Truck parts ecommerce: dealer routing & commissions

Truck parts: every order to the right dealer, automatically. Commissions worked out for you.

Online orders pile up in head office, dealers argue over whose postcode it was and month-end commissions live in a spreadsheet only one person understands. We build truck parts ecommerce and dealer systems that route each order to the nearest dealer, work out the commission on the spot and keep a catalogue of thousands of parts searchable. Then we host them and look after them.

Looking for truck parts ecommerce that routes orders to your dealers?

A truck parts network is a warehouse, a website, a freight desk and a dozen dealers spread across the state, all selling the same filters, brake chambers and LED lights. The online store usually only knows about head office. So every order gets exported, matched to a dealer by hand, emailed across and then argued about at the end of the month when the commission spreadsheet comes out.

Wollopit builds custom truck parts software around how your network actually works. Orders find the nearest dealer on their own. Commission is calculated the moment the order is placed. Customers search by part number, cross-reference or truck model and actually find the right part. Dealers get their own portal with orders, stock and statements. We connect your accounting, freight and supplier price files, then host and look after the lot.

01The problems

What we hear from truck parts suppliers

Does your truck parts business have these problems? Here's how we'd fix them.

Most truck parts businesses we talk to know their parts inside out. It's the bit between the website, the dealers and the spreadsheet that falls over.

  • The problemOrders land in the wrong placeEvery online order drops into head office, then someone works out which dealer should have it and forwards an email.
    How we fix itOrders routed to the nearest dealer by postcode, territory or stock on hand, with the dealer notified straight away.
  • The problemTerritory argumentsTwo dealers both reckon a customer in a border town is theirs and nobody can prove it either way.
    How we fix itTerritories drawn on a map with clear rules, so every order shows exactly why it went where it went.
  • The problemCommission spreadsheetsMonth end means exporting orders, matching them to dealers and working out percentages in Excel.
    How we fix itCommission worked out on every order as it happens, with rates by dealer, brand or product range.
  • The problemA catalogue too big to manageThousands of parts across dozens of suppliers and half of them aren't on the website properly.
    How we fix itBulk catalogue imports from supplier files with categories, images, specs and pricing loaded in one go.
  • The problemPart numbers that don't matchOEM numbers, aftermarket numbers and supplier codes all mean the same filter but the search only knows one.
    How we fix itCross-reference search so any part number, brand code or superseded number finds the right part.
  • The problemWrong parts orderedA customer orders brake shoes for the wrong axle and the part comes back with a freight bill attached.
    How we fix itFitment search by make, model, year and axle, with a 'fits your truck' check before checkout.
  • The problemNobody knows who has stockThe website says in stock but it's in a dealer two hours away and the customer needed it today.
    How we fix itDealer stock shown by location, with orders routed to whoever can actually supply it fastest.
  • The problemFleet accounts on the phoneTransport companies ring through orders, want their own pricing and need a PO number on every invoice.
    How we fix itFleet logins with their own pricing, PO numbers, credit limits and reorder lists for each depot.
  • The problemFreight quoted by handA bull bar and a box of globes don't ship the same way and someone has to ring around for a quote.
    How we fix itFreight calculated at checkout by weight, size and destination, with labels booked through your carriers.
  • The problemPrice files every monthSuppliers send new price lists and somebody spends two days updating the website.
    How we fix itSupplier price files imported on a schedule with your margins applied and changes flagged for review.
  • The problemCore returns and warranty chaosExchange turbos, starter motors and warranty claims tracked on sticky notes and core charges never chased.
    How we fix itCore charges, return tracking and warranty claims logged against each order with automatic reminders.
  • The problemBrochures take daysEvery promo flyer gets built from scratch and the prices are wrong by the time it's printed.
    How we fix itBrochures and flyers generated straight from the catalogue with live prices, ready to print or email.

Dealer routing & commissions

  • Different rates for trade and retail

04How it changes

Before and after

A month-end commission run, wolloped.

Here's how month end could change. Every parts network is different, so we map yours first.

Before

  1. Export a month of orders from the website
  2. Match each order to a dealer by hand
  3. Work out commission rates in Excel
  4. Adjust for refunds and returns nobody logged
  5. Email statements to each dealer
  6. Spend a week arguing over territories

After

  1. Orders were routed to dealers as they came in
  2. Commission worked out on every order
  3. Refunds and returns already adjusted
  4. Statements ready in every dealer's portal
  5. Payouts exported to Xero or MYOB
  6. Every order shows why it went where it went

07How we work

The process

Some people dip their toe in. We turn up in a rebreather.

We get properly below the surface of your truck parts business: the systems, the busy days and the jobs everyone hates. Then we fix the bits that matter most first.

  1. 01

    Think

    We sit with head office, the freight desk and a few dealers to see where orders, stock and commissions actually go wrong.

  2. 02

    Archi-tech

    We plan it before writing code: your territories, commission rules, catalogue, suppliers, freight, accounts, hosting and cost.

  3. 03

    Build

    Real engineering, shown to you early and often. Usually order routing and commissions first, so the next month end is already easier.

  4. 04

    Look after

    We host it, maintain it and keep improving it. When something breaks you call the people who built it.

08Questions

FAQ

Things truck parts suppliers ask us.

Something else on your mind? Ring 0423 011 252 and ask the people who'd build it.

Can orders go to the nearest dealer automatically?

Yes. We route each order by postcode, territory, distance or stock on hand, with a fallback dealer if the nearest one can't supply. Every order shows why it went where it went.

Can commission rates be different for each dealer?

Yes. Rates can be set by dealer, brand, product range or customer type and they're worked out on every order. Refunds and returns adjust the commission on their own.

Can dealers manage their own orders?

Yes. Each dealer gets a portal with their orders, customers, stock and commission statements. They can accept and dispatch orders without ringing head office.

Can customers search by part number or truck?

Yes. Search works on OEM numbers, aftermarket codes, superseded numbers and cross-references, plus fitment search by make, model and year.

We already use an ERP or ecommerce platform. Do we have to switch?

No. If Pronto, Cin7, Shopify or whatever you run is doing its job, we build around it and connect to it. If something's holding you back we'll show you what replacing it involves before anything changes.

Can you load our supplier price files?

Yes. We import supplier files on a schedule, apply your margins and flag big price changes for you to check before they go live.

How much does a truck parts system cost?

It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand it. No surprise invoices, no lock-in and you own what we build.

How long does it take?

Smaller jobs like a brochure builder or freight calculator can be quick. Bigger systems are planned in stages so you get the first win early, usually routing and commissions, instead of waiting for everything at once.

Who looks after it once it's built?

We do. We host it on our own managed servers and keep it updated and secure. When you need something you ring the people who built it.

We already have systems. Can you upgrade them instead of starting again?

Usually, yes. Most truck parts suppliers we work with keep what's working and upgrade the rest in stages. We move your data across, connect the old and new while we switch and retire the old system only when the new one is proven.
