VISIT ESTIMATE Vehicle stay: 3 – 5 hours Expected work start: 9:15 AM Brake pad inspection may need advisor review before a completion time can be confirmed. ## A booking is only useful when the workshop has the right context Generic appointment tools stop at a name and a time. Automotive teams also need to know which vehicle is coming in, what work is requested, how the customer plans to arrive, and what can responsibly be communicated before an advisor has reviewed the job. ### Vehicle details arrive late Registration, make, model, or VIN gets chased after the booking — slowing down job prep. ### Arrival plans stay unclear The team doesn't know whether the customer will wait, drop off, use a shuttle, or need a loan car. ### Expectations become promises Rough estimates are communicated as commitments before the work is properly understood. Automotive workflow ## Automotive context, built into the booking flow ### Customer-linked vehicles Find a customer's existing vehicle or add a new one during booking using year, make, model, registration, and optional VIN. ### Service-aware bookings Book individual services, service packages, and relevant add-ons against the selected vehicle. ### Configurable arrival plans Offer only the options your service centre supports: Wait on site, Drop off, Courtesy shuttle, or Loan car. ### Responsible visit guidance Show a service-based vehicle-stay range and expected work-start time where supported. Uncertain work is routed to advisor review instead of a fabricated completion promise. ### Workshop-ready appointment views Vehicle, registration, arrival plan, vehicle-stay estimate, and expected work-start timing stay visible to the team after booking. ## From enquiry to an operationally ready appointment 1 ### Identify the customer and vehicle Select a linked vehicle or capture it while making the booking. 2 ### Choose the work Add services, a package, and any supported extras. 3 ### Agree on arrival Record whether the customer will wait, drop off, use a courtesy shuttle, or request a loan car. 4 ### Set honest expectations Share available visit guidance or route uncertain work to advisor review. 5 ### Give the team the full picture Carry the automotive context into the appointment view and service operation. ## More than an automotive booking form Automotive support is part of Newtells' Autonomous Service Operations OS: a connected operating layer designed to help service businesses capture opportunities, run the work, turn completed service into cash, and create the next visit. Enquiry Booking Service delivery Completion proof Invoice & payment Next visit Product boundaries ## Designed for responsible automation Vehicle and automotive workflows are enabled only for configured automotive service-centre organisations.
