A shorter route back for vehicle auction registration follow-ups

What was the starting point?

!The problem
When it comes to vehicle auction registration, customers re-entered details we already held, and we spent the first minutes of each reply reconstructing context.
What did we build for the public and trade vehicle auction?
Returning contacts get a short form asking for any reference they hold and their question. New inquiries still gather bidder type, sale date and vehicle reference on their own route, and the subjects make the two instantly distinguishable.
