A Study on Multi-Location Ledger Using DPOS (DP46) in a FPL Hyundai Automobile Dealership

Abstract: Automobile dealerships generate large volumes of financial data every day through their Sales, Service, and Parts departments. When a dealership operates across multiple locations, it becomes increasingly difficult to maintain accurate, synchronized, and up-to-date ledgers. Delays in data entry, mismatch in branch-wise reports, duplication of transactions, and manual posting errors can lead to major financial discrepancies and delays in monthly closing activities. To address these issues, Hyundai dealerships use the Dealer Parts Operations System (DPOS), a digital platform designed to automate ledger posting, stock management, billing, and financial reporting. This study focuses on evaluating how effectively DPOS supports multi-location ledger management in a dealership environment.

The research adopts a mixed-method approach using interviews with accounts staff, direct observations of DPOS operations, and analysis of ledger reports and audit data. The findings show that DPOS significantly enhances accuracy, reduces manual intervention, improves real-time data synchronization between branches, and speeds up monthly financial consolidation. However, challenges such as system slowdowns, dependency on user skill, and occasional posting errors still exist.
