Support

Issues, service level agreements and warranty claims.

In detail

Support handles after sales service: Issue for complaints and queries, Service Level Agreement for promised response times, Warranty Claim and Maintenance Visit. A refund query from a customer logged as an Issue is the demo case. Support staff use it daily. It posts nothing to the ledger, but an issue that ends in a refund becomes a credit note, which is a Sales Invoice return that reverses Debtors, income and VAT Payable and must also reach CBMS. Keeping issues linked to the original invoice makes that step easy.

  5. 05If a refund is agreed, create a credit note from the linked Sales Invoice.
  6. 06Close the issue with the resolution recorded.
