The demo is Pinecrest Auto Care, a made-up shop with sample customers, vehicles and work orders.

What it covers

Made for the service counter

  • The vehicle: year, make, model, color, VIN, plate, and odometer in and out, all typed in
  • Find a work order by its number, the customer, a phone number, the VIN (or its last digits) or the plate
  • The customer's concern, a drop-off check (OK, problem or not checked), and what was left in the vehicle
  • Parts from your stock or typed in, and labor by the hour at your shop's rate. Sales tax is on parts only
  • Your own service menu, like oil changes and tire rotations, one tap to add
  • The customer's OK: signed at the counter, or recorded by phone, text or email with who said yes
  • More work found later shows the new total and waits for the customer's OK again
  • Inspection findings, a printed work order on regular paper, and an invoice when it's paid

To be clear

What it doesn't do

Store OS keeps what your counter types in. It isn't connected to any vehicle or parts database.

  • VIN decoding or vehicle lookups
  • Labor time guides
  • Vehicle diagnostics or vehicle history reports
  • Parts supplier catalogs or ordering

Write a work order in the demo.

No sign-up. Nothing you do there is real.
