An approved claim only becomes revenue when the repair is complete

The bottleneck between a claim approval and a closed invoice is almost always parts. DS360 connects your approved claims to parts sourcing — ordering and tracking per claim line, with full visibility in your portal — so nothing stalls between approval and repair.

The Problem

Approved claims that sit waiting are revenue you cannot bill

A warranty claim can be approved quickly. But if the right part takes weeks to source, the repair sits open, the bay stays occupied, the invoice stays unbilled, and the client stays frustrated. Every day a repair waits for a part is a day your dealership is not getting paid for work already authorized.

DS360 closes this gap. The moment a claim is approved, parts ordering begins — tied to the exact claim line, tracked in your portal. No phone tag with distributors, no spreadsheets, no guessing.

Without DS360
  • Claim approved — then silence
  • Phone calls to several distributors
  • Wrong part arrives — delayed again
  • Manual invoice entry
With DS360
  • Ordering begins on approval
  • Sourced from your suppliers — OEM or local
  • VIN-verified — right part, tied to the line
  • Costs auto-flow to the claim invoice
How It Works

From approval to installation

Parts sourcing is built directly into the claims workflow. Every stage below happens in order — no manual handoffs.

  1. 01

    Claim Approved

    The manufacturer approves the claim

    DS360 captures the repair scope, required parts, Flat Rate Code details, and labor authorization. The parts process begins immediately — no manual handoff.

    Parts Identified

    DS360 identifies the exact parts needed

    Based on the approved Flat Rate Code lines, the unit’s VIN, and manufacturer specs, DS360 determines exactly which parts are required — part number, quantity, and compatibility verified.

    Sourced & Ordered

    Sourced and ordered from your suppliers

    The platform orders from the suppliers you already work with — OEM first, approved local or aftermarket when OEM is unavailable. Your team receives confirmation with supplier details and estimated delivery.

    Received & Repaired

    Part received. Repair complete. Invoice closed.

    Your team confirms receipt. DS360 verifies the part matches the approved scope. The repair proceeds, and parts and labor costs flow directly into the claim invoice — itemized and documented for manufacturer payout.

Warranty & service workflows pick up where parts leave off — approved claims with received parts move straight into repair, with labor tracked on the same claim line.

Did You Know?

Most RV warranty repairs don’t wait because a part is unavailable — they wait because ordering is manual, fragmented, and disconnected from the claim. DS360 closes that gap: the moment a claim is approved, the parts process begins and every order stays visible in your portal, tied to the line it belongs to.

Coming Soon — Active Development

Intelligent Sourcing
The DS360 Network Override

Your suppliers are the default. But when the DS360 network can beat them — on price, speed, or proximity — the system flags it. You set the rules. You make the call. Nothing changes without your approval. This capability is in active development, not live today.

You set the override rules

Three rule types. Set one, two, or all three. The system only overrides when your rules say it should.

Lower price

DS360 finds the same part cheaper. Flagged with the exact savings — dollar amount and percentage.

Faster ETA

A DS360 supplier delivers faster. Flagged with the exact time difference.

Closer location

A network supplier is closer to your dealership — less shipping time and cost.

What this looks like in your dashboard

DS360 never silently switches your order. Every recommendation is flagged — the source, the reason, and the exact savings. You decide.

FAQ

Parts & Components questions

What you need to know about how DS360 handles parts sourcing.

Contact us →
Can I use my own preferred suppliers?

Yes. DS360 is built to work with your existing supplier relationships. Your vendor accounts, pricing, and relationships stay intact. DS360 adds tracking and per-line ordering on top.

What happens if a part is back-ordered?

Your team is notified before any substitution is made. Approved local or aftermarket options are presented when OEM is unavailable — nothing is swapped without your say-so.

How does the network override work?

The intelligent network override is in active development, not live today. When it ships, you set the rules — price, ETA, or location. If the DS360 network finds a better option based on your rules, the order is flagged with the recommendation and exact savings. Nothing changes without your approval.

Is parts tracking available now, or is it coming?

Claim-line parts ordering and tracking are live in the platform today — order from your suppliers, track status in your portal, and let costs flow into the claim invoice. The broader intelligent network sourcing is the roadmap piece that is coming.

How are parts costs reflected on the invoice?

Parts costs are captured against the claim line and flow directly into the claim invoice alongside labor charges. Everything is itemized and documented for manufacturer payout.

Stop waiting on parts. Start closing invoices.
