GM Wiper Blades

What is the deal with the part # changes on wipers. Gm seems to be phasing out the Advantage line of wipers. But the catalog and Autosoft are not working together. Makes finding blades for my guys a huge pain in the rear. Anyone have a simple cross reference that would help out.

2 person department here. Me plus one other that started less than 1 month ago. So you can imagine what my day is like. Don't get me wrong they are a good parts person. Just no GM experience.

Training for new hire

Just hired a new guy today. When I was hired I was basically left to fend for myself. Lots of mistakes were made. I do not want this person to have to do that. Is there some training from Autosoft I can show him.
