Workshop
See what work's due in, how long it's taking and how much it'll
cost. The workshop management provides visibility of chargeable
parts, stock and labour together with detailed WIP
analysis for complete clarity over your profit line.
Keeping track
Once the item has been booked in, your operators can refer back
to any details entered by the
call centre or field engineer.
Chargeable elements
Your operators can elect whether the work to be carried out is
chargeable or not. All chargeable parts, stock and labour can be
passed onto the customer using the billing module. Timesheets are
recorded against each engineer and contract for further
analysis.
Quotations and authorisation
Quotations for work and parts that need customer approval are
easily raised within the management system. You can also
incorporate a level of authorisation, which requires a purchase
order number to be entered before the work is carried out.
Non-contract equipment
A trade counter facility records all relevant customer details
and equipment to be examined and introduces the item into the
workshop. Any internal refurbishment can also be booked the same
way. Parts and equipment no longer required by the customer, but
successfully refurbished, can form part of available stock.
Reporting and analysis
User-definable codes can be selected for future reporting
analysis to show the profitability of all work that has been
carried out. The ability to view work due in, and current work in
progress, together with accurate cost control and integration to
the
billing module, makes the workshop management module an
essential part of service management.
