More Features in Photomate 3.1
Scan VIN to Add an Image, or to Move Parts
|
Photomate is our mobile app for Checkmate users. It helps you add photos to parts, inventory parts, move parts, and audit locations. Photomate version 3.1 was recently released to the app store.
In this issue of the Car-Part Scoop, we'll show you two new VIN-based features that are in this version: scan the VIN to add parts for imaging, and scan the VIN to move part locations.
|
Use VIN with Add an Image
It's easy to use the VIN to add a part to Photomate, so photos can be taken of the part. Here's how:
- On the Add an Image screen, tap Scan VIN.
- Scan the VIN (or type the last 6 characters of the VIN).
- Choose the Part Type (and the Side, if applicable).
- Tap Retrieve Part to find the part in your inventory and assign it to Photomate.
|
When you're relocating parts, you can now look up the part by the VIN.
-
On the Move a Part screen, tap the BY VIN tab.
-
Scan the VIN (or type the last 6 characters).
-
Choose the Part Type.
-
Continue the relocation process like normal to move the part.

Car-Part Interchange Plus (CPI+) is an interchange enhancement option. CPI+ offers new and enhanced interchange above and beyond the standard industry interchange.
As of Car-Part Interchange version 84.2, CPI+ includes new and enhanced interchange for over 100 parts. This includes engine parts, interior parts, and body parts. It also includes new interchange coverage for Mitsubishi (2009 and up) and Mazda (2015 and up). The part types we added were selected in large part based on the search data from Car-Part.com and Integrated Car Part Pro (iPro) users.
CPI+ is available to Checkmate®, Pinnacle®, and Powerlink® users. In this webinar, we'll focus on Checkmate users. We'll talk about:
- how CPI+ improves accuracy while you buy, inventory, and sell parts.
- how it improves searches in Car-Part.com marketplaces (including Trading Partners), and
- how it affects the search process.
This webinar will run approximately 1 hour.
