If the seller's address has changed, the seller must update the same on Seller Lab

14 days SLA will be applied at this stage
1st auto-email will be triggered from Warranty Seller form to the Seller/SC informing item is delivered along with Warranty Serviceability terms & conditions and SLA of 14 working days.
Warranty 2nd Seller communication will be sent on the 4th calendar day i.e. 3rd working day of the seller delivery date -- asking for the diagnose result.
Warranty 3rd Seller communication will be sent on the 8th calendar day i.e. 7th working day of the seller delivery date -- asking for the warranty resolution updates of the item.
Warranty 4th Seller communication will be sent on the 14th calendar day i.e. 13th working day of the seller delivery date -- reminding if the claim TAT breach, the claim will be refunded and billed to the seller.
Warranty 5th Seller communication will be sent on the 16th calendar day i.e. 15th working day of the seller delivery date -- informing the seller about the claim TAT is breached and the claim is refunded and billed to the seller.
Until the ticket is open, the automated seller communications will continue. The auto communications will only stop once the Warranty Seller claim ticket is solved
Serviceability Team will not close the ticket even if the seller has responded on the resolution and item collection coz the B2B Pickup remarks emails will be triggered on the same Warranty Seller ticket and it will auto-solve once either item is collected or failed.
If the seller has responded with a resolution, the serviceability team will update the parent ticket (Warranty Service) by applying a macro named “Warranty item ready for collection from seller/sc” and update the parent ticket with the same comments that the seller has responded on Warranty Seller ticket.
This macro will add a tag named ‘item_ready_for_collection_seller/sc’
And this will auto change the Zendesk Claim Status to “In transit from seller/sc to AFS>>B2B shipment pickup”
