Enter a new option code in the Option code field.
Complete the relevant information on the General tab.
It is recommended that the Option code is in UPPER CASE but alpha or numeric characters
can be used.
The Default VAT code is usually C Vehicle Outputs but check with the Dealer Accountant if
unsure.
The Option group can be used to group options together in the Showroom module. Thus if a
lot of types of warranties are available on a particular variant they can be grouped so that only
one line is taken up by all the warranty options but the full list can be seen by expanding the
line (by clicking on the plus sign).
In this example this option has not been put in a group of options, this is not the same grouping
as that described in the paragraph above – refer to process 03.002.01 – Creating Generic
Option Categories for further information on these groups.
The Analysis Code is very important as this will ultimately determine the accounts postings for
the cost and income of the option when it is selected on a vehicle record, refer to process
03.005.09 - Vehicle Stock Books – The Analysis Codes for further information.
Refer to the Autoline help files
