Summary
Harley-Davidson require their dealers to complete a composite input document. This is a set of performance indicators that are used for comparison to the other dealers who submit figures, and for monitoring the health of the business and identifying areas for improvement.
More Information
There is a suite of reports available to help you compile the information required. This does demand that you configure and use your Platinum system in a consistent manner. The reports can be adapted at reasonable cost to fit in with your business if required.
Configuring your system
In terms of configuring your system, there are some key areas to consider. For bike sales, the information on the composite for new bikes is broken down by family, so having some easy way to identify the family of bikes to which each of your stock bikes belongs is essential. For parts, this is broken down into parts, accessories, motor clothes and collectables. This information is held on the Harley parts file and is updated into your system automatically for genuine Harley parts. You will need to make sure that you flag any other items such as t-shirts correctly so that they fall into the correct category.
