Code designating the current status of the contract

Code specifying the type of product service contract or the basis of the product service claim

When used with a claim for service, PSC02 could specify the contractual basis for the claim. If a single product is going to have several contracts in place at the same time, such as five years for parts and one year for labor or, in a different case, five years or 70,000 miles, the PSC segment will have to be invoked the required number of times. The first and required use of the type of contract code identifies its most general category while the second, optional, use is more specific.
