Question
I Cannot See A New Vehicle To Put On A Supplier Order?
Answer
If you cannot see a vehicle to put on supplier order, you may need to set it up in the price list, or it may just need a slight tweak to get it to show.
It is crucial for any vehicle you want to create a supplier order for it to have at least one colour and one option ticked in the price list against that specification. For guidance on how to do this see the last section of this article.
