Keeping track of employee performance allows you and your employees to grow the business together. Using these reports opens up the doors to communication, growth, leadership, and with the difficulty of finding the right staff, these reports are more important than ever.
It is possible to identify whether technicians are properly using DVI inspections or if a service advisor could benefit from some training by using a service advisor close ratio, which should be 50% or higher. You can identify trends in the shop with the technician and service advisor reports so you can make the necessary adjustments or get an employee to assist and lead you.
In the your Employee Reports, you can now measure real time car count and sales amount per service writer. This will allow you to measure performance and track your weekly sales goals.
The Reports section is located on the left navigation menu and has multiple types of real time service writer reporting:
- Job Board + Posted Real Time Reporting - This report will show data for repair orders on your active job board as well as any posted repair orders within the time frame selected.
- Job Board Real Time Reporting - This report will show data for repair orders on your active job board only.
- Posted Real Time Reporting - This Report will show data for only posted repair orders.
- Jobs Created Real Time Reporting - This report will show data for the amount of jobs created within the time frame selected.
