Stock Search Improvement

- Published: Thursday, 19 April 2012 16:04
The stock search has been improved with the addition to the existing search by word or words from the stock description a full or partial stock code may also be included.

Vehicle Models
- Details
- Published: Wednesday, 18 April 2012 15:02
Finding the correct model to apply to a vehicle has been made easier by implementing an "aggressive" search, and by the addition of a quick reference file to speed searches up.
If the correct model is on your system, all you should need to type in at the "Model" prompt is as much of the code as you can remember, and/or part of the description, and/or the manufacturer, and the system will quickly locate all the models on file matching what you've entered, allowing you to choose the correct code. If only one code matches, that will be chosen automatically, allowing you to get on with your job.
- This update will involve a file conversion, which will run once only: the first time Platinum is used after this update. It may take some time, depending on how heavily the relevant area of the system is used, but will only be necessary the first time you use the software after this update.
