The Warranty parameters form is displayed when you select the Warranty parameters option from the FORD WARRANTY menu. Within this form, you must enter the details for the warranty system appropriate to the dealership.
POS company number: Point-of-Sale company number.
Dealer code: Ford-supplied dealer code.
Expense RTS codes: Enter the RTS code for each expense. It is suggested that expenses are created as Standard RTS codes.
POS department codes: The department codes entered in the POS parameters. Normally Parts, Workshop/Service or Bodyshop. The department codes are accessed from the POS parameters option on the POS SYSTEM MAINTENANCE menu. They are found on the Main screen.
Dealer suffix codes: Ford-supplied suffix for POS department codes.
Note: UK suffixes are 2-character codes only, e.g. AA. There is no need to enter any leading or trailing zeros.
PC directory for exp: This is the directory on the PC into which the data is transferred. Enter C:\GWE. If you are not running the Autoline system and the Ford Warranty system from the same PC, or you are a sub dealer forwarding claims to a main dealer, you may need to download claims to floppy diskette. If this is the case, enter A:\ in this parameter.
Purge after: Enter the number of days that claims remain on the Autoline system. Claims older than the period entered in this parameter are deleted automatically when the Purge option is taken.
Last batch number: The last batch number assigned on transfer to GWE. This field is initially set to zero and is automatically incremented each time a batch of claims is created.
Is markup applied?: Yes or No. The default set within this parameter is used by the Markup field on the Parts details tab of the claim.
