Display Hours & Dollars

You have the option to hide the visibility of the hours and/or dollars shown for an entire department and on the RO cards. These totals are shown below the department header as well as on each RO card below the IN and OUT dates.

You can also decide on a per department basis, if the hours shown on an RO card and totaled in the header are just for specific areas like Frame, Body, Mechanical, and Paint.

---

To turn on or off the ability to see hours and dollars per department and RO card, go to the RO Functions menu at the top of the dashboard and select “System Set Up”. Click on the “Business Rules” tab in the upper right. The “Display Hours” tab will be the first section you see.

Calculate Hours Per “Metal” or “Refinish” #

By default, each department header will show all hours and dollar totals for the vehicles currently in that department. Additionally, each RO card will show all hours related to that specific vehicle. If, however, you only want to show the paint-related hours for the vehicles in the Paint department, then you adjust this setting in System Setup. Now the hours shown on the cards in the Paint column will only reflect the paint hours.

Step 1: #

In the dropdown menus under the “Hours” columns, select between the Frame, Body, Mechanical, and Paint options. There is no requirement to make a selection in each box. Typically, the Body department, for instance, would show hours for Frame, Body, and Mechanical.

Click the “Save” button to save your changes or the black “X” button to cancel your changes. Do this for every department that you want to change.
