The Equipment tab permits the user to associate equipment to a warranty by applying and managing warranty coverage. One or more warranty coverage records may be established for a piece of equipment for tracking purposes to ensure that stipulations of the warranty are adhered to both internally and externally. In general, there are two types of warranty coverage records that can be tracked for equipment: calendar-based and meter-based. The terms "meter-based" and "usage-based" are considered the same and are used interchangeably throughout this document. Warranty coverage records can only exist in the system for an Asset, Position, and System; warranties cannot be tracked for Locations or established for other equipment module records such as Categories or Profiles.

Calendar-based coverage records require a duration value expressed in days. The start and expiration of this type of warranty for a given piece of equipment is expressed in terms of calendar dates. Meter-based warranty coverage records require a duration value expressed in some UOM other than days, so a UOM is also required for this type of warranty. Note that the UOM of the warranty will also have to be one that is defined as a logical meter for the equipment. The start and expiration of this type of warranty for a given piece of equipment is expressed in terms of usage.
