Creating a claim unit

Updated on January 27, 2021
  1. Log in as a dealer. For more information on login credentials, see Operators list and description.
  2. Click New > Claim.
  3. Enter the Serial number and Repair order opened date.
  4. Optional: In the automotive layer, enter the vehicle identification number (VIN), current odometer reading, engine hours and repair order opened date.
  5. Click Continue.
  6. Review the list of active warranties linked with the part and product, all of the provided previous interactions, and then click Start claim.
  7. Click the provided warranty name to open a PDF file and analyze the detailed information about a Warranty contract. For information about how to upload a Warranty contract, see Uploading a Warranty contract.
  8. Select the Claim type and Customer narrative, and then click Continue. The system validates required fields to identify the responding coverage, and if appropriate, automatically reports if coverage of the claim is not valid. The system also identifies active and responding coverages on the claim entry screen itself after entering the product serial number or VIN.
  9. Enter the repair order number and check-in date, and then click Continue.
  10. Add the repair lines and enter any necessary details in each repair line. Note that you can add multiple repair lines to one repair order case.
  11. Click Continue.
  12. Review the provided data and click Finish.

The system adds up all cost information for the claim and calculates the claim value based on the applicable warranty. The system applies business rules on the claim unit and determines the initial claim disposition.

The Warranty application can auto-adjudicate the claim and make the following determinations:

  • Pay the claim as-is (the status is automatically updated to Paid)
  • Pay the claim pending specific, required changes
  • Deny the claim
  • Return the claim to a dealer for more information
  • Route the claim unit to an assessor for a manual assessment
