AutoBase Dealer Services Website - DealerBase

For the past 12 months we have been working hard on a multitude of enhancements and upgrades to our systems. Last year we introduced you to our new dealer services website, DealerBase. DealerBase is available to ALL AutoBase customers at no charge and there are a host of great tools and features here for AutoBase customers to utilise. These include:

Edit Your Stock
About half of our customers use DealerBase to load and edit their stock - now users of stock systems can edit vehicles through DealerBase. There is a warning at the top that alerts you to the fact that the vehicle may be overwritten next time we get your next data file upload. This allows you to select options you can’t load through your data file such as Special, Apply Standard Text etc.

Advertising Display List
We have added a View menu in the Advertising Display List screen, which allows you to view your listing as they are displayed on AutoBase, Trade Me Motors, and on your own website if it is hosted by us.

 

 

Current Vehicle Limit

See your current Vehicle Limit in the Advertising Display List section. You can increase your Vehicle limit at any time, just email your Account Manager Davern or Anneka

 

Your Vehicle List
The My Settings page (found under the My Company menu) can be used to set some default values that are used through DealerBase. This includes what order the vehicle lists are shown in by default i.e. ordered by stock number ascending/descending or make model etc.

Filter Vehicle Lists
Filter vehicles by Current and Deleted Stock, Advertising Display List, Trade Me Features Listings, Trade Me Showroom List etc. Filter vehicles by Manufacturer in Current and Deleted Stock, Trade Me Showroom, Advertising Display List and Featured Listings sections and also by vehicles showing or not showing on AutoBase / Trade Me in the Advertising Display List section.

Customise your Stock List

You can now create and customise lists of your Current and Deleted Stock by filtering certain fields e.g. New/Used. To use this new feature go to Manage Stock, Lists, Current Stock. By clicking on Filter Current Stock List and a form will pop up asking you which fields you wish to filter,e.g. In Transit, or Used Stock Only. You can then save that Stock List. Your saved Custom Stock List will appear under the Lists menu in the Manage Stock section.
