AutoChain
Job Management

Create, track and close every job, nothing slips through.

A job card that lives on paper or in a basic spreadsheet is a liability — it gets lost, it has no history and it tells you nothing once the car leaves the forecourt. Every job in AutoChain is a living record. It starts with a VRM lookup that pulls the vehicle's full details and DVSA MOT history in seconds. From there, you assign a technician, attach parts, log labour hours, add photos and leave notes. Everything is time-stamped and auditable. When the job is done, a single click converts it to an invoice. The history stays attached to the vehicle forever, so the next time that car comes in you know exactly what was done, when and by whom.

How it works

Up and running in minutes

No training course needed. Built for busy garages.

  1. Enter the reg, get the vehicle

    Type the registration plate and AutoChain fetches make, model, colour, fuel type and MOT history from DVLA and DVSA in under a second.

  2. Assign and log work

    Add technicians, labour lines, parts and notes. Attach photos of damage, advisories or completed work directly to the job card.

  3. Track status with one click

    Move jobs through Booked → In Progress → Ready → Complete with a single click. Everyone sees the update instantly.

  4. Convert to invoice

    When the job is closed, convert it to a VAT-ready invoice in one click. All parts and labour carry over automatically — no re-entering anything.

Why it matters

The real impact on your garage

  1. Full audit trail on every vehicle

    Every job, part, note and photo stays attached to the vehicle record permanently — invaluable when a customer queries previous work.

  2. No double entry

    VRM lookup, customer autofill and one-click invoice conversion mean the same data is never typed twice.

  3. MOT history at your fingertips

    DVSA advisories surface automatically when you open a job, so your technician knows what to look for before they lift the bonnet.

  4. Photos protect you in disputes

    Attach before-and-after photos to any job. If a customer ever questions what was done, you have dated photographic evidence attached to the job card.

  5. Faster technician handovers

    Everything the next technician needs — vehicle history, notes, photos and parts — is on the job card. No verbal briefings, no guesswork.

  6. Build a complete vehicle history

    Every car that comes through your garage accumulates a permanent record. That history is a selling point when customers trust you to maintain their vehicle long-term.
