New catalogue update announced

Autocat+ release v6.0 improves lookup speed and accuracy

Printable version 23 April 2010

MAM Software Ltd. has announced the availability of Autocat+ v6.0, the next major release of its popular electronic all-makes parts catalogue. This major release introduces over 30 enhancements to improve lookup speed and accuracy.

In this latest version of Autocat+, users can quickly and easily access previous searches to speed up repeat lookups. As well as remembering which product groups were searched for a given registration number, Autocat+ v6.0 also records the actual part numbers that were transferred to point-of-sale.

The new image comparison feature allows images to be compared side-by-side, together with the relevant product information. Designed to help improve first-time-fit, it enables products to be visually identified and contrasting supplier information fields to be examined. Product images can also be easily e-mailed to customers for clarification.

A new 'show distinct' option helps users capitalise on the additional information provided by suppliers. It further enhances the search by highlighting lines that match the selected additional data. A 'progressive' search option enables multiple fields to be searched, for example when using a specific engine code.

Other improvements include priority ranking for level-one suppliers, wildcard cross-reference searches, section update reports and buyers guide enhancements. For a complete list of developments in Autocat+ v6.0, please download the release documentation by clicking on the button below.

This latest release is available free-of-charge to existing Autocat+ users and will be automatically downloaded by the application.  To date, the Autocat+ is used at over 1000 locations by over 8,000 users, the vast majority of which benefit from having full integration with their Autopart (v17 and v20) management software. Autocat+ can be integrated with other automotive management solutions and is also available as a stand-alone solution.
