TradeOn for Auto Parts & Components
Auto components trade on huge, precise catalogs and fast reorder cycles. TON keeps part numbers, pricing and orders exact, with GRN-backed delivery and credit control, from OEM/importer to distributor to garage-facing retailer.
The operating problems in this sector
- Very large catalogs where the wrong part number is a costly error.
- Fast reorders with mixed availability and partial fulfilment.
- Warranty and wrong-part returns needing precise documentation.
- Credit spread across many small workshop accounts.
How TradeOn addresses them
- Precise catalog ordering: Buyers order against your exact SKUs and part numbers with images; you control visibility and pricing per relationship.
- Partial fulfilment: Accept what's in stock, backorder the rest, and track each line to delivery, with no ambiguity on what shipped.
- Returns handled cleanly: Wrong-part and warranty returns become GRN discrepancies and credit notes against the exact line.
- Credit across many accounts: Each workshop or retailer carries its own credit terms, with automatic holds when limits are breached.
- Inventory & COGS: TON Books keeps perpetual inventory and posts COGS on every sale, so margins are always visible.
Who it is for
Manufacturer, Importer, Distributor, Dealer, Retailer.
