Top Reasons to Start Using Canned Jobs in Your Auto Repair Shop

3 Reasons Your Shop Needs Canned Jobs

Running an auto repair shop means juggling estimates, repeat services, and daily operations. One of the easiest ways to boost your shop’s productivity and consistency is by using Canned Jobs.

Here are three key reasons your auto repair shop should start using canned jobs today:

1. Save Time on Estimates

Canned jobs allow you to instantly add frequently performed services to estimates or invoices with just a few clicks. No need to re-enter parts, labor times, or pricing every single time. This drastically reduces the time spent creating estimates and speeds up the customer service process, especially during peak hours.

With AutoSoftWay:
You can save and reuse common jobs directly from the estimate. Whether it’s a standard brake service or a seasonal tire change, AutoSoftWay lets you apply these predefined jobs instantly, saving your team time and minimizing manual entry errors. Once a canned job is saved, it becomes a template within the system that technicians can access and use anytime, ensuring faster and more consistent service across the board.

2. Ensure Consistency and Accuracy

By using canned jobs, your pricing and labor times remain consistent across your team. This helps maintain profitability, prevents underquoting, and improves customer trust. It also ensures that your technicians know exactly what’s included in each job, eliminating confusion.

3. Train Staff Faster and Scale Easier

For growing shops or those with new technicians and service advisors, canned jobs make onboarding much easier. New staff can quickly learn the shop’s standard procedures and pricing without having to memorize every detail.

AutoSoftWay Makes It Scalable:
As your shop grows, AutoSoftWay’s canned job system grows with you. You can edit, organize, and categorize jobs to match your workflow, making it easy for your entire team to stay aligned, even across multiple locations.

Conclusion
Canned jobs aren’t just a convenience, they’re a strategic advantage. They help you save time, maintain consistency, and scale your business with confidence.
