Specific Vehicle Kits uses the Year Make Model and Engine Code to decide what kits will work on what vehicles.
Not fool proof, but works in 90% of the applications.
When you create a Specific Kit for say a 2002 Chevrolet TrailBlazer Engine S,<BR>when another vehicle
with the same Yeer Make Engine code is noted in your vehicle data base, that kit will be assigned to
those vehicles ALSO<BR>and they will be available in the Work Order for Importing.
The items in the kits must be in the Products or the NonStock File.
