Every feature, step by step
How to run your day in Garage Desk — from booking a car in to getting paid. Fourteen short chapters with real screenshots, the same guide that's built into the app.
Getting started & the Home dashboard
Your morning briefing — money in, what's due today, and one-tap shortcuts to everything you create.
Read chapterCustomers & vehicles
Add a customer and their car once and they're reused forever — with full history attached.
Read chapterJobs — the heart of the app
The work order for one visit — work to do, parts and labour, moving through clear stages until the car is handed back.
Read chapterEstimates
Quote the work before you start, then turn an approved estimate into a job or invoice in one tap.
Read chapterInvoices & payments
Bill the customer, share a branded PDF, and record the money when it lands.
Read chapterParts & counter sales
Sell a part over the counter — no job needed. Ring it up, take the money, and stock adjusts itself.
Read chapterInventory
Know what's on the shelf and what's running low — and let parts price themselves onto jobs and invoices.
Read chapterInspections
Digital vehicle health checks — findings, photos and a damage diagram, shared with the customer.
Read chapterOnline bookings
Let customers request a slot online — requests land in one inbox for you to accept or decline.
Read chapterAccounts & reports
What's outstanding, what's overdue, and what you've actually collected — over any date range.
Read chapterReminders & calendar
MOT and service reminders go out automatically; the calendar shows what's coming up.
Read chapterSearch, notifications & messages
Find anything, stay on top of what's happened, and keep customer conversations in one thread.
Read chapterSettings & your garage profile
Set the app up once so every document looks right and works the way you do.
