Special tools database
All
Situation:
Over the years, the stock of special tools has assumed a scope which now requires a
modern data administration system. For this reason, we have answered the numerous
requests by developing a special tools database.
The complete special tools database comprises four diskettes:
- Diskettes 1 to 3: application program "Spectool"
- Diskette 4: current special tools database "Car tools"
The database will allow us to answer questions from the dealer organisation about any
special tool quickly, precisely and unbureaucratically.
As the special tools supplier (Cartool) also has access to the same program, any queries
can be dealt with directly. This should largely avoid misunderstandings and greatly improve
customer service.
The application program also allows scopes of tools to be compiled, which will vastly
simplify the task of workshop equipment planning. Either the complete scope of special
tools or a minimum scope recommended by BMW can be used as the basis for a desired
compilation. Both scopes can limited to refer to certain model series, versions, engines or
transmissions.
The scopes of tools compiled in groups can be printed out in the form of a list of tools,
stored by name or processed further at a later point in time.
