- Multi-Screen/Windows Networks: There are several ways to expand your Fast Parts system. The most popular method is to integrate Fast Parts in your Windows network. We can either connect to your existing network, or help you get a network up and running. You can also connect to the serial ports to expand your system.
- Flip Screens: Flip screens let you do two things without changing screens. If you are inventorying a vehicle and a customer has a question, you can flip to look up a part and then flip back to your place in the inventory when you are finished with the customer. Using flip screens expands what you can do without adding extra screens (a real help if you have limited space).
- Tag Printer/Remote Printer: The standard Fast Parts system has two printers. One of the printers is for invoices and the other handles all of your white paper printing such as inventory notes, pull slips, reports and inventory sheets. By adding a remote printer, you can print reports in another office and not interfere with someone printing an inventory sheet. A tag printer can also be added to allow you to mark your loose parts so those parts may be easily identified.
- Laptops: The laptop feature will allow you to inventory out in the warehouse or yard without printing the inventory sheet. You can walk out to the vehicle and inventory it with the laptop, walk inside and merge the data into the system. You can also take your worksheets home or to another location, and enter them into your laptop without interruptions. When you get back to the office, you can merge the data.
- Remote/Multiple Locations: Fast Parts is also flexible enough for you to maintain multiple locations, from store fronts that connect to the main computer back at the facility to multi-computer systems that connect to each other through the Internet. We can help you custom-design a system that is right for you and your business.
- Fast Parts includes many reports to aid in managing your business.
- VIN Decoding is just one of the standard features on our system. By decoding a vehicle, you can find the exact year, engine size, and other pertinent information. All you need is the Vehicle Identification Number to access the information.
- The Fast Parts inventory system offers you many choices that can help you buy and sell parts all over the country. Using one or more of these options, your parts can be seen by people from Maine to California and from Michigan to Texas. You, too, can select from the huge inventory of parts around the country so that when your customers want a part, they can buy it through you.
- Our FastNnet option is exclusive to Fast Parts customers. For a nominal fee, it provides access to inventories contributed by hundreds of Fast Parts users nationwide.
- Car-Part.com lets Fast Parts customers easily and automatically sell parts on the Internet. This widens your customer base and makes your parts visible to people you would not reach otherwise. Trading Partners™ can be included in this service (giving you access to over 3,300 recyclers), as can other specialized tools to help you grow your business.
- Other networks, such as Hotlines and EDEN® are available to give nationwide access to parts. As others services develop, Fast Parts will be among the first to make those available.
- With the Fast Parts system, you receive the interchange that is known as the industry standard. This enables you to communicate with recyclers that use other inventory systems. The interchange is updated several times a year to ensure that you have the most up-to-date information.
- This interchange is the same one used by Car-Part.com and other networks. This makes it simple and easy to get your parts on these networks.
- The Fast Parts system with automatic accounts receivable is simple to use. The system automatically adds the transaction to the appropriate account, making it simple to track your sales. There is no need to go in after work and post sales to the proper account.
- The end-of-the-month statements are just as easy. Answer a couple of questions and the computer does the work for you. Once the computer finishes printing the statements, place the statements in a windowed envelope and mail.
- There are many places in this system that allow you to add accounts, as well as edit, credit, and debit with ease.
- The Fast Parts system allows you to enter your inventory in many ways. You can choose to enter complete vehicles first or, loose parts that are stored in your warehouse.
- For a complete car inventory, you can print a worksheet that is designed for that car and has all of the options printed on the sheet.
- Loose part inventory is very simple. Place a tag on the loose part and then record that tag number in the computer. You can use hand written tags or computer generated tags to mark the part. Computer tags are just one of many options available with the system.
- At Fast Parts we believe in giving you many options when it comes to communications. You may choose to have your parts on one of the many Internet sites, such as Car-Part.com.
- Also, we will work with you to get your parts on any Internet site that you choose. Remember, these are your parts and you can show them to whomever you please. At Fast Parts, we let the customer choose when and where to show their parts.
- The Fast Parts quote feature lets you keep up with quotes you’ve made on parts. With just a few keystrokes you can save any quote you make so that later, you won’t have to depend on your memory (or that of another counter person). This way, when a customer comes in to pick up the part, you can be confident of the price you gave.
- You can even record the quote when the part is not from your facility, including what you were going to pay for the part and if shipping was included in the price. This feature alone will help you keep better customer relations and help you run your business much smoother.
