Load part by model is used to load "Model Specific" parts only for viewing or editing. No "global" parts are listed here. The sorting method and therefore the search method can be changed by selecting different "Sort By" options from the drop down list of methods.

To load a part by model, select Parts from the Main Menu. Select Load Part / Model from the drop down menu. The Select Part search list is displayed.

The difference between loading a part by model as opposed to code is the search text. The search text here is the vehicle Model. As a model name is entered, the listing scrolls to the model that matches the search text. All parts specific to the model are listed in alphabetical order. Scroll through the list using the Up and Down arrow keys, Page Up and Page Down keys or by dragging the scroll bar with the mouse.

Select the part from the list that you wish to load. The Edit Part dialogue for the selected part is shown to the screen in "View mode". This view of the selected part does not reveal the Notes or Cost Price fields. This is to prevent a client from seeing these fields should they be looking at the screen while you check a part price. Select any field and change the information as needed.

Click Edit or press the Spacebar to reveal the hidden fields. If you make any changes to the part file, click Ok or press Enter to save the changes. Clicking Cancel or pressing Esc closes the window without saving. To delete the part from the system, click Delete Part. Deleted parts are no longer found by Part History searches.

Note:
Any field in the edit part dialogue may be edited. If you change the code, however, G-E assumes you have created a new part entry. G-E will then ask if you wish to delete the part entry with the original code. If you select Yes, G-E will remove the original part library entry from the system. If you select No, G-E will add a new part entry to the library with the new code.
If you change the Model name in the Model field, G-E will create a new part entry for this part in the model library you specified.
