Before you load a menu in Point-of-Sale, you must identify which part numbers/RTS codes your dealership uses for fluids. In order to do this you must create the fluid codes that exist on the GME database, and then map them to the part number/RTS code that you use on the Autoline system.
What do you want to do?
The Fluid mapping form is displayed when you select the Amend or Create option from the shortcut menu on the Fluid mapping tab of the Vauxhall GME Menu Pricing Setup form. Within this form, you must identify the part number or RTS code that your dealership uses for the fluid.
Part no/RTS code: Enter the part number or Repair Time Schedule (RTS) code used by the dealership, if known. (RTS codes are used in some cases due to the variety of part numbers that may fall into a particular category. For example, OIL.) If unknown, click the appropriate radio button to search the stock file, price file or RTS code file.
Note: If you use a part number, you must also specify the Fluid issued in quantity. If you use an RTS code, you must enter the Retail and Cost price.
Fluid issued in: If you enter a part number, you must also specify the Unit of Issue (UOI). For example, if you sell oil in 10ths of a litre, the factor is 0.10. If you sell it in ½ litres, the factor is 0.50. Select the required factor from the drop-down menu. Factor numbers entered here are not overwritten when a new release of data is uploaded and converted on the Autoline system.
Note: It is not possible to create additional factor values. Fluids can only be issued in one of the multiples listed on the drop down menu.
Retail: If you have used an RTS code, you must also enter the retail price.
Cost: If you have used an RTS code, you must also enter the cost price.
Note: It is important that you enter the cost price in order for the software to calculate the profit correctly.
To retrieve the correct part number or RTS code, select one of the following radio buttons:
Stock file: Searches the stock file.
Price file: Searches the price file.
RTS code: Searches the standard RTS code file.
