On the technical specifications of the vehicle
- In some cases, the lists of codes and/or
the levels of equipment suggested by the Vehicle Identification
form and the After Sales Plate are different. Why?
Quite simply because they are not exactly the same thing.
An example will help us understand this.
Let us define a new vehicle, a Laguna, type B56F, on the vehicle
form.
Click on "Level of equipment". The list suggested
is: E1, E2, E3.
Now click on "After Sales Plate". The program requests
that you enter the production number of the vehicle or the date
of production. Let's take a production date between "MOD9805"
and "MOD9909", for example. The After Sales Plate
is displayed, and offers the following list of equipment levels:
E2, E3, E5.
The two lists offered are clearly quite different. Remember
that we had to enter the production date to gain access to the
After Sales Plate: this is because Dialogys requires this additional
information to know what After Sales Plate data to suggest.
In fact, this information depends on the following information:
- the first three characters of the vehicle type (or "B56"
in our example)
- a period between two production dates.
To return to our example,
- the list "E2, E3, E5" thus provides all the possible
values for the equipment level on vehicles manufactured between
9805 and 9909, for which the type begins with B56, which naturally
includes the B56F vehicles, but also the B56H, B56J, B56L,
etc.;
- while the list "E1, E2, E3" corresponds to all
the possible values for the equipment level on vehicle type
B56F.
None of the versions of Dialogys attempts to create the intersection
of these lists based on all the known criteria (it would only
be possible to offer the list "E2, E3" in either case
for the vehicle defined). This functionality could be developed
if there were sufficient demand (this is not evident at present
because there is no real problem in selecting from two or three
values given that the user is always working on an actual vehicle
for which he knows the level of equipment) and after more a detailed
analysis (because we must remember that the lists offered may,
in any case, be subject to caution).

- Why are the lists of codes and/or the
levels of equipment suggested by the "Cross Documentation"
and the After Sales Plate different?
The lists from the "Cross documentation" are the same
as those suggested at the outset on the Vehicle Identification
form. Refer to the answer to the preceding question.
