During the return merchandise authorization (RMA) part of the warranty process, a Teltonika-Networks engineer examines the information provided by a client in an RMA request form in order to determine whether the equipment is eligible repair, replacement or a refund. The RMA request form contains company, addressing and malfunctioning product information and must be filled out by the product's owner and approved by a Teltonika-Networks engineer before returning a product.
