Product Warranty Cost Schedule Line Layout (PWS)
The Product Warranty Cost Schedule (PROD_WARR_CST_SCH) table stores information used to calculate the warranty costs.
You cannot process Product Warranty Cost Schedule Line Types unless information from the Item, Item Product, and Product Price Catalog tables (or input files for new records) exists.
This Line Type is required if the Warranty Cost Calculation Code is C (Cost Schedule). Otherwise, the record is rejected.
There cannot be any gaps in the date range, and each new date range must not overlap any existing rows. Each new row must have a start date one day later than the latest end date (or earlier than all existing start dates).
The Unit Cost Amount can be updated if values exist for the Start Date and End Date fields.
If the End Date value exists, the program updates the existing End Date value by changing the current End Date value to one day before the provided Start Date.
For example, if a row currently exists with the following values:
| START_DT | END_DT | UNIT_CST_AMT |
|---|---|---|
| 01/01/2006 | 12/31/2007 | 516.97 |
A line is encountered in the input file with the following values:
| START_DT | END_DT | UNIT_CST_AMT |
|---|---|---|
| 04/01/2006 | 12/31/2007 | 549.16 |
The End Date of the existing row is modified and a new row is inserted. The two rows contain the following values:
| START_DT | END_DT | UNIT_CST_AMT |
|---|---|---|
| 01/01/2006 | 03/31/2006 | 516.97 |
| 04/01/2006 | 12/31/2007 | 549.16 |
You can view or update the information stored in this table on the Warranty Information subtask of the Manage Product Price Catalogs screen in Costpoint Product Definition.
