Expert Accounting Options with ARI

Expense Management

Create detailed expense reports

ARI comes with a powerful expense tracking feature that allows you to log any type of expense your business incurs.

Does your auto repair business incur expenses such as employee salaries, parts, rent, electricity, transportation, maintenance, tools, supplies, or any other general expenses? Then rest assured you can log them with ARI.

With this auto repair software, you can create expenses for both vendors and employees. Say you have to pay salaries, then you can log that expense in your ARI accounting. If you have to pay your electric bills or Internet, then you can enter your vendor’s data so you can create recurring expense reports!

Purchase Management

Create, manage, and send purchase orders to your car parts suppliers

Purchasing parts is a crucial task for any auto shop accounting software. That is why we made sure you have all the tools necessary to keep a close eye on your business purchases.

Add parts to your purchase order, set a date, price, and quantity, and then send that purchase order to your supplier via email! At that point, the status of the order will move from Created to Receiving and the system will allow you to verify your purchase before confirming.

After you verified that all your ordered parts have arrived, you can confirm the order. This will change the status to Completed and also automatically update the price and quantities in your parts inventory.

Income Tracking

Keep a close eye on your shop’s income

Worried about missing due invoices? Are you always using your calculator to figure out how much money your auto repair business has made last month? Forget about all that. With ARI, you can easily monitor your income and make sure your auto repair business stays profitable!

As with any respectable auto repair software, ARI offers a clear way to track your client’s due invoices. This way, you can easily notify your customers when their car repair payment is due.

Tracking your shop’s income and profit is essential for any auto repair business. With ARI you can check your individual income per invoice and even view profit generated from parts sale or labor costs!
