Ask Proto about a real case

Ask Proto to prepare automotive part requests and show reviewers the linked evidence.

It can

  • Inventory Coordinator: Prepare a request for a named SKU, quantity, location and required date; show what evidence is needed before review.
  • Inventory Reviewer: Summarize the current request revision, attachments and fitment check before a decision.
  • Auditor: Follow a request through decisions, reservations, posted movements and operation receipts.
  • App Administrator: List active locations and team membership in the intended organization.

Stays with a person

  • A person must make the independent review decision.
  • A stock effect must be checked against current revision, quantity and location, and an uncertain receipt needs reconciliation before another action.
  • Give the assistant an exact request number when asking about a case.

Implementation

Roll out one team at a time

Start with one team and one process, then add the rest once the basics are running.

  1. Set ownership

    Confirm organizations, active locations and team members, then assign coordinator, reviewer, auditor and administrator access.

  2. Load part identity

    Bring in SKUs, base units, lot policy and lot release evidence. Check that each item belongs to the intended organization.

  3. Define the request

    Agree how the team records receipt, move, reserve and issue cases, including required date, location and counterparty.

  4. Rehearse review

    Prepare a request, submit its revision and record an independent decision with a reason. Rehearse a returned case too.

  5. Rehearse effects

    Follow an approved case through a reservation or posted movement, then inspect its operation receipt and reversal route.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Scope, rollout and pricing for Automotive Parts SCM.

All questions
How do I get started?

Click Get started, then use Proto to configure SCM for Automotive Parts for your business. Begin with one organization, an active location, a representative SKU and a reviewed request.

Who prepares a stock request?

Inventory Coordinator records the owner, item, quantity, location and required date, then submits the request for independent review.

Who decides on a request?

Inventory Reviewer records a decision and reason against a particular request revision. A changed request needs its current revision considered.

How is vehicle fitment checked?

A fitment check records vehicle model, model year and OEM reference under the request. Inventory Reviewer decides on the check revision separately from the parent stock request.

How do lots affect the work?

Each lot has a release state and expiry date. The team checks that evidence before selecting a lot for reservation or movement.

What is a reservation?

A reservation claims quantity for a specific request, item and location, with a lot when the case requires one.

Where can I see a stock change?

A posted stock movement carries signed quantity and links to its request, item and location. A correction adds a movement linked to the original.

What happens after an uncertain operation?

Inventory Reviewer compares the operation receipt's expected revision and effect references with the recorded effects, then resolves or investigates the outcome.

Can an administrator approve a request?

Membership administration and stock review are separate responsibilities. The independent reviewer makes the decision on the request revision.
