How do I link receipts and warranties to items?

Attach proofs of purchase for easy access

Linking receipts and warranty documents adds legal and financial value to your inventory. Attach scans or PDFs to the corresponding item entry and record key warranty dates.

How to organize attachments:

  • Attach receipt file or photo to the item entry
  • Add warranty provider, registration number, and expiry date in dedicated fields
  • Note return periods and service contract details

Filing tips:

  • Name files consistently (eg, laptop_receipt_2023.pdf)
  • Keep both digital and, if necessary, archived paper copies in a safe place
  • Use OCR-capable tools to make receipt text searchable

Warranty management:

  • Log registration dates and service phone numbers
  • Add reminders for warranty expirations or extended-service renewals

Benefits:

  • Faster insurance claims with proof of purchase
  • Easier returns and repairs with model and purchase info at hand

Consistent attachment and filing practices make claims, repairs, and resale straightforward and reduce stress when you need documentation quickly.
