Recommendation list
Recommendation list
I'm trying to figure out the easiest way to print out a list of vehicles that came in about 60 days ago that had recommendations that weren't completed at the time so we can call and try to sell those items again. I'd like it to be a list that me and my front counter assistant can work through together throughout the day/week and mark them off one by one when we're done. Are their any suggested methods, reports, or other ideas for this situation?

Re: Recommendation list
If you have Bolt On reports, you can run the Open Sub Estimate report (assuming you make a sub-estimate for each recommendation) by date range. It tags the creation date of the sub-estimate.
You can run one of the follow up reports in Manager and date range it as needed. Print the resulting letters. No phone numbers though.
If you are utilizing Bolt-On's invoice that features 'declined work', you can simply go through your copies of past invoices and tag anyone with a declined job. All pertinent data should be right on the invoice.
There may be more.....these come to mind quickly.

Re: Recommendation list
I don't see where you confirm you marked these Recommendations as printed? IF you didn't, then you should still be able to run a date ranged Followup effort to float these to the surface. Your options would include the actual letters (show recommendations) or printing a list (no details).motley06 wrote:I'm trying to figure out the easiest way to print out a list of vehicles that came in about 60 days ago that had recommendations that weren't completed at the time so we can call and try to sell those items again.

I'm thinking the letters might be best, as I can print them all out, put them in a binder of some sort, then throw them away one by one as we work through them

That or just browse them on screen; DON'T mark them as printed or your list is gone.motley06 wrote:I'm thinking the letters might be best, as I can print them all out, put them in a binder of some sort, then throw them away one by one as we work through them

Re: Recommendation list
You can also search recommendations through the calendar on the Message Manager screen. From there you can text a customer the reminder.

Re: Recommendation list
The next version of Manager SE you receive will export recommendations by date, you can also group, filter and sort the output.
