# Parts & Accessories Online Retail

**Search. Browse. Buy.**

Give customers a familiar, low-friction way to find the parts and accessories they need. Customers can search by part number, VIN, product description or brand, browse clear categories, review product detail and availability, then choose to add an in-stock item to their cart or send an enquiry when they need help.

## Manage the retail journey from one administration portal

Autoweb Design’s Parts & Accessories Online Retail platform gives dealerships a connected way to sell parts online and manage the operational work that follows. Customers can search by part number, VIN, product description or brand, browse categories, review product details and availability, then choose to buy immediately or send an enquiry. This journey helps customers find the right item and gives staff the context needed to respond quickly.

The administration portal keeps the storefront and back-office process aligned. Teams can manage stock and pricing, featured products, special promotions, delivery options, click and collect, web enquiries, customer communications, orders, invoices and credit notes, payments, website content, and performance reporting. Order records keep product lines, notes and linked enquiries visible, while customer contact and delivery details remain connected to retail activity. Built-in customer relationship management, stock control, order management, invoicing, payment processing and shipping documentation support fulfilment from enquiry to dispatch.

Storefront insights help teams analyse product engagement, cart abandonment and business performance. These reports turn everyday retail activity into information for improving availability, product presentation, conversion and follow-up. The result is a single, dealership-focused retail operation that supports customers at every stage: search, decision, purchase or enquiry, fulfilment and ongoing communication.
