Dent count alone does not define the repair
Panel location, access, shape and material affect the professional assessment. A commercial estimate needs enough description to identify the agreed repair without pretending every dent is equivalent.
Software for paintless dent repair technicians
Keep the panel discussion with the vehicle's record.
Before reserving repair time, establish which panels and damage the customer has approved. Keep the business scope and vehicle appointment together while your inspection, repair techniques and specialist estimating process determine the work.

The everyday details
You know the work.
The admin adds up.
The owner and the billing contact can differ
A dealership, body shop or vehicle owner may arrange the work. Clear vehicle identification and billing preferences prevent the right repair from reaching the wrong account.
A revised scope needs a visible approval
Additional damage or restricted access may change what can be done. Keep the agreed revision with the job's administration rather than leaving the final invoice to explain a surprise.

Enter repair items, quantities and prices based on your own inspection and estimating method. Microtra does not calculate dent matrices, assess repairability or submit insurer claims; specialist decisions remain in your trade process.

Explore this featureA day in the life
From the first quote to paid.
Inspect before defining the scope
Identify the vehicle and panels through your professional assessment. Discuss access, repair expectations and any uncertainty before preparing the commercial estimate.
Obtain approval and reserve the visit
Put the agreed work into recognizable invoice or estimate lines. Confirm the service and appointment directly, identifying the person authorized to approve any later change.
Keep the repair and admin aligned
Perform the work through your trade process. If another area is requested, discuss approval first and update the commercial details rather than assuming it belongs in the original fee.
Finish the handoff and account
Review completed scope with the appropriate contact and share the invoice PDF. Record payment taken elsewhere and keep any further agreed attendance visible in the schedule.

Questions from paintless dent repair technicians.
Can this calculate a hail repair estimate automatically?
Microtra does not provide hail matrices, dent sizing calculations or insurer estimating tools. Inspect and price the repair through your established process, then enter the checked descriptions and amounts.
Which terms match the vehicle-based setup?
Mobile car wash uses Appointment, Customer and Vehicles, with linked records enabled. Stock starts off; turn it on in Modules & terms before using product counts or purchasing tools.
Can I keep dealership billing separate from the vehicle?
Maintain the billing contact and preferences on the customer account, with vehicle context in linked records. Check the invoice recipient and repair description before sharing the PDF.
Does it send the customer a payment link?
Pay links and card charging are coming soon. Share the document through your device, collect payment with the method you already use and record the amount received.
