Parts Audit Trail Enhancement Application

Is your dealership hindered by the 60-day limit on transaction history, forcing you to lose critical audit data on fast-moving parts and complicating essential financial tracking?

The Parts Audit Trail Enhancement application from FDC Solutions is an essential enhancement to the DBS/DBSi Parts Audit Trail screen (DSPPCAUD) that delivers a new look, extended functionality, and customizable history management. This solution allows you to track parts transactions easier and faster, ensuring full accountability and better decision-making.


Why You Need Extended Parts Audit Control

Caterpillar dealers require robust historical data for inventory valuation, dispute resolution, and regulatory compliance. The Parts Audit Trail Enhancement application transforms the default, limited DBS/DBSi view into a powerful, permanent audit tool.

  • Extended Retention & Compliance. We overcome the standard 60-day limit of DBS/DBSi by adding a weekly batch process that collects and retains audit trail history beyond this threshold.

  • Balanced History Management. The extended history collection is coupled with a smart purge process that allows you to determine exactly how much history you want to keep. This space-saving feature helps manage data volume, which can be critical if you face usage charges under hardware hosting agreements.

  • Customizable Cleanup. The accumulated history is run through a customizable cleanup/purge based on rules you define, such as a part's dollar value or the transaction date. Importantly, the purge is only applied to the additional history collected, leaving the 60 days collected by DBS/DBSi untouched.


Key Features for Unprecedented Visibility and Productivity

The The Parts Audit Trail Enhancement application provides the tools your team needs to track every part movement quickly and efficiently.

Enhanced Productivity

Easily toggle between the new, productive custom view and the existing (unchanged) DBS/DBSi view with the F7 key.

Work Order to Work Order Tracking

Track the movement of parts between work orders with the addition of four new transaction codes.

Seamless Batch Integration

The new weekly batch job can be inserted into your batch schedule, collecting normally discarded audit history before it is purged by DBS/DBSi.

Instant Part Status

New fields on the display screen instantly show the current status of the part directly on the audit trail screen. Fields displayed include On-hand, On-order, In-return, Location, Returnable Indicator, and more. This view is customizable to display any parts information needed.

Customized Audit View

The new, customized audit view displays the most recent transactions at the top (in reverse chronological order and with extended history). This eliminates the need to enter a date or scroll through transactions of fast-moving parts.
