Workflow blueprint

Garage job cards should preserve the line between a customer symptom, technician observation and authorised repair

A source-linked job card, not diagnosis, lift inspection, technician certification, repair guarantee, roadworthiness test or environmental approval.

Capture vehicle and customer claims, version estimates, constrain authorisation, connect parts and work notes, and hand over with visible test and invoice sources.

TL;DR — Capture vehicle and customer claims, version estimates, constrain authorisation, connect parts and work notes, and hand over with visible test and invoice sources.
1

Record intake without diagnosing

Preserve supplied vehicle identity, mileage, customer words, visible condition, requested work and custody acknowledgement.

2

Version inspection and estimate

Connect technician observations, estimate lines, exclusions, expiry, rejected work and exact customer authorisation.

3

Trace parts and work reports

Relate part-source claims, substitutions, completed-task notes, newly discovered issues and revised approval limits.

4

Prepare test and collection handover

Keep test report, unresolved warning, return recommendation, customer collection, invoice source and dispute.

Page-specific decision aid

A vehicle identity, customer request, inspection report, estimate edition, authorisation, part claim, work note, test, handover and invoice source job card

The job card follows a brake-noise request through technician observations, estimate approval, a new component finding, revised authorisation and post-work test report. Collection and invoice evidence close the commercial flow without declaring the vehicle roadworthy.

  • A customer symptom is not a diagnosis.
  • Estimate approval is not unlimited repair authority.
  • A finished work note does not prove the vehicle is roadworthy.
Scope first

What Codeblix would confirm before implementation

This page is an operational blueprint. The final workflow, screens, permissions and integrations depend on your current process and agreed implementation scope.

  • Customer symptoms stay verbatim and attributable
  • Estimate revisions never expand approval silently
  • Part and waste sources remain linked
  • Vehicle identity diagnosis technician competence lift safety part authenticity repair quality roadworthiness waste compliance custody charge and tax excluded
