SCM for Automotive Parts organizes automotive part stock work around a request owned by a named team member. The Inventory Coordinator identifies the part, location, counterparty, quantity and required date.

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.
Inventory Coordinator records the owner, item, quantity, location and required date, then submits the request for independent review.
Inventory Reviewer records a decision and reason against a particular request revision. A changed request needs its current revision considered.
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.
Each lot has a release state and expiry date. The team checks that evidence before selecting a lot for reservation or movement.
A reservation claims quantity for a specific request, item and location, with a lot when the case requires one.
A posted stock movement carries signed quantity and links to its request, item and location. A correction adds a movement linked to the original.
Inventory Reviewer compares the operation receipt's expected revision and effect references with the recorded effects, then resolves or investigates the outcome.
Membership administration and stock review are separate responsibilities. The independent reviewer makes the decision on the request revision.
Start free, then use Proto to change fields, steps and approvals before your team goes live.
