Use AI to instantly create a prioritized parts order list from multiple repair orders in your queue.
When you've got five or six cars on the lift and you need to order parts for all of them, writing up a consolidated parts request eats up time you don't have. Instead of flipping through work orders and jotting down part numbers manually, feed AI your repair list and let it organize everything into a clean, prioritized order you can send to your supplier in one shot. This turns a 15-minute admin task into a 2-minute copy-paste.

“Act as an experienced auto shop parts coordinator. I'm going to give you a list of vehicles currently in my shop and what each one needs. Create a single consolidated parts order list organized by priority (urgent repairs first, then routine maintenance). For each part, include: vehicle year/make/model, part description, quantity needed, and why it's needed. Make it easy for my parts supplier to read and fill quickly. Here's what I'm working on: - 2018 Honda Civic: front brake pads and rotors, cabin air filter - 2015 Ford F-150: oil change (6 quarts 5W-20), oil filter, serpentine belt - 2020 Toyota Camry: alternator, battery - 2017 Chevy Silverado: all four shocks, alignment kit - 2019 Nissan Altima: transmission fluid flush (needs 12 quarts), transmission filter Format this as a clean list I can email or text to my supplier right now.”
