Definitions
‘Direct Account’ - original FleetPride customer
‘Corcentric Account’ - FleetPride customer who has opted into the Corcentric program
Account Transition
Existing FleetPride Customers -> Corcentric Account
Corcentric reaches out to Cheryl and lets her know which existing FP customers are joining their program (this can happen several times daily)
Cheryl puts information received from Corcentric into an excel template to be used with A/R Assignment tracker
Cheryl updates Assignment tracker.xlsx and links to excel created from Corcentric information (Column O)
Exception: If they are tax-exempt, Corcentric will provide the tax exempt certificate which is then forwarded to A/R directly at acctmaint@fleetpride.com - these do not go on the tracker
A/R creates a new account with new account # for Corcentric accounts
A/R utilizes the A/R Task Tracker to transfer information from old account profile to new account profile in iSeries
Includes transferring OSR Salesman # to assign new account to OSR on go-live date
Exception: branch/ dept # / code (A/R leaves it blank)
A/R puts old direct account # on Type ‘H’ for Hold
Cheryl checks tracker for new account # and updated information from A/R. If she sees that it has not yet been created/updated after 48 hours, she follows-up with A/R.
Cheryl goes into old account profile and changes the group ID to 7461 (this is for tracking purposes)
iSeries: Master Menu
Select (3) Accounts Receivable
Select (1) Master Files Maintenance Menu
Select (1) Maintain Customer Master File
Input Company, Customer, Branch (or search account name)

Also cc’s Mike Cashman, EDI, Steve Madsen, POS Rebates, Store Ops, Mary Otwell from A/R
Example:
Cheryl sends a list of accounts to customerservice@fleetpride.com so that the Digital Team can set them up on FP.com
Information includes: Account Name, Account #, Contact First & Last Name, Contact Email, Contact Phone # (optional), FP.com Role (Admin, Buyer, or Viewer)
One email per account – default is BUYER role
Per A/R, all digital accounts set up for Corcentric must be for the individual accounts not just linked to the parent account; this is to prevent issues with billing, credits and rebilling

Pricing Setup
Parts Process – Matt Dixon (pricing)
Service Process
Notification of a new Corcentric Customer comes through to Service Ops (currently directly to Chris Micheal, Service Ops)
Chris Creates a “Customer Override Pricing” entry in Karmak
In Karmak, create new “Default Branch” Customer Override Pricing per every unique account number both parent and dash account.
Ie 555555 000-005 would create 6 entries in Karmak. One for the parent and 5 for each dash account.
Entry includes standard Corcentric labor discount (Door – 10%)
Enable print parts, task, and misc details.
Filter Programs
Corcentric no longer offers a filter program through Corcentric everything is direct with the customer and the filter manufacturer.
Mike asks about current oil filter program in initial discussions with the customer
Mike and Cheryl work directly with the Filter Manufactures to ensure new accounts receive the same discount as before
When customer reaches out to Corcentric about old filter program, Corcentric/TSM/Mike reaches out to Cheryl
Cheryl reaches out to manufacturer sales rep filter with new account number & account name with CC to Dianna Merrell from Corcentric
Filter Manufacturer | Main Contact | Phone Number | |
Baldwin | Ron Norman | ron.norman@parker.com | 559-259-0979 |
Cummins | Bradley W Fortson | bradley.fortson@cummins.com | 814-722-8129 |
Donaldson | Brad Werner | brad.werner@donaldson.com | 612-476-5950 |
FleetGuard | Brad Fortson | Bradley.Fortson@atmus.com |
|
Filter manufacturer re-adds customer to filter program and sends both Cheryl & Dianna email confirmation
Dianna confirms with customer
TBD:
Price Exceptions (PEMs)
PEM’s transferring from old direct account to the new Corcentric Account??
When they are moved they have to get a new account number so the sales data can be tracked separately from direct activity and through Corcentric. These means the exceptions are lost and if they have a catalog that too is lost as they now fall under the Corcentic Catalog.
Right now – Mike sends Cheryl part #, Pool, agreed upon price – pricing sets up
OSR Account Assignment
A/R assigns OSR to new Corcentric accounts on go-live day
All drops follow regular Account Change Process rules. Accounts may be dropped after 12 months on a BOB, however, targets will remain.
New Customer – we want to filter these out in dashboards/KPI (Jordan speaking to Peter)
Scenario | OSR Assignment/Un-Assignment |
Existing FleetPride Customers -> Corcentric Account | -New Corcentric Account is assigned to same Salesman # as FP Direct Account (House or OSR) |
Brand New Corcentric Accounts | -Salesman # defaults to House |
Corcentric Accounts -> Direct FleetPride Account | -A/R assigns automatically? -Corcentric Account stays on OSR’s BOB unless dropped via Account Change Form to Sales Ops |
Closed Corcentric Accounts | -Corcentric Account stays on OSR’s BOB unless dropped via Account Change Form to Sales Ops |
Existing FleetPride Customers -> Corcentric Account
The OSR that is currently assigned to the FP Direct Account has been automatically assigned to the new Corcentric account. If you would like to remove the FP Direct Account from the seller's BOB, please follow the standard Account Change process. Please be sure to state that this was transitioned to a Corcentric account in your request. The target from the FP Direct Account will not be dropped. If you have any questions, please reach out to Sales Ops.

Program Launch Communication
Improve communication for customer locations about program.
Mike to work with Corcentric to produce an announcement that can highlight program details and launch date that customer can send out to all individual locations to improve first impressions.
Communicate Corcentric Catalog to OSR
Jordan working on pulling a list of field team members, including the assigned OSR
Do accounts merge in Salesforce? Compleo? - No.
***PRICING LEVEL – everything under group # - automatically on same level??
National account ID – price level (3) or price catalog
Catalog - subset of parts
Some old legacy accounts - transervice, reinhardt/reyas old price catalogs (preference to put them all on one)
Only when its wrong – Cheryl or NAM
Same process with GFL?
Mike Cashman – does each
