Automotive context
Why Sales Management works differently in Automotive
In Automotive, automotive value chain center on sector-specific concepts such as OEM supply discipline, part number, PPAP/quality document. In automotive, OEM supply discipline, on-time delivery and full traceability require functions to keep each part’s history and quality record complete.
Qera ERP's Sales Management module is set up around the reality of automotive: Manages OEM and spare-part orders with price and delivery terms from a single screen.
- When OEM customers' on-time-delivery and quality expectations are strict, planning errors create contract risk.
- When spare-part diversity (reference/OE code, aftermarket) can't be managed, stock and sales tracking gets tangled.
- Without part and serial/lot traceability, you can't find the root cause in a quality issue or recall.
