Getting Started: Repair Order Creation

After starting a new Repair Order in MaxxTraxx, when an RO is created with a customer, a vehicle, and at least one authorized labor job in MaxxTraxx, it’s pushed to AutoVitals and will appear on the Today’s Vehicle Page (TVP). AutoVitals receives the repair orders details with associated customer and vehicle information.

The following information is required:

1. Customer Name
2. Vehicle Year, Make, and Model
3. At least 1 authorized Labor line

How to Send Information from AutoVitals to MaxxTraxx

Install SmartFlow Add-on

First, be sure to install the SmartFlow Add-on to each workstation that will be utilizing this integration. The link to install the Add-on can be found in your Today’s Vehicle Page's (TVP) dropdown menu:

Transferring Information

On the Today’s Vehicle Page (TVP) in AutoVitals, there is a button on the Work Order header to send information back to MaxxTraxx:

• UPDATE SF ADD-ON: will push all of the information available, including vehicle information back to MaxxTraxx (see more detail in the section below)

Note: This button must be clicked to send information back to MaxxTraxx. Information will not send automatically to avoid changes to the work order happening without the Service Advisor’s knowledge.

Supported 2-Way Integration Information

Summary

• Job Information (JOB button)
  • Customer-facing notes and photos
• Estimate Information (EST button)
  • Configured canned job recommendations
  • Customer-facing notes and photos
• Inspection Information (INSP button)
  • Link to inspection results
• Vehicle Information (INSP button)
  • VIN
  • License plate
  • Odometer In

Job Information

When the JOB button is clicked, a new Reason for Service will be created in MaxxTraxx containing customer-facing notes and a URL for any photos or videos on approved labor lines. This will only happen if there are image(s) on the Job.

Estimate Information

If you have your MaxxTraxx canned jobs integrated with your inspection sheet, those canned jobs can be sent back to the repair order which can greatly decrease estimating time if utilized correctly.

When the EST is clicked, any canned jobs that were selected as recommended actions on the inspection in AutoVitals will be added to the RO in MaxxTraxx. This will also send over:

• Inspection topic
• Customer-facing notes
• A link to photos or videos

Note: A canned job is labor in MaxxTraxx, not a Job Kit

Inspection Information

After the Service Advisor clicks the INSP button via the SmartFlow Add-on, a new Reason for Service titled "Inspection Results" will be added to the RO in MaxxTraxx. This will contain a link to the inspection result and the name of the Technician who performed the inspection. 

Vehicle Information

After the technician has completed the inspection on the AutoVitals.X mobile application, the URL for the inspection can be sent back to MaxxTraxx along with the vehicle information.

Tablet

From the Autovitals.X mobile application, the Technician can easily gather vehicle-specific information from the home screen:

1. Press the VIN button to open the camera and scan the VIN tag of the vehicle and this will automatically add the VIN as well as trim level, engine, and drivetrain options
2. Press the ENTER ODO button to enter the IN mileage
3. Press the Plate button to manually enter the license plate 

Today's Vehicle Page

Once this information is gathered, you will be able to see this information on the Repair Order on your TVP:

After the Service Advisor clicks the INSP button via the SmartFlow Add-on, the following information will be pushed to MaxxTraxx:

• VIN
• License
• Odometer in

Note: If any values are empty, or different in MaxxTraxx, they will be updated to the value that has been entered in AutoVitals. The VIN may need to be decoded in MaxxTraxx after it’s been updated.
