Running an auto shop in Phoenix
Parts inventory that’s hard to track by bay. Invoicing that mixes labor and parts inconsistently.
Parts inventory needs to be tracked by what’s actually used per job, not just counted on a shelf.
Labor and parts margins differ, so invoices need to separate the two clearly to see real profitability per job.
Owners want a clear, same-day view of revenue by technician and by job type.
