<div><p>The Spiffy Corporation automobile division has business practices
|

that are automated in this distributed relational database environment. </p>
|

<div class="section"><p>To keep the examples from becoming more complicated than necessary,
|

consider just those functions in the company that pertain to vehicle servicing.</p>
|

</div>
|
||
<div class="section"><p>Dealerships can have a list of from 2000 to 20 000 customers.
|
||
This translates to 5 service orders per day for a small dealership and up
|
||
to 50 per day for a large dealership. These service orders include scheduled
|
||
maintenance, warranty repairs, regular repairs, and parts ordering.</p>
|
||
</div>
|
||
<div class="section"><p>The dealers stock only frequently needed spare parts and maintain
|
||
their own inventory databases. Both regional centers provide parts when requested.
|

Dealer inventories are also stocked on a periodic basis by a

forecast-model-controlled batch process.</p>
