Send the order to GSF without leaving the purchase order

GSF Car Parts is one of the UK's largest motor factors, with around 180 branches across the UK and Ireland and OE-quality parts across every major system on the vehicle.

BOOKAR submits your parts order to GSF from the purchase order you have already raised on the job. Your PO number travels with it, the submission is recorded against the job, and the branch, your team and your accounts all end up working from the same reference.

Live integration — available on your BOOKAR account with a GSF trade account.

What the GSF integration does

The purchase order you would raise anyway becomes the order. There is no second document and no separate reference to reconcile later.

Order from the purchase order

Build the job, add the parts, raise the PO, submit. The lines on the purchase order are the lines that go to GSF.

Your reference on their order

The BOOKAR PO number is sent with the order, so the delivery note and the invoice come back against something your team recognises.

A message to the branch

Add a note to the submission — a collection time, a vehicle detail, or anything the counter needs to know.

Logged against the job

Every submission is recorded on the purchase order with its result, so you can see what was sent, when, and by whom.

Works with local collection

GSF offers Click & Collect from a local branch in as little as 30 minutes. Order in BOOKAR, send someone round, book it in when it lands.

Costs where they belong

Receipt the delivery against the PO and the purchase cost flows through to the job and out to your accounting package.

How It Works

From the job to GSF Car Parts and back

Four steps, all of them inside the work your team is already doing.

1

Build the job

Add the parts to the work order in the normal way, with the vehicle and the labour already on it.

2

Raise the purchase order

BOOKAR creates the PO from the parts on the job, with your own PO numbering.

3

Submit to GSF

Send the order with an optional note. The result comes back and is stored on the purchase order.

4

Receive and reconcile

Book the parts in against the PO, then match the supplier invoice and export it to your accounts.

Benefits

Why garages turn it on

Most parts mistakes are administrative rather than technical: the wrong reference, the wrong job, or an order nobody recorded.

  • One document, from estimate to purchase order to supplier order
  • No copy-and-paste into a separate ordering website
  • The branch quotes your PO number back to you
  • A written record of every submission against the job
  • Deliveries booked in against the order they came from
  • Supplier invoices matched without hunting for the job

Questions

Common questions about GSF Car Parts

Do I need a GSF trade account?

Yes — the integration places orders on your own account, so your terms and pricing are your own. If you already buy from GSF, that arrangement carries on unchanged.

Can I add a note for the branch?

Yes. Each submission can carry a message, which is useful for collection times, a vehicle detail, or anything the counter needs alongside the part numbers.

What if the order changes after it is sent?

Speak to the branch as you would today. BOOKAR keeps the record of what was submitted, so the purchase order still tells you what was originally ordered and against which job.
