About the Mechanic Master File

Why:

The Mechanic Master File contains a record for each mechanic registered at the selected branch. These records contain information such as the date they joined the dealer, their usual shift pattern and pay rate (used to determine job costs), the department where they work and their areas of expertise.

 

Where:

The Mechanic view lists all mechanics whose details are held in the Mechanic Master File. Individual records can be opened for viewing or amendments as well as deletion. This view is also where manual time recording is performed.

 

When a mechanic record is opened a Mechanic Maintenance window is displayed. Here you will find information on the mechanic's shift pattern and pay rate, the date they joined the dealer, the department where they work and an indication as to their skills and proficiencies. It is in this window that the mechanic's access code is maintained. This access code is used by the mechanic for online time recording. A Mechanic Bar Code List can be printed from the mechanic view by selecting Reports > Print Mechanic Bar Code List from the Menu bar.
