What does 4mygarage do for an auto service shop in Romania?
It keeps a file for every vehicle you service, runs work orders with labour and parts lines through five stages from reception to handover, works out which customers are due for their next service, and reports on order value, cars serviced and average order value from your own work orders.
How does the vehicle file work?
The plate is the key. It is stored in capitals without spaces or dashes, so every way of typing it lands on the same vehicle. The file keeps make, model, year, VIN, last mileage and the owner's name, and a plate typed on a new work order creates the file if it does not exist yet.
What are the stages of a work order?
Scheduled, received, in progress, ready and delivered. The reception board moves an order one stage at a time, the work-order screen lets you set any stage, and the received and delivered times are filled in when the order reaches them. Once an order is delivered it can no longer be edited.
How is the total of an order calculated?
Each line is labour or a part with a quantity and a unit price. The line total is quantity times price and the order total is the sum of its lines, stored in RON (lei). You can type lines by hand or pick parts from your parts list.
How do service reminders work?
For each active vehicle the next service is the scheduled date of its latest work order plus the interval in months you chose (six by default). The list is sorted by urgency and shows the plate, vehicle, customer name and last visit so your team knows whom to call. The product does not contact customers on its own.
Does it manage parts stock, message customers or issue invoices?
No to all three. Parts are lines on a work order, there is no stock level or minimum-stock alert, no SMS, WhatsApp or e-mail goes out to customers, and a work order is not a fiscal invoice. Invoices are issued in a separate tool such as 4invoices.
Which reports do I get?
Order value, cars serviced and average order value for the last 7, 30 or 90 days, order value by month over six months, the top operations by revenue, and the count of vehicles overdue or due in the next 30 days. All of it is computed from the work orders you entered.
Where is the Romanian version?
The Romanian site is at /ro. The English pages describe the same product for Romanian workshops that prefer to work in English.
