Additional Product Information
Motive Power 1.2.x is an ideal product for small businesses doing mechanical service and repair. The primary users are automotive and truck repair facilities. It is suitable for other time and materials companies like bicycle shops, motorcycle shops, outdoor power and equipment shops and boat repair facilities. It learns every job, part, and sublet ever done and makes it available for easy re-use. Any job that has been done will appear automatically the next time that same job needs to be done on that same equipment. Any job done is available as a starting point for any other job that needs to be done. The time clock is built in and allows for both real time capture and hand entry of time spent on a job by job basis.
Each work order is organized as a series of jobs. Each job has a job description, parts list, sublets needed (if any)and timeclock. Work order totals show separate totals and profit margins for each job.
Job scoring gives you a way to guarantee proper profits margins on each component of each job.
Motive Power can send reminders as services become due and has an interface to a third party reminder service for customers who prefer that approach.
