Using the Change ID PopUp

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

The Change ID PopUp allows you to change the ID of a vehicle. You will mostly use this function to correct vehicle ID information that was entered incorrectly.

Use the following steps to change the vehicle ID:

  1. On the Enter Invoices-Invoicing screen, press [F2] to display the PopUp Menu at the bottom of the screen (see below).

  1. Press H. The system will automatically bring up the following, which prompts you for the ID you want to change to.

  1. Type the new vehicle ID and state or province (if state/prov in ID is enabled) and press [Enter]. The new vehicle ID cannot be blank or the same as an existing vehicle, and it cannot be for a vehicle with an invoice in progress. You will see a specific error if you fall into one of these prohibited scenarios.
  2. At the Remove Prior Service History prompt, you can specify whether you want to delete all prior history. This only applies to vehicles that contain service history.
Note: If you choose to delete all prior history, you also delete the old vehicle ID and VIN number.
  1. At the OK to continue prompt, type Y and press [Enter] to change the vehicle ID and return to processing the customer invoice.
