Car-Part.com is a company that runs a web site which indexes car parts for car yards across the US.

Software

Car-Part.com distributes software that allows ITrack users to export parts from ITrack to Car-Part.com, as well as to search the Car-Part.com database from ITrack. So there are 2 main parts to Car-Parts:

  1. Search - car-part
  2. Upload - pkzip
Tip
The Car-Part applications are in the 'ITrack - Tech Support - 3rd Party Software' directory on File.

You will also need the company's car-part login info, which you can get one of the following ways:

  • In Kung Fu
  • Asking fellow ISoft Employee to check their inbox for login info
  • Emailing a car-part representative (Cristi at car-part dot com)

Searching

(Car-part calls this "fkey" to confuse you.)

Place all of the car-part files in the %systemdrive%\car-part\ directory.

Run the Config.exe application:

  • In the drop down menu select ISoft
  • Enter the Username, Password, and Site information that has been provided for you.
  • If no site has been provided then try using isoft.car-part.com
  • Save the Settings

When a user clicks the car-part button on the search screen of ITrack, it launches this app. ITrack passes in the search criteria and the car-part app launches the search in their web browser.

Tip
If the customer is using Vista, and the Car-Parts Search is having problems loading - use Firefox instead.

Uploading

The upload application needs to be in the %systemdrive%\pkzip\ directory.

  1. Run config.exe
  2. Run the windows update reg fix

Site name should be isoft.car-part.com
