Integrations: CARFAX®, QuickBooks®, Stripe® and SMS
Your shop app should talk to the tools you already use. AutoSoft Online does, so you enter the work once.
CARFAX®
Every service you invoice on a vehicle with a VIN is reported to CARFAX® and appears in that vehicle's service history. Your shop gets the credit for the work, and car buyers see it.
How it works
Turn on CARFAX® reporting in Settings, automatic or manual.
Invoice as usual.
With automatic reporting, the service is sent to CARFAX® 48 hours after invoicing; within that window, corrections are still picked up.
Once sent, a report can't be changed from AutoSoft Online.
QuickBooks®
Invoices, payments, credit memos and voids go to your QuickBooks Online® company on their own, and later changes follow them. You pick which accounts each item posts to, once.
How it works
Connect your QuickBooks Online® company.
Map your accounts and tax code.
Work as usual: documents are sent every night, or right away with Sync now, and each invoice shows its QuickBooks® status.
Works with QuickBooks Online® for the U.S.
Stripe®
Connect your own Stripe® account and take cards online or at the counter. Payment links go out by email or text; when the payment goes through, the invoice is marked paid and the receipt goes out.
How it works
Connect your Stripe® account from Settings.
Send a payment link or take the card at the counter.
The invoice is marked paid and the receipt goes out.
SMS
Text estimates, payment links, receipts, credit memos and next-service reminders from your shop's own number. We register your shop with the carriers for you, and your customers' opt-in is recorded on the estimate they sign.
How it works
Sign up for texting in Settings; approval takes 3 to 5 business days.
Check the text box when you send.
The customer gets the text with a link to the PDF.
Available in the U.S. and Canada.
