.”The “ZIP Code” assigned by the Postal Service to the Warranty Company’s mailing address is expected on the next line of this section.

The full name of the Client requesting the Warranty Company to repair, replace, or correct defective or damaged items covered by the warranty must be reported on the “Name” line in the next section on the left (titled “Client Information”).

The two next two lines are appropriately labeled to accept and display these contact items appropriately.
The mailing address the Client wishes used for contact regarding the warranty, the work order, or other relevant correspondence should be displayed using the final three lines of the “Client Information” section. This content should be divided as content for the “Street Address” line then material for the “City, State, Country,” and “Zip Code” lines.

Naturally, when a warranty is involved, timelines relating to the Client’s satisfaction can become especially important very quickly. Therefore, a measure to prevent any misunderstandings regarding when work will begin and when it will finish. The “Expected Start Date” should be populated with the calendar day the Warranty Company will begin work. The day when the warranty repairs or replacements are completed should be set to a specific calendar date. The “Expected End Date” line will enable this documentation once the warranty project’s completion date is entered on it.
Step 6 – Apply A Definition To Each Defective Item Under Warranty
The table occupying the center of this work order shall seek a listing of the items eligible for warranty repair or replacement. Produce this inventory line by line in the “Description” column of this table. Record the “Quantity” of each item that must be attended to by the Warranty Company in the second column.
The “Unit Cost” area of the table, making up the third column, also requires a definition provided. This value must be recorded as a dollar amount that defines the cost of one piece or unit of the warranty item being discussed on that row.
Step 7 – Report The Value Of The Warranty Repairs Or Replacements
Now that definitions of the warranty items have been produced, locate the “Amount” column where the price of each warranty item must be documented. Each row presenting a warranty item, product, or part must have its “Quantity” multiplied with its “Unit Cost” since the “Amount” must be the result of this calculation. Fill in the final field of each populated row with the result of this calculation under the “Amount” heading. The final column here will continue with some additional requests with some solitary fields beneath the table. The first of these is labeled with the term “Subtotal” and expects the sum of the warranty item amounts produced for display.
Next, apply the taxes that must be collected from the Warranty Client. Generally, this will be a sales “Tax,” a value-added “Tax” or, depending on the state governing the Warranty Company’s services, a Service Tax. It may also be a combination of one or more taxes. Make sure to calculate this value correctly based on the “Subtotal” then report it in “Tax.
