FAQ

Frequently asked questions about vehicle inspection

What is a Digital Vehicle Inspection (DVI)?
A Digital Vehicle Inspection is a paperless, app-based process where technicians document vehicle condition using a mobile device. Instead of paper checklists, technicians check off items, mark damage on a digital schematic, and capture photos — all within a single report that can be shared with the client instantly.
Can I create custom inspection templates in AutoSoftWay?
Yes. AutoSoftWay lets you create, edit, and save unlimited custom inspection templates. Build templates with the exact items your shop inspects, organize them into sections, and reuse them on any job. Templates can be tailored to vehicle type, service level, or any other criteria your shop needs.
Can technicians capture photos during inspections?
Yes. Technicians can attach multiple photos directly to each inspection using the AutoSoftWay mobile app. Photos can be attached to individual inspection items or to the overall report, and they are stored within the work order for future reference.
How does the digital vehicle schematic work?
The digital schematic shows a top-down view of the vehicle. Technicians can tap or click anywhere on the schematic to mark damage — circling or highlighting affected areas, adding notes, and colour-coding by severity. The result is a clear, visual damage map that clients can immediately understand.
How does vehicle inspection connect to work orders?
Inspection results integrate directly with AutoSoftWay work orders. When a technician flags an item as requiring attention, it can be converted into a work order line item instantly — eliminating duplicate data entry and ensuring nothing gets missed when writing estimates.
