The facility has the right to demand Form 483 observations from the FDA inspector. After issuing Form 483 to the facility FDA gives a timeline to the facility to correct the violated observations in writing, and the facility is bound to close or provide a proper response to the FDA within a timeline.
When the facility not able to provide a response within the timeline or the response provided by the facility is not adequate to close the violated observations then FDA issues a warning letter to the facility.

Where violation observed by the inspector is noteworthy but not necessary to address through Form 483. Such observations, inspector will issue the untitled letter.
" Under other circumstances, where violations FDA observed are noteworthy, but there is less clear authority for the FDA to regulate a specific aspect of a firm’s processes, FDA may issue an Untitled Letter."
