Quote up front
The customer approves the quote for materials and labour via a link.
Materials
Leather, fabric and foam are deducted from stock on the work order.
Actual time
Compare production hours with the estimate in the quote.

Work order with vehicle
Number plate, VIN, make, model and mileage on every work order, with the vehicle's full history in one place.
