Company/Dealer Code Mapping

This option sets up the required dealer codes for the main dealer site and also sub-dealers. As you create records, the system automatically creates the default parameters record for the dealer codes and companies. The dealer code mapping file is used to map dealer codes to the appropriate Point-of-Sale company, and franchise - in this case, General Motors. You already have a GM dealer code. This may consist of one code for a group, or a separate code for each company. The dealer mapping file requires a record for each company even if they share the same code.
