Distribution Software for Auto Parts & Spares

Fifty thousand part numbers, urgent breakdown orders, and a counter that answers "hai kya?" three hundred times a day. Trade Node makes the catalog searchable, availability instant, and urgent orders traceable — for OEM, OES, and aftermarket lines alike.

• Part-number search
• Live availability
• Urgent order handling

The problems this trade lives with

• The catalog lives in two heads: Part numbers, supersessions, and cross-references across brands sit in the memory of your two best counter men. When they are busy, the counter slows; if they leave, it stops.
• "Urgent" is the only speed: A vehicle off road means a mechanic calling every distributor in town. Whoever confirms availability first wins the order — checking a register loses it.
• Warranty and returns without a trail: Defective claims and wrong-part returns need the original invoice, part, and date. Paper trails make every claim a negotiation.
• Retailer credit across the district: Dozens of retailers and garages on running credit, each with small balances that quietly grow — visible only when they have become a problem.

How Trade Node runs it

• Every part number, findable by anyone: Search by part number, name, application, or brand — with supersessions linked. New staff answer availability queries as fast as your veterans.
• Availability answered while the phone is still up: Live stock across godowns means "hai" or "nahi hai" is instant and reliable — and the retailer's portal answers it without the call entirely.
• Urgent orders with a fast lane: Priority orders move straight to picking and same-day dispatch with status visible to the buyer — VOR urgency handled by process, not by shouting.
• Returns tied to their invoices: Every sale is traceable, so warranty claims and returns link to the original invoice and part instantly — claims become lookups instead of arguments.
• Credit control across every counter account: Live balances and limits on every retailer and garage account, enforced at billing — small balances stay small.

Why one platform

• Depth without dependence: The catalog knowledge that made your business moves from irreplaceable heads into a searchable system every staff member can use.
• Speed where speed wins orders: In spares, availability answered in seconds is the sale. Trade Node is built around that moment — search, confirm, book, dispatch.
• The full counter-to-collection flow: Catalog, orders, dispatch, billing, returns, and credit in one system — the whole spares operation, not just a billing screen.
