Kubota: Draft Claims Submission
The Kubota Draft Claim Submission interface allows users to submit draft warranty claims from the Work Order Segments screen. A draft claim screen is displayed and populated by data from segments on the work order. The user needs to complete the draft claim and submit it to Kubota to finalize the process. This process means a user no longer needs to rekey work order segment data for Kubota equipment repairs.
To access the Draft Claims Submission screen navigate to Product Support > Service > Work Orders > Search for the desired Work Order > Segments tab > Work Order Options sub menu > Kubota Draft Claim Submission.
