Getting started

Everyone

Managers and mechanics

Everyone in your garage is either a Manager or a Mechanic. The role decides what they can change.

What everyone can do

  • See the schedule, jobs, customers, vehicles, invoices, services, parts and team.
  • Add notes to a job.
  • Add, caption, remove and send inspection photos and video.
  • Read their notifications.
  • Change their own name, photo, password and how the app looks.

What only managers can do

  • Add, edit, move and cancel jobs, including changing a job's status and dragging jobs on the schedule.
  • Add, edit and remove customers and services.
  • Add, edit, archive and restore parts.
  • Create, issue, email and mark invoices as paid.
  • Add, edit and deactivate team members.
  • Change the garage's settings.
  • Cancel or resume a paid plan.

The owner

The person who created the garage is a manager with an Owner badge. The owner can't be deactivated, and nobody can change their role.

Good to know

  • A mechanic can still see buttons like Add job on the lists. If they try to save, a message says only managers can do it.
  • On pages like the job page, the boxes are greyed out for mechanics, with a line saying only managers can change them.
  • Each article in this help centre is marked Everyone or Managers only.
  • Managers can change anyone's role except their own and the owner's.
