Appointments made easy

The appointments / diary system in Garage Assistant GA3 allows you to quickly create and manage appointments using drag and drop. You can enter as much or as little information as you require against the appointment, including the vehicle registration, make, model and customer details.

From the appointment, you can then create a document with ease, all the details you have entered will be automatically entered on to the document ready for you to add labour and parts.

There is also a section on the appointment screen which is dedicated to bookings with no time associated, this allows you to take 'day' bookings and drag to the appropriate time if required.

What's more, you can add as many booking slots as required, such as one for each technician or ramp in your workshop. You can also add your own booking status and colour code these to suite..

The appointment / diary system includes views for Day, Week, Month and Year along with a listing view allowing you to display or print all your upcoming appointments.

Professional Invoices, Estimates and Statements

Garage Assistant allows you to create a variety of documents such as Estimates, Job sheets, Pro Forma Invoices, Policy Excess Invoices, Credit Notes and Statements

GA3 also allows you to customise the document templates by including your own letter head images / logos, footer images and even a watermark style image, giving you more control over the final presentation of your documents.

Powerful Searching, Find information fast

Using the new quick search, you can type in keywords into a single search box and GA3 will search across your database for Estimates, Invoices, Job sheets, Customer Records, Vehicle Records and appointments in a few seconds providing you with a list of the most recent matches. From here, you can go directly to the record you require.

Each section also has its own specific search box allowing you to perform a more 'narrow' search across a specific area, such as when searching the customer database by name or address.

DVLA Registration Lookup

Garage Assistant GA3 allows you to perform vehicle registration mark lookups from the DVLA databases, giving you access to accurate information about the vehicle. Including Chassis Numbers, Engine Codes and Engine Numbers.

What's more, this service does not require a subscription. Our DVLA lookup service works on a pay as you go basis, you simply top up with VRM Credits as and when you require them, directly from within the garage software.

Stock Control / Inventory Management

The stock control system in GA3 allows you to add items whether you wish to track the quantities or not, which allows you to use it for a typing aid if you don't hold stock.

Finding items in stock is a breeze, with an arrangement of search options including keyword search, category, manufacturer, supplier or a combination of these. You can even specify an option to show only items which are currently available.

Using the stock system on a document is simple. There's four ways in which you can add stock to a document, either by entering a part number, which narrows down a list as you type, by using the labour management system with pre-populated stock items, by selecting individual items from the stock browser or by using the new shopping basket style feature which allows you to add multiple items to a basket before returning to the document.

Order Management

The stock order management allows you to keep track of what parts have been ordered, what you still need to order and also helps manage your stock quantities accurately. When receiving stock items, you can also have GA3 create an expense record from the same screen

Employee Database

Have you ever spent a considerable amount of time trying to find where you wrote down your employee's home phone number, or trying to remember what date they started working for you?

In GA3 you can securely store this information in an employee database. You can keep a record of emergency contacts, training information, contract periods and more.

Customer Management

GA3 allows you to keep track of your account customers, produce statements, view charts showing the customers spending over the year and more.

The customer profile screen allows you to view all vehicles owned by that customer, all the invoices you have produced and produce statements, even if they do not hold an account.

Send your Data to Sage Accounting Software

GA3 also contains the facility to transfer your invoice records to SAGE accounting systems and has been tested on various versions of sage

Transferring the data is straight forward and requires very little effort on your part to ensure everything is up to date.
