Can I track parts across shelves, bays, and storage areas?

Yes. Parts can be organized by shelf, bay, or storage area, so advisors and technicians can see where stock sits before they promise or start work.

Can parts be connected to job cards and invoices?

Yes. Parts used on a job stay tied to the job card, vehicle history, invoice, and job costing, so stock movement and margin are not rebuilt later from spreadsheets.

Can I manage suppliers and purchase orders?

autoGMS helps garages keep supplier details, lead times, pricing, and purchase orders close to the inventory workflow, so reordering does not live in a separate spreadsheet.

Can I see part margins and stock value in reports?

Yes. Inventory data connects to reporting so owners can review stock value, slow-moving parts, part margins, and how parts affect job profitability.

Parts, suppliers, stock, and margins

Garage Inventory Management Software

Built for auto repair shops that need live stock counts, supplier and PO tracking, job costing, invoices, and margin visibility in one workflow.

Live stock counts|Supplier and PO tracking|Job costing and margins

From Stock Check to Job Card to Invoice

autoGMS connects inventory to the real workshop flow: check availability, reserve or use the part, carry the cost into the invoice, and see the margin in reports.

See Parts Inventory in autoGMS

Availability before approval

Check whether the part is on hand before the advisor confirms work or promises a turnaround time.

Usage tied to the job

When a part is used, it stays connected to the job card, vehicle history, and stock movement.

Margin visible after billing

Parts costs flow into invoices and reports so managers can see what the job actually earned.

Inventory Problems Show Up as Delays and Lost Margin

When stock counts, supplier notes, and part costs live outside the job workflow, the damage shows up later: delayed cars, rushed orders, wrong margins, and cash sitting in the wrong parts.

A technician reaches for a part that the system says exists, but the shelf is empty.

Product workflow proof

From Part to Job to Invoice

autoGMS is not just a stock list. Inventory sits inside the same workflow your advisors, technicians, and managers already use to move work through the garage.

Step 1

Check stock first

Service advisors can see whether the right part is available before promising a repair time.

Step 2

Add parts to jobs

Technicians use parts against the work order, so stock movement stays connected to the vehicle.

Step 3

Carry cost to invoices

Parts, cost, markup, and customer price stay tied together instead of being rebuilt later.

Step 4

Report stock margin

Owners can see which parts move, which ones tie up cash, and what each job actually earned.

Manage Every Part From Shelf to Invoice

Set stock rules, manage supplier purchasing, track cost and margin, then connect every part back to the job card.

01Stock Control

Set reorder levels

Min and max levels per partSet a reorder floor and a ceiling for every item, so you never run dry on a fast mover or over-buy a slow one.
Alerts before jobs stallThe moment a part dips below its threshold, you're warned — not when a technician reaches for an empty shelf.
Live counts across locationsReal quantities update as parts move, across shelves, bays, and storage areas, so what you see is what you have.
Overstock guardrailsCeilings flag parts piling up faster than they sell, before working capital gets trapped in dead stock.

02Supplier Mgmt

Manage suppliers and POs

One record per supplierContacts, lead times, and price history live together instead of scattered across inboxes and spreadsheets.
Purchase orders from low stockTurn a low-stock alert straight into a PO with quantities pre-filled — no re-keying part numbers.
Performance you can compareRank suppliers on price, delivery speed, and reliability before you commit the next order.
Backup sources on fileKeep a second and third source for critical parts, so one supplier's delay never stops a job.

03Cost Analysis

Track part margins

Value and turnover at a glanceTrack what your stock is worth and how fast it cycles, so capital keeps moving instead of sitting on a shelf.
Margin by partSee markup and profit on every part to lean into the money-makers and reprice the ones quietly losing you money.
Dead-stock detectionSurface slow movers while there's still time to discount, return, or stop reordering them.
Tied into business analyticsFeed parts data into your wider reporting to connect inventory to revenue and overall profit.

04Integration

Connect parts to job cards

Tied to the booking systemParts link straight into the booking and job workflow, so stock and schedule stay in sync.
Automatic deductionStock drops the moment a technician logs a part to a job — no manual counts, no end-of-week reconciliation.
Per-vehicle historyEvery part fitted is recorded against the customer's vehicle, ready for warranty claims and future work.
Visible inside job cardsTechnicians see exactly which parts a job needs and what's already been used, right on the card.
