Uploading a Data File via ISDN

Note: Renault price file updates are now performed via the Automatic price file update option.

If you receive price file, supersession or labour code data from the Data & Software Integration (DASI) department at ADP Dealer Services UK Ltd via Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN), you normally receive an E-Mail advising that the data has been sent. When you receive this notification, you must update the Autoline system.

The notification contains instructions on how to perform the update. For Renault, source data is issued by DASI in a format recognised by the Autoline system, and is normally uploaded via ISDN. If you are a Renault Trade Partner, you are also required to take additional steps to ensure that the price file is re-priced before the stock file is updated from the price file.

There are two ways of uploading a data file via ISDN. You can upload price or supersession files via the Load new pricefile (ISDN) option on the MASTER PARTS PRICE FILE MENU. Alternatively, you can upload price, supersession or labour code files via the Load new files (ISDN) option on the General utilities > System maintenance menu.

Note: If your manufacturer does not supply a supersession file, you can build a supersession chain if superseding part numbers are stored on your price file.

To upload a new price or supersession file via ISDN (Option 1):

  1. From the RENAULT OPERATIONS menu, select the Parts price file menu option.

    The MASTER PARTS PRICE FILE MENU is displayed.

    Note: If the upload fails, speak to your Systems Administrator in the first instance.

  5. Click Exit.

    You are returned to the MASTER PARTS PRICE FILE MENU.

  6. If you are a Renault Trade Partner, you must now re-price the price file. If you are not a Renault Trade Partner, you can proceed to the next step.

  7. If you uploaded a price file, you must now update the stock file with these changes. Do this for all stock companies used by your franchise.

  8. To make the changes effective on your system, it is recommended that all users log out and then log back in.
