Select the option (or options) that meets your needs and click on Save. 

Open the Point of Sale, add a client and click on Part(s), beside the button - Delete.

The next page will display the suppliers you have registered in your Internet Catalog. Click on the supplier you want to buy products from.

In this case, we chose Napa Canada and we were redirected to the Napa website.

Here, you can add the required parts by selecting the items you need.

Once you've selected the items, click on Send to GEM-CAR. You can choose to send it directly to GEM-CAR or preview it before transferring it to the estimate. This action will transfer the products' information to the estimate within the Point of Sale.
