As vehicles are imported from the subsystems, the import program tries to create a link from descriptive text supplied by subsystem to a Autoline Franchise code. This table, built dynamically by the system, is used to do this. If a franchise code is not specified in this table, the user has to enter it through the other details tab within the Estimate maintenance. Review this table occasionally and enter franchise letters where possible to save time during the Estimate maintenance stage.
