Replacement Codes

Overview

The table holds the Tyre replacement codes defined by the supplier (e.g. ATS) and used within the supplier Tyre Import .csv file that is imported. These codes are cross-references with the Kestrel Reason for Repair codes in the Tyre Import Other Codes file so that the data held within the imported file can be converted into recognisable approval records.
