Stop a dealer order against inventory that isn't actually there

A dealer places an order by phone or email against inventory numbers that are already out of date by the time the order is entered, so an order gets confirmed for stock that isn't actually available. Build a portal where every order checks against live inventory.

A phone order can't see today's stock count

When a dealer calls in an order, whoever takes the call is working from whatever inventory number they last saw, not the actual count at that moment. The dealer finds out about a shortfall only after the order's already been confirmed.

Let dealers place orders directly against live inventory, apply their tier's pricing automatically, and submit warranty claims through the same portal.

From order to claim
  1. 1. Dealer places an order against live inventory
  2. 2. Tier-based pricing is applied automatically
  3. 3. Order is confirmed and fulfillment status is tracked
  4. 4. Warranty claims are submitted against delivered products
  5. 5. Claim status is tracked to resolution

  • A dealer must only see their own orders and claims, not other dealers' data.
