Service Scheduling
Customers can schedule new appointments from your dealership's website, their Auto.Live profile, or you can quickly add new appointments when customers call the BDC.
Check-In with Video Walk-Around
Find your customer in your appointment list, click start and begin taking a video to verify the vehicle's condition. All walk-around forms can be customized to suit your dealership, and videos eliminate false claims of damage.
Vehicle Inspection
Each inspection form can be customized, can include videos and images, and suggested services will automatically join estimate when their condition is marked as needing service.
Estimate Building
When you get to the estimate, it will come filled with customer requested services, services added from the inspection, and you'll have the ability to adjust labor time or rate, list the repair steps, or specify needed parts.
Parts Management
Your parts counter has a single list showing all repairs that require parts, and a second list to keep track of needed parts that are not on hand. Once your out-of-stock parts arrive, automated messages with links for service scheduling will be sent to your customer.
