Multi-Dealership Network

Manage unlimited dealership locations from a single platform. Each location operates independently while sharing unified infrastructure, stock, and customer data.

How Multi-Dealership Networks Work

A unified platform that gives each location independence while sharing critical resources and data.

Unlimited Locations

Add as many dealership locations as you need. Each location has its own branch code, configuration, branding, and operational settings.

Unified Database

Customers, suppliers, and parts catalog are shared across all locations. Stock, jobs, and invoices are location-specific but accessible network-wide.

Inter-Company Transfers

Transfer vehicles and parts between locations seamlessly. Track transfers, manage approvals, and maintain complete transfer history across your network.

What's Shared vs. Location-Specific

Location-Specific Data

  • Stock & Vehicles - Physical inventory per location
  • Jobs & WIPs - Work in progress and service jobs
  • Invoices & Accounts - Financial records per location

How It Works: 8-Step Workflow

From setup to daily operations, here's how multi-dealership networks operate.

1

Location Setup

Create a new location with a unique branch code (e.g., 100 = Tonbridge, 110 = Maidstone). Configure location name, address, contact details, and initial settings.

2

Branding Configuration

Set up location-specific branding including manufacturer styling, logos, colour schemes, and visual identity. Each location can have its own unique appearance.

3

User Assignment

Assign users to specific locations or grant network-wide access. Configure role-based permissions to control what each user can access and modify.

4

Stock Management

Add vehicles and parts to each location's inventory. Stock is location-specific but can be searched and transferred across the network. Customers can browse all locations.

5

Daily Operations

Each location operates independently with its own jobs, invoices, and accounts. Technicians are assigned to locations. All operations are tracked with location-specific data.

6

Inter-Company Transfers

Transfer vehicles and parts between locations as needed. Create transfer requests, manage approvals, and track transfer history. Maintain accurate inventory across the network.

7

Unified Customer Access

Customers can browse stock from all locations through any location's website or showroom system. Search filters allow customers to find vehicles across the entire network.

8

Network Reporting

Generate comprehensive reports across all locations or filter by specific locations. Compare performance, track KPIs, and analyse network-wide trends for strategic decision-making.
