The inquiry form still uses the old part number, but the packaging label shows a new number. Purchasing staff cannot confirm whether both refer to the same compatible part. If this issue is handled only in chat, downstream staff may struggle to identify the evidence used.
For part number change confirmation, the person taking over needs to see the subject, original materials, unresolved fields, and approval actions. The pause points below are Starvia's order handling recommendations. Local regulations, technical assessments, and decisions by competent authorities must still be confirmed by the respective responsible parties.
Rebuild the issue from the old-number label
The parts order administrator first creates an index entry for the physical label bearing the old number, recording the vehicle or order identity, receipt channel, and document status. Screenshots that cannot be traced back to original materials serve only as locating aids. Keep missing identification fields in the pending verification column.
Next, place the number change notice alongside the model and VIN fitment page and identify matching and conflicting fields individually. The repair technical contact assesses only affected subjects and records the reason for acceptance in the inventory transition record.
The part number change confirmation covers only subjects checked in the table. Other vehicles or materials in the same batch retain their individual statuses.
When to pause and what to record
| What to check | When you can proceed | When you must pause | Who is responsible |
|---|---|---|---|
| Physical label bearing the old number | The label identifies the subject of this order, and the original file is traceable | Preserve original materials and mark missing identification fields for the label | Parts order administrator |
| Number change notice | The notice states its source, version, and affected scope | Retain conflicting versions side by side and return the notice for clarification of its applicable subjects | Warehouse receiving inspector |
| Model and VIN fitment page | The page is consistent with the vehicle, order, or physical item's condition | Put affected matters on hold and ask the repair technical contact to review the fitment page | Repair technical contact |
| Inventory transition record | The record lists the scope of acceptance, responsible person, and conditions for taking effect | Keep the status pending verification and state the conditions for resuming work in the record | After-sales approver |
A proceeding status in the table means materials can be handed to the next role. It does not mean ordering, quarantine, returns or exchanges, or substitution has been approved. Actual actions require sign-off by the person with the relevant authority. Refer questions outside internal responsibilities to local professionals.
Distinguish the Roles of Official Sources and Order Evidence
For questions about local requirements, return to the CONASET vehicle safety certification page for this market to check the current official reference point. Record the inquiry date, original question, and applicable subjects. Internal company status cannot replace the outcome of official application handling.
When asking external channels about this check, include the subject identifier, version reviewed, and fields requiring answers. Classify responses as formal decisions, procedural explanations, or general opinions. Only content that explicitly covers the model and VIN fitment page should enter the acceptance record.
Use the transition record for later handoffs
Keep the original number for existing inventory and use the new number only as a linked field. Before issuing parts for repairs, check them against the vehicle's identity again to avoid substituting parts simply because their numbers are similar.
Before handoff, the after-sales approver traces unresolved items and conditions for resuming work through the inventory transition record. The next order can use the Starvia Purchasing FAQ to prepare materials, but the contract, vehicle, and document versions still require a fresh check.
FAQ
If the number change notice conflicts with the model and VIN fitment page, which should we use first?
For change confirmation, first open the physical label bearing the old number. Save conflicting versions side by side and identify each source and the subjects it covers. Transfer the relevant supporting evidence from the old-number label to the inventory transition record. Record the scope of this question in the inventory transition record.
Can an old-number label alone decide the part action?
For change confirmation, first open the number change notice. Status changes apply only to subjects covered by the evidence; assess vehicles in the same batch separately. Transfer the relevant supporting evidence from the number change notice to the old-number label record. Record the scope of this question in that label record.
Can the next batch of Chile orders reuse the results of this review?
For change confirmation, first open the model and VIN fitment page. Create a separate index for the next order; the current sign-off does not transfer automatically. Transfer the relevant supporting evidence from the fitment page to the number change notice. Record the scope of this question in the number change notice.
How should we record the status if the current task has only a verbal response?
For change confirmation, first open the inventory transition record. If documents cannot be traced back to their provider, mark the gap as awaiting additional evidence. Transfer the relevant supporting evidence from the inventory transition record to the model and VIN fitment page. Record the scope of this question on the fitment page.
