AutoChain
Parts & Stock

Know what you have. Order what you need. Link it to the job.

Ordering a part that's already on the shelf, or discovering mid-job that you're out of something you thought you had — both cost you time and make your garage look disorganised. AutoChain's stock management keeps a live count of every part you hold. When levels drop below your threshold, you're alerted before you run out. Raise a purchase order to any supplier — not just a locked catalogue — directly from AutoChain and attach it to the relevant job. When parts are used on a job they're automatically deducted from stock and added to the invoice. No double-entry, no manual reconciliation, no guesswork.

How it works

Up and running in minutes

No training course needed. Built for busy garages.

  1. Add your parts catalogue

    Build your stock list with part numbers, descriptions, cost prices and selling prices. Import from a CSV or add parts as you order them.

  2. Set low-stock thresholds

    Tell AutoChain the minimum quantity you want to hold for each part. It will alert you when stock falls below that level.

  3. Raise purchase orders

    Create a PO to any supplier from within AutoChain. No locked catalogue — order from whoever gives you the best price and lead time.

  4. Attach parts to jobs

    When a technician uses a part, it is deducted from stock and added to the job invoice automatically. No separate stock adjustment needed.

Why it matters

The real impact on your garage

  1. No more mid-job stockouts

    Low-stock alerts mean you reorder before you run out, not after a technician has already discovered the shelf is empty.

  2. Order from any supplier

    You're not locked into a single catalogue. Order from whoever has the part at the right price and AutoChain tracks it all the same.

  3. Automatic invoicing

    Parts attached to jobs flow straight onto the invoice with the correct selling price — no manual line entries, no omissions.

  4. Know your parts margin

    Cost price and selling price are tracked for every part, so you can see exactly where your margin is coming from and spot anything being sold below cost.

  5. Reduce capital tied up in overstock

    Visibility of what you actually use means you stop over-ordering slow-moving parts and free up cash that's currently sitting on a shelf.

  6. One system for buying and selling

    Purchase orders, stock levels and job invoicing all live in the same place. No separate spreadsheet, no stock system that doesn't talk to your job cards.
