The police book is a record of used vehicles bought and sold by dealerships in QLD. It is a requirement by the QLD Police Department and the QLD Office of Fair Trading that each dealership maintains a record and it is expected that it will be accurate and up to date. Dealerlogic automatically creates the police book entries for you each time a vehicle is brought into stock (has a stock card created) and sold (either through transfer, a new registration or dispose). However it is crucial that the stock locate is checked periodically to ensure that the stock cards are displaying accurately. |
When do I need to print it?
Historically it was a requirement to print your police book monthly. This is no longer the case; however it may still be in practice at your dealership. The requirement from the Office of Fair Trading and the QLD Police Department is that if you are keeping an electronic police book (if you are using Dealerlogic to keep this then you are) then you must be able to provide it when requested. It is not a bad idea to print it monthly and use it to reconcile your stock locate.
