Covered deliverable
Confirm that the affected function is part of the accepted scope and was released or handed over as described.
Plain-language warranty guide
Any project warranty, its coverage period, start point and available remedy are determined by the applicable written agreement and governing law. This page explains the assessment path but does not create or extend a warranty. Nothing here excludes, restricts or replaces rights and remedies that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
Confirm that the affected function is part of the accepted scope and was released or handed over as described.
Locate the proposal, scope, acceptance record, change approvals and any support or warranty schedule. Those documents identify the delivered behaviour, responsibilities, dependencies and relevant period, if one applies.
Confirm that the affected function is part of the accepted scope and was released or handed over as described.
Use the start point and duration stated in the written agreement. No generic period is promised on this page.
Review accepted limitations, later modifications and approved changes that may affect expected behaviour.
Mandatory statutory rights continue to apply according to the relevant law, regardless of this explanatory guide.
The delivered function does not operate in a material respect as specified and accepted, within the applicable environment and responsibilities.
The function operates as agreed, but a new option, workflow, design, integration or broader behaviour is now desired.
Words, images, products, users, settings or business rules need updating after the accepted release.
A browser, device, API, hosting platform, supplier, policy or connected system has changed or become unavailable.
The reported result depends on permissions, credentials, unsupported use, supplied data or a step outside the agreed workflow.
Identify the agreement, deliverable and affected production system.
List the authorised steps, inputs and role that lead to the issue without including secrets.
State when the issue began, whether it is consistent and what changed nearby in time.
Provide exact messages, screenshots or logs only through an approved route and remove unnecessary personal or confidential information.
Identify relevant browser, device, account role, integration or third-party status where known.
The request should receive a reference through the functioning support channel.
The report is compared with the scope, acceptance, applicable period, responsibilities and subsequent changes.
Available evidence and authorised access are used to determine whether the behaviour can be confirmed.
The outcome may be a covered defect, change request, content/configuration item, external dependency, access issue or unresolved investigation.
Any remedy, workaround, further investigation, external referral or separately scoped work is communicated under the applicable agreement and law.
The applicable agreement determines exclusions. Relevant considerations can include unauthorised changes, unsupported environments, misuse, client-supplied content or data, external services, expired licences, compromised credentials, hardware, connectivity and failures outside GA Applications' control. These factors do not override non-excludable legal rights.
External supplier terms, availability and product changes may affect diagnosis and remedy.
Assessment considers the supported environments identified by the project and material platform changes since acceptance.
Changes by another party may need to be isolated before responsibility for the reported behaviour can be determined.
Security updates, account management, backups, monitoring, content administration and recovery are ongoing responsibilities that exist only within the scope allocated to each party. A warranty does not imply uninterrupted service, continuous monitoring or recovery of data where those services were not agreed.
Keep authorised users and credentials current and report suspected compromise through the designated route.
Confirm who operates, verifies and retains backups for each relevant system.
Know which domains, hosting, APIs, subscriptions, devices or licences are required for operation.
An issue outside an applicable warranty period may be handled through an active support arrangement, a scoped repair, a maintenance review or a wider improvement project. Assessment comes before commitment so the cause, risk and responsibility can be understood.
Use for an issue under an active care or support arrangement.
Use where investigation or remedial work needs a separate commercial authorisation.
Use where the affected system or dependency should be redesigned rather than repeatedly patched.
Each route answers a different operating question while retaining the same standards for evidence, responsibility and a usable next step.

The issue can then be classified against the accepted scope, applicable responsibilities and law before a remedy or next step is proposed.
