Managing Displayed Prices on Vehicle Listings

Why you would use Displayed Price on Vehicle Listing

  • Most Vehicles have 2 prices in the supplied data.
    • Drive Away Price = The selling price of the car including any transfer fee, government taxes or dealer delivery
    • Base Price = The base price of the car before any additional drive-away fees are added
    • As per ACC guidelines, it is recommended you always use the Drive Away price
  • This setting allows you to set the price displayed based on rules to suit your business
  • You can also set the text to display if there is no price available, the default is TBC (To Be Confirmed)
  • At times, you may not have both prices set for a Vehicle in your Dealer Management System (DMS)
  • The data displayed on your listing will be the same as the data you have entered in your DMS

What are the available settings?

  • Price to Display
    • Use Drive Away Price - always use the Drive Away Price. If the drive-away price is not available, then TBC (to be confirmed) will be displayed
    • Use Base Price - always use the Base Price. If the drive away price is not available, then TBC (to be confirmed) will be displayed
    • Use Drive Away Price if available else use Base Price - Use the Drive Away Price.
      • If the drive-away price is not available, then Base Price will be displayed.
      • If neither price is available, then TBC (to be confirmed) will be displayed
    • Use Base Price if available else use Drive Away Price - Use the Base Price.
      • If the Base price is not available, then the Drive Away Price will be displayed.
      • If neither price is available, then TBC (to be confirmed) will be displayed
  • No Price Text
    • If the rules are set that no price can be displayed (for example, you may set Use Drive Away Price but there is no value entered in your DMS for Drive Away Price)
    • The text to display instead of the price is used
    • The default text is TBC but this can be changed to any value you wish
    • Just be careful of the text length and test to ensure it matches the space available on your listing page

    vehicles not showing

Please be advised: If you want to display the vehicles without images, you may continue to step 2. However, it is recommended that you do not change this setting.

  • Base Price = The base price of the car before any additional drive-away fees are added

As per ACC guidelines, it is recommended you always use the Drive Away price. This setting allows you to set the price displayed based on rules to suit your business which can be configured in the Admin Site Settings.

  • You can also set the text to display if there is no price available, the default is TBC (To Be Confirmed)
  • At times, you may not have both prices set for a Vehicle in your Dealer Management System (DMS)
  • The data displayed on your listing will be the same as the data you have entered in your DMS

Drive Away vs Base Price

  • Use Drive Away Price - always use the Drive Away Price. If the drive-away price is not available, then TBC (to be confirmed) will be displayed
  • Use Base Price - always use the Base Price. If the drive-away price is not available, then TBC (to be confirmed) will be displayed
  • Use Drive Away Price if available else use Base Price - Use the Drive Away Price.
    • If the drive-away price is not available, then Base Price will be displayed.
    • If neither price is available, then TBC (to be confirmed) will be displayed
  • Use Base Price if available else use Drive Away Price - Use the Base Price.
    • If the Base price is not available, then the Drive Away Price will be displayed.
    • If neither price is available, then TBC (to be confirmed) will be displayed
  • No Price Text
    • If the rules are set that no price can be displayed (for example, you may set Use Drive Away Price but there is no value entered in your DMS for Drive Away Price)
    • The text to display instead of the price is used
    • The default text is TBC but this can be changed to any value you wish
    • Just be careful of the text length and test to ensure it matches the space available on your listing page

Follow the step-by-step guide to configure your listing price.

Vehicle Listing Sort Options

Vehicle Listing Sort Options Overview

On the front end, vehicles displayed using the VehicleListing curly bracket can be sorted by:

  • Featured - highlighted vehicles are sorted by record orders in the Admin Vehicle Setting, the administrator can control this.
  • Price (low to high or high to low) - vehicles are sorted based on the price data. The administrator can set it to use the Drive Away price or the Base price, learn more.
  • Kms (low to high or high to low) - vehicles are sorted based on the mileage (Kms) data.
  • Year Made (low to high or high to low) - vehicles are sorted based on the year-made data.
  • Last Updated - vehicles are sorted based on the latest imported data.
Vehicle Listing

Why you would use Featured as a vehicle sorting option

The default sorting option for vehicles in a vehicle listing is Sort by Price (low to high), but, having Featured vehicles as a sorting option is useful if the administrator wants to "feature" vehicles regardless of the price, mileage, year or last update. The administrator can add the Featured option in the site settings.

Monitoring Vehicle Feeds

The Vehicle Feed Monitoring Overview

This function will help us keep tracking the vehicle up to date. If we didn't receive the import file for 24 hours an email notification will be sent to support. So it will help us more actively to control the vehicle.

The Vehicle Feed Monitoring Description

This function will run along with the vehicle import process. The vehicle import process is a background task and it will run based on the user's preference. The run interval can be changed by doing the following steps:

STEP-BY-STEP

Publish an API for Carsales Data (Used to Import Vehicle)

API for Carsales Data Overview

We will publish the API for Carsales to post their data. When Carsales get an update on a vehicle, they call us and we get the new data. We want to process directly into the data tables, not use a CSV file.

We also need to understand how images are handled. We want the images on our server, not linking to images on Carsales.

