Where it breaks
The short version.
- Fitment is the front door
- Cross-references are scattered
- Cores and returns
01 / The extra work
What slows your team down when your website and ERP don’t talk.
When your store isn’t wired to your ERP, your staff ends up doing the work by hand.
02
Cross-references are scattered
Interchange numbers and supersessions live in spreadsheets and memory.
03
Cores and returns
Core charges and return rules can turn a clean order into a credit.
02 / What good looks like
What changes when your website runs on your ERP.
Customers get self-service answers, and your team gets hours back every day.

Fitment-first search
Customers start with the vehicle and see only the parts that fit.
02
Cross-reference clarity
Interchange and supersession context is visible in the buying flow.
03
Core and return rules
Core charges and return expectations are clear before checkout.
03 / The ERP handoff
What the ERP already knows.

Bring the hard questions to the first working session.
Year/make/model is only one path; engine and position matter.
The source has to be maintained, not guessed.
A core is part of the price conversation.
Stock by location beats a generic stock count.
