Using IAP/EZConnect in eOrder

eOrder passes information through our data partner Internet Auto Parts (IAP). Currently, IAP works with several large aftermarket parts providers including O'Reilly and CARQUEST. This documentation focuses on O'Reilly and CARQUEST. For a complete list of IAP partners visit: http://www.iapshop.com

Prior to using eOrder:

  1. You need to establish an account with your local IAP parts store. If you do not have an existing account contact your local parts store directly or visit their website.
    • R.O. Writer cannot contact parts suppliers on behalf of our customers.
  2. After your relationship is activated, you need to set up an interface for it in Configuration - Setting up an IAP/EZConnect Supplier.

Ordering from IAP

You can query and order from IAP by selecting an IAP supplier (O'Reilly or CARQUEST) as the Supplier on the Electronic Ordering window.

Line Codes

You need to use valid IAP part numbers with the correct line codes so that eOrder can find the parts. The Download Supplier Lines option downloads the MCL file for the IAP supplier. Select it before performing a query.

You can configure the IAP electronic interface to automatically download the MCL file every seven days.

You can configure IAP suppliers to not download the MCL file automatically.