Import vehicle via JSON files

As we know, we already have a feature to import vehicles via files (CSV, TSV). With the current import function, we process the files (import files and image files) imported by User via FTP. Regarding the new request from Carsales, they will be using our publish API to POST the Vehicle-Json files, our system will process these JSON files to get Vehicle Information and Vehicle Images.

I went through the original Import Vehicle function to get the workflow and check if we can reuse the original function. The answer here's, we cannot reuse the original functions because of these things:

  • Structure objects are different: Original functions is using files and process line by line. Vehicle-Json is an object and it's included child objects.
  • Vehicle's Images: Original functions handler manual upload by User. Vehicle-JSON, we need to download the image via URL in a JSON file
  • We don't want to affect the original function which using on live sites.

New function Import vehicle via JSON files

Based on the idea above, I would like to suggest the new import functions which will handle JSON files (vehicle information and Images).

  • Define API, log request, log response
  • Define security API (basic authentication, spam,...)
  • Mapping JSON data to WebEd object for import vehicles
  • Handler import functions (need to create the new function for import)
  • Handler downloads images and Mapping with vehicle (download and convert to WebP)

We separate the import function, but we still keep the same goal "Vehicle Import Correctly and Vehicle's Image correctly"

Summary of the Original Import Workflow:

  • Write log import
  • Get vehicle site setting
  • Move file upload to process
  • Get dealer name
  • Get dealer state
  • Import vehicle from file to VehicleLogs tables
    • Loop all file
    • Read line by line
    • Check stocknumber exist
    • Update/insert VehicleLogs
    • Check and update vehicle images
    • Output total records, start index - end index
  • Move vehicles from VehicleLogs to Vehicles
  • Clean up the VehicleLogs
  • Convert WebP for all uploaded images

New function Import Vehicle Flowchart

Estimation

Based on the breakdown list above, I would like to update the estimation:

  • Define API, log request, and log response (3 hours)
  • Define security API (basic authentication, spam,...) (2 hours)
  • Mapping JSON data to WebEd object for import vehicles: define model objects for mapping (2.5 hours)
  • Handler import functions (need to create the new function for import) (10 hours)
  • Handler downloads images and Mapping with vehicle (download and convert to webp) (8 hours)
  • Test and deployment to the test site ( 1.5 hours)
  • Create task document: requirement, flowchart, mapping,... on confluence page (2.5 hours)
  • Create APIs Document (2.5 hours)
  • Create APIs test plan, and test video (3 hours)

Clarifications and Questions

Send an email to Carsales for these things:

1- Need confirmation with Carsales. Are there any changes on the JSON file (10 months ago) that they send us?

2- Every dealer will have a published API URL base on that dealer.

E.g. https://porschecentreadelaide.com.au/API/importVehicle

https://porschebrighton.com.au/API/importVehicle

3- Request Carsales for more Vehicle-Json. We need more JSON for testing.

Update from Carsales (21 Jul 21): "Vehicles are sent individually per transaction"

Formatting your Vehicle Listings from the FrontEnd or using a secure login

Some websites can be formatted from the front - or provide special access to a staff member which does not give them access to the administration section.

Watch this training video to see how this is done -

How the feed is supplied and why it needs additional formatting

Interactive Partners receives the data feed from Carsales. It arrives with zero formatting (despite numerous requests - they do not wish any other company other than Carsales'subsidiaries to be provided with formatting)

Here is an example of the data we receive, basically one long block of text.

Cayenne Diesel has only had one local owner. It was supplied and serviced by us at Porsche Centre South. It is finished in Carrara White metallic paint with a beige interior. It has only covered 49345 km from the new and is beautifully appointed with the following factory-fitted options: 20-inch RS Spyder Design wheels Metallic Paint. 14-way power seats with memory. Light comfort package Sport Chrono Package Deletion of model designation Coloured wheel centre caps. Power steering Plus. Panoramic roof system. Porsche Entry & Drive Porsche Crest on headrests. Lane Departure Warning with Lane Change Assist. Bi-Xenon light system incl. PDLS Tinted LED taillights. The Porsche Approved commitment means that the pre-owned Porsche you are considering buying has been returned as close to its original condition as possible. Using only Genuine Porsche parts, each vehicle is meticulously prepared by our Porsche-trained technicians. Porsche Approved provides a minimum of 12 months Porsche Approved Factory Warranty and Porsche Roadside Assistance. Our dealership is conveniently situated within minutes of Kingsford Smith airport and 15 minutes from CBD. We offer an airport collection and drop-off service for interstate clients. We can also arrange nationwide delivery in covered transporters, and tailored finance and insurance plans with Porsche Financial Services.

We do our best to work with this and the solution we provide is designed to make formatting as fast and easy as possible. Usually, the text above can be reformatted in 1-2 mins and only has to be done at the time of the first listing.

Below is the same text above edited in under 1 minute, shown on your website. How to do this is explained above.

Once turned on, it takes 1-2 minutes and only needs to be done at the time of first listing the vehicle, the same as you do now via Autogate.

The formatting is persistent and stays with the vehicle stock code for the length of time it appears on the website - regardless of multiple daily feed updates. Links are also able to be included (i.e. Porsche Financial Services)

To show you the difference between the plain text above and the formatted test, here is the HTML that creates the formatting on the page (as seen above)

Important note: Whoever adjusts the formatting does not need to use HTML - this is just to show you how complicated it is under the covers.
