This article will show a user how they can manually amend a Part Record
There are several reasons why a dealership may wish to manually amend a Part record
There may be a change in MSRP / Cost Price / Package / Auto Reorder / Retail Price etc
How to manually amend a Part Record
- Navigate to the relevant Part record screen > click

- This will open up the Edit Merchandise window:

- Just scroll down to the field that you wish to change.
Example One
As we wish to change the MSRP from zero to $15.00, we have scrolled to the Per Item Pricing section

Example Two
We want to introduce Auto Reordering to this Part Record
Scroll down to the section you want to change ie Auto-Reorder and add your MIN quantity value and MAX quantity value
This would mean that when the Available Stock gets down to the Minimum Qty then it will automatically add it as required for stock to the next Vendor Order you place for this Part Record's Vendor up to the value of the Maximum Qty
Example Three
We want to change this Part to now be a packaged Part
Scroll down to the section you want to change ie Packaged Part
Check the radio box to indicate that it is now a packaged part and it will populate additional fields for you to complete.
Example Four
Lock down the Part Record for MSRP / Retail / Description so that when importing of a new Price File, it will not override these fields back to what is included on the Price File
This will allow Dealerships that have manually change MSRP / Retail / Description to what they want them to be but then not have the Price File change it back to what the Vendor wants them to be
Dealerships will be able to lock down the pricing on the Part Record on these
On a Part record, if you see the symbol - next to the relevant fields, it means it is unlocked and will be updated when the relevant Vendor price file is imported
On a Part record, if you see the symbol - next to the relevant fields, it means it is locked and will be NOT be updated when the relevant Vendor price file is imported
To lock / unlock - on the EDIT screen, scroll to the relevant field and simply click on the lock icon to change
See example below where it sits next to the Description field
Example Five
You want to add an Environmental Fee or Tire Levy to certain Parts
This means that each time you add this part to a Customer Order, it will automatically charge an Environment Fee or Tire Levy to the Customer Order as well
Set up the fee you want to use - How to Create / Add a New Fee and How to edit an existing Fee or you may want to use an existing fee that you already have in your Blackpurl
Navigate to the relevant part records that you want to add this Environment Fee / Tire Levy to and then click
From the Edit Merchandise screen, scroll down to the Environment Fee field
Type in the amount into the $ field that you want to add as the fee
Then another field will generate for you to select the Environmental Fee Code you want to use
End result will be that next time you add this part record to a Customer Order, it will also add the relevant Environment Fee
- Any changes that you make to Part Records, don't forget to finalise by clicking

Keep in mind that that on the Part Record, it will record who and when the last time the Part Record was modified
