Click Get started, then use Proto to configure ERP for Automotive for your business. Identify the people who own production planning, purchasing, quality, finance and specialty review. Begin with a part and vehicle application whose compatibility and production definition can be checked by those owners.

Prepare the first operating cycle

Gather the part number and stocking unit, bill and routing versions, warehouse quantities and lot evidence. Bring the approved customer demand and an incoming component receipt. Industry Specialist prepares the exact make, model and model year fitment evidence; Industry Reviewer checks the compatibility evidence before deciding. Prepare a claim with vehicle VIN, failure date and claim amount, including a reasoned rejection case.

Agree the sale evidence used in claim review and set up payout confirmation as a connection. Assign My Planning Exceptions to the responsible planner and rehearse the independent review decisions. Keep external feeds within the connections the team has explicitly mapped and tested.

Review before release

Rehearse issue from a held lot, completion from an intermediate operation, a repeated shipment and a posting dated in a Locked period. Each must produce the expected refusal or once-only result. Compare the accepted production quantity, movement references and customer invoice balance. Check that the reviewer cannot rewrite the prepared evidence and rehearse the independent purchasing decision with ordinary role accounts before accepting the operating scope.

Use the implementation plan, review access and map the source data.
