Quoting for motor mechanics
Software for motor mechanics: how Mechanic Manager supports motor workshop management for Australian motor mechanics.
Use a mobile phone to upload photos to quotes, estimates, job cards and invoices. The photos stay on the document for the customer and the job record.
Australian motor mechanics use quoting every day as part of motor workshop management. A quote is a more formal offer at a stated price for the listed parts and labour. Customers often treat it as the figure they expect to pay. Print Quote and Email Quote, with a Valid For period, suit work you can define clearly.
An estimate is a bit different. It is only an estimate, not a quote: the customer should know the price could change after inspection, extra parts or extra labour. Print Estimate and Email Estimate use that wording so the paperwork is honest when the job is not fully known yet. Read the dedicated workshop estimates page.
We built Mechanic Manager so motor mechanics do not need a separate diary, invoicing program, stock spreadsheet and accounting package. Quotes and estimates work in the same motor workshop management system as job cards, parts, tyres, service history, customer reminders and GST. Convert either document to a job card or invoice without retyping lines.
