Warning messages are obtained usually as a result of the user not entering the data correctly for a given situation and it is not the fault of the Sigma Magic software program. In these cases, the user has to correct the issue reported and the warning message should get resolved by itself. No intervention from the company is required. An error message may require a change in the software program and hence should always be reported to the company.
