Setting Up Alternate, Reconditioned, and Optional OEM Parts Usage

This feature allows you to set up the defaults for the program to use when processing Alternate parts (e.g., Aftermarket, Optional OEM, and Reconditioned). You may not have access to all of the fields depending on your security level. Options include part selection methods, price selection, and aftermarket selection criteria. If you accessed this screen through the workfile, and not through the profile, you can view the data, but you cannot change it.

 

To set up alternate parts usage

  1. Select the Configuration Dashboard, and then select the Profiles option from the Configuration panel.
  2. Select the profile, and then select Edit from the mini-toolbar.
  3. Select the Alternate Parts link.
  4. Select ARO (Alternate, Reconditioned, and Optional OEM) from the Part Type droplist.
  5. Move through the fields on the screen.
  6. Click Save or Save and Close.
