🔩 Automotive ERP: Spare parts

The right part, on the right shelf, before the customer asks

Find parts by vehicle, follow every supersession, stock by value and demand pattern, replenish from warehouse to depot to dealer, rush vehicle-off-road orders from the nearest stock and clear dead stock before it piles up.

Supersession

Old part numbers always lead to the current one

An oil filter replaced twice. Orders for any number roll up to the latest, and interchangeable older stock is sold first so nothing is left behind. Demo data.

  1. OF-0412Original filterFrom 2019, 18 in stock
  2. OF-0412ARevised sealFrom 2021, 64 in stock
  3. OF-0412BNew supplier, same fitFrom 2024, 230 in stock

A dealer orders OF-0412. The system offers the 18 original filters first, then 64 of OF-0412A, then the new OF-0412B. Demand history from all three feeds one forecast.

ABC/XYZ

Stock each part by its value and how steady its demand is

A parts catalogue of 8,455 lines, sorted by sales value (A, B, C) and demand pattern (X steady, Y variable, Z erratic). Pick a cell to see its stocking policy. Demo data.

Reorder points

Order before you run out, not after

Set a part's daily demand and supplier lead time. The chart shows stock falling, the reorder point, and when the next delivery lands. Safety stock covers the swings.

Find the nearest stock for a vehicle off the road

A customer's vehicle is waiting at a dealer that's out of stock. Pick the dealer and watch the system search its region, then the warehouse, and route the part. Demo data.

FAQ

Spare parts questions

Answers for parts heads, dealers and distributors.

What is automotive spare parts management software?

It runs the parts business from catalogue to customer: which part fits which vehicle, which part numbers replace older ones, how much to stock where, how warehouses, depots and dealers are replenished, and how urgent orders and slow stock are handled.

How does the fitment catalogue work?

Each part is linked to the makes, models, variants and years it fits, often with exploded diagrams. Counter staff search by vehicle or VIN and get the right part number, its price and where it's in stock.

What is part supersession?

When a part is replaced by a newer number, demand and orders move to the new part, while stock of the old one is still sold first if it's interchangeable. The chain is kept so old numbers always lead to the current one.

What is ABC/XYZ classification?

ABC sorts parts by value of sales, and XYZ by how steady demand is. Together they set where a part is stocked and how it's replenished: a high-value, steady part is treated very differently from a cheap, erratic one.

How are reorder points set?

From average daily demand, lead time and a safety stock based on how much demand and lead time vary. They're recalculated as demand changes, for every part at every location.

What is a VOR order?

A vehicle-off-road order is for a customer whose vehicle can't move until the part arrives. The system searches every location for stock, ships from the nearest and tracks it until fitted.

What GST rate applies to auto parts?

Since 22 September 2025, auto parts carry a uniform 18% GST rate regardless of HSN code. The system applies the rate in force on the invoice date.

Can dealers see stock in the network?

Yes. Dealers see their own stock and, where you allow it, stock at their depot and nearby dealers, so they can promise a date before ordering.

How long does implementation take?

As an estimate, 8 to 12 weeks, depending on the size of the catalogue, how many locations there are and how dealer systems connect.
