| What I use may not be useful for a large fleet, but it works great for what I do. The program is called Lube Log, and its a Palm program running on my Treo 700p. I can enter in vehicles, VIN numbers, engine type, capacities, etc., then for each vehicle, I can make a parts list for consumable parts or any other or as many as I want. When I look at parts for a specific vehicle, I get the parts only for that vehicle. It also has a notes section for each vehicle that I can use for separate notes for specific vehicles, and has a maintenance history reporting function. I like it because I carry my Treo everywhere, and if I have any question (part number, last oil change, spark plug type, etc.) I have it with me and not on my computer at home. I have any machinery or other thing with an engine in the program.
Another type of program like this is called Auto Buddy with similar functions, yet with other bells and whistles.
