Deerfield Beach, Fla. – JMsolutions (www.jmfe-jmsolutions.com), a recognized leader in the creation of innovative software systems that yield automotive dealers impressive results, has announced Release 4.0 of its used-vehicle inventory optimization solution -- AAX™.  Part of the JMsolutions™ RetailSuite™ of Web-based, integrated technology products and services, AAX offers inventory management solutions that support the used-vehicle operations of automotive dealerships.  The new AAX 4.0 provides users an enhanced experience with simplified navigation, improved content organization and process flow, and more profit-maximizing inventory features.  

In addition to the intuitive interface, new functionality designed to help dealers better manage their used-vehicle operations will be unveiled at this year’s National Automotive Dealers Association (NADA) Conference and Expo and includes:

• XchangeLane® – XchangeLane is a natural next step in the evolution of the AAX product.  It provides used-vehicle managers with enhanced tools to help them buy and sell inventory recommended by AAX intelligence.  XchangeLane will feature Runlist integration from various auctions across the country.

“The AAX product continues to help dealers intelligently appraise products, reduce wholesale losses, and increase turn times,” said JMsolutions President Scott Barrett. ”We’re excited that the new user interface has been so warmly received by our pilot dealers and we are confident that our customers will be very pleased with the addition of the latest functionality supporting their internet marketing and wholesale needs.” 

In addition, the new AAX was designed to complement JMsolutions’ RetailSuite consisting of DealerUps™ CRM (customer relationship management), ProCal™ desking, ProFi™ menu, and PinPoint™ reporting technology solutions.  The JMsolutions RetailSuite supports dealers through all phases of the sales process – from start to finish – and Release 4.0’s new interface provides a consistent, instinctive experience across product offerings.
