We recently released ASW 10.73.20 as an update. You will see a number of new features and buttons, especially including CARFAX.. Essentially we have implemented the latest features, including the auto enrollment for myCARFAX a powerful, and informative, service for you and your clients. A single button will allow your clients to start receiving service notices ( with your shop info ), recall notices, service bulletins, access their history online, and more … and its FREE to you, and to your customers. More information will be forthcoming on this and other features.
When you enter a Workorder, you will see a new button. It’s a Shield, on the General tab, that says “Analysis”. Check it out. It’s a solid summary of critical information all in one place. If you have been using it, you will see that the information was expanded. There is more info about the client and vehicle, and along with PM notices, Inspection Checklist notices, Recommendations notes, we’ve added the CARFAX service history for the vehicle. Do check it out.
With all of this completed, we will now be placing updates on HOLD until perhaps mid-september. The reason is that recent changes to Windows, and other needs, have made it wise to tune and perhaps modify areas of our workorder code. There are over 10,000 lines of code. We have found some quirks on some systems ( but certainly not all ), and have seen some things moving slower than we’d like. So these are being addressed by improvements in the code. We will also be doing extensive testing.
During this period, feel free to email or call for support issues. If you had noticed anything unusual, even if it only happened a couple of times, please email support@masterlinksoftware.com with your observations. This is the perfect time for us to know about them since we are immersed in that code.
Thanks for being a part of the team at MasterLink.
