Use the Nexpart Connect button for online parts ordering and estimating from any local vendor using the Nexpart catalog engine.
If supported, labor guide times are also included for an additional monthly charge of between $0 and $25, paid directly to your vendor.
The vendor link screen appears.
Here you manage login parameters for each Nexpart enabled local parts vendor, and also make your connection (1) .
The password provided by your vendor is required, but only once each time you restart AllsystemsMax.
After the connection is made, you will see something like the screen shown below.
Note that the VIN you already entered in AllsystemsMax is transferred automatically(1).
The quickest way to locate parts in the catalog is to use the Part Search box (2).
Whether or not you actually purchase them, all parts added to the cart (3), are inserted into your AllsystemsMax repair order when you close the Nexpart catalog window, using the red X in the upper righthand corner.
Labor times, when available, are selected by selecting the Labor tab instead of the Parts tab, or links first selecting a part and then clicking the direct link to labor related to that part. Select as many labor items as you require and place them in the cart. They will be inserted into your AllsystemsMax repair order when you close the Nexpart window.
NOTE #1: If you place your order, AllsystemsMax does NOT confirm the purchase until it is actually received and you update the reference number manually, the same way you confirm receipt of an order placed by phone after your parts arrive.
NOTE #2: Some items like dome light bulbs can be purchased as a single package which contains more than quantity 1. Regardless, the quantity inserted into the open R.O. will always default to 1. For package purchases, the unit price will always be used (that is, package cost divided by package quantity). When the package is received, you must account for the remaining quantity not placed on the RO by creating a stock purchase order for them and then posting the receipt of that purchase order so that the computer has the correct stock onhand quantity.
NOTE #3: If you order two or more of an item for immediate use, simply change the billed quantity from 1 to whatever quantity you purchased and are selling on the repair order.
