Master data
Core data on vehicles and parts.
Clean master data is prerequisite for eBay, shop, and accounting. Maintenance starts at intake. In German used-parts trade, Master data is an everyday term. Recyclers should use it consistently in the team and ERP so search, eBay listings, and customer communication align. Technically correct maintenance saves inquiries and reduces returns. Document relevant attributes in structured fields instead of free text only. Train new staff specifically on this term, especially at vehicle intake and part capture.
