WHAT IS A DISCLAIMER


Disclaimer is a collective term for disclaimers/warranty text/authorizations/notifications that the Dealership may need to print on the Customer's documents ie Customer Invoices as a notification to the Customer.


The Disclaimer feature allows the Dealership to create their own Disclaimers and also indicate where that Disclaimer is to appear.


For example:

A dealership may need to disclose to the customer the return policy or disclose to the customer what the warranty terms are for completed service work.
