Description
The GDS Workshop Manager is a comprehensive software solution designed for managing everyday operations in a garage, facilitating the generation of invoices, and ensuring precise maintenance of service records. This innovative application encompasses jobsheets, estimates, and sales invoices, allowing for a customizable document creation process that incorporates menu-priced jobs. Invoices can be conveniently divided into insurance and excess categories, streamlining the billing process. Additionally, users can effortlessly complete Vehicle Health Check (VHC) inspection sheets, storing them within the system as part of the vehicle's service history. The software also permits the creation of tailored inspection sheets to meet specific business needs. Checksheets serve a dual purpose, enabling job pricing and facilitating communication with customers via email. Furthermore, the eVHC App enhances user experience by allowing the entry of checksheets directly from mobile devices, which can then be synchronized with the GDS system for seamless integration. This flexibility and user-friendly design make the GDS Workshop Manager an essential tool for modern garages.
