Software for computer repair owners

A repair ticket needs a business trail.

The person dropping off a laptop wants to know what happens next. Capture the reported problem, the work you agree to perform and the person approving the expense. Microtra helps organize that business conversation while diagnostics and repair remain with your technical tools.

The everyday details

You know the work.
The admin adds up.

The reported fault is not the diagnosis

An intermittent shutdown, a cracked display and a slow startup lead to different work. Keep the customer's description distinct from your findings so an initial intake note does not become an unintended promise about the repair.

Approval arrives after investigation

A replacement part may change the cost or make repair less attractive. If approval is buried in a personal conversation, the technician can be left wondering whether to order the part or whether the customer has agreed to proceed.

Accessories need deliberate intake

Chargers, adapters and external drives can arrive with a machine. Record what you accept through your intake process, without putting passwords or private files into ordinary business notes shared with the team.

Parts and bench time tell different stories

A small component can require substantial investigation and fitting. An invoice that lists only the replacement part conceals the labor, while a generic repair description makes the customer ask again what the service included.

How Microtra helps

Keep the business connected.

Use the tools that fit your day, with your records ready on your phone or on the web.

Keep the client and scope together

Save the contact and job notes for the reported symptoms, agreed work and practical pickup arrangements. Other uses Job and Client, with linked records off. It does not provide a specialist device intake or diagnostic system.

Explain the estimate before buying parts

Use distinct line items for assessment, approved labor and replacement components. Update the estimate when the plan changes, then share the final invoice PDF through your device. Obtain approval through your established communication process.

Account for bench labor

Start a job timer or enter time manually for diagnosis, fitting and agreed setup work. Review those entries before billing so interrupt-driven bench work does not disappear between deliveries, telephone calls and equipment pickups.

Make replacement spending visible

Enter component purchases and business expenses with receipt photos. Stock starts off in Other; switch it on in Modules & terms before using stock records for parts. The app does not identify compatible hardware or assess part quality.

A day in the life

From the first quote to paid.

  1. Receive the equipment carefully

    Discuss the fault and agree what the first stage includes. Follow your own intake, consent and data handling procedures, including how accessories are identified and how any needed access is provided securely.

  2. Assess and request approval

    Use your technical tools to investigate the reported problem. Explain the proposed repair and update the business estimate before ordering a component or carrying out work outside the originally agreed assessment.

  3. Keep a usable labor record

    Enter time and practical job notes as the work proceeds. Avoid private customer data and credentials in those notes. Document testing through the procedures suitable for the device and repair.

  4. Prepare the collection conversation

    Check the invoice against approved work and explain the supplied service. Share the PDF from your device, record payment received elsewhere and agree any remaining collection arrangements directly with the customer.

A few useful answers

Questions from computer repair owners.

Will Microtra diagnose a faulty laptop?

No. It organizes general jobs, estimates, time and invoices. Hardware tests, malware investigation, backup checks and repair verification need appropriate technical tools and procedures outside Microtra.

Does it store a linked record for each computer?

Other begins with linked records off and does not supply a specialist computer record type. You can write useful job descriptions, while keeping device intake and sensitive technical information within the system and procedures you choose for them.

Can labor and parts appear separately on the invoice?

Yes. Create clear descriptions and enter the relevant quantities and prices for the work you agreed. Review approval and completed work yourself; the app does not decide which diagnostic effort is billable.

Is customer file storage part of this workflow?

Microtra is not a backup or customer file recovery service. Keep private files, passwords and recovery material out of ordinary business notes and follow your professional process for access, consent, storage and return.
