Excluding Add-Ons from Sales Price Calculation

If you're looking to configure your system to exclude add-ons when pulling the sales price from the Dealer Management System (DMS) into the Retail Operating System (ROS), this guide will help you understand how to achieve that.

Understanding DMS and ROS Integration

The integration between your DMS and ROS is crucial for accurate pricing. By default, these systems may include various add-ons in their calculations. However, with a few adjustments, you can ensure that only the base vehicle price is considered.

Steps to Exclude Add-Ons

To successfully exclude add-ons from the sales price calculation, follow these general steps:

1. Access Settings: Log into your DMS and navigate to the settings or configuration section where integrations are managed.
2. Edit Parameters: Look for parameters related to pricing or sales data transfer. You may find options specifically mentioning inclusion/exclusion of add-ons.
3. Select Base Vehicle Price Only: Adjust these settings so that only the base vehicle price is included in any data pulled by ROS.
4. Save Changes: After making adjustments, ensure you save all changes before exiting the settings menu.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

If you encounter issues during this process, consider these troubleshooting tips:

• No Option Available?: If there’s no clear option for excluding add-ons in your DMS settings, consult your user manual or online resources specific to your software version.
• Error Messages:: Pay attention to any error messages during integration attempts; they can provide clues on what might be misconfigured.
• User Permissions: Ensure that you have adequate permissions within both systems as some configurations may require administrative access.
