How to do in Nitro what you do every day in the workshop: step by step, on screenshots from the app.
Getting started
Getting started: account, company and workshop
Signing up, company details, workshop hours and rate, mechanics: what to set in the first few minutes so you can take in your first car right away.
Team and roles: administrator and mechanic
What the owner, an administrator and a mechanic each see, and where to change a person’s role and working hours.
Orders
The dashboard: the workshop’s day on one screen
Today’s orders, cars in the workshop, missing parts and each mechanic’s plan: where to start the day.
Taking a car in and opening an order: start on your phone
The client, the vehicle from a VIN scan and notes taken by the car; at intake, the mileage, damage and a printable handover protocol. The date, mechanic and parts can follow later.
Handling an order: statuses, parts and labour
From the client’s approval to the invoice: changing an order’s status, adding parts and labour, marking parts as ordered and finishing the job.
The calendar: order dates and mechanics
Day, week and month views, the mechanic filter, status colours and a new order straight from a free slot.
Parts from wholesalers: the Chrome extension and CSV import
A wholesaler basket straight into the order, with the Chrome extension or a CSV file from Inter Team, Inter Cars or Auto Partner.
Clients and vehicles
How to add a client
A private person or a company with a tax ID: where to add a client, which fields matter and how to fetch company details from the GUS register in one click.
How to add a vehicle
Scan or type the VIN and Nitro recognises the make and model. Where to add a vehicle, which fields are required and what can wait.
Reminders: when to call a client
Nitro tells you which clients are due for an oil change, with their phone number and the date of the last service.
Air conditioning
Billing
Invoices and KSeF: from an order to a sent invoice
Setting up KSeF, an invoice from an order or on its own, sending it to KSeF, statuses and marking it paid.
Receipts and fiscal printers
A receipt from an order, a tax ID on the receipt, and connecting a Novitus or Elzab printer, over the network or USB.
Revenue: what the workshop earned
Labour, parts and the margin on parts from completed orders, for a month, a year or any date range.
Settings
Workshop and company settings
Logo, address, hourly rate, margin, company details, the bank account for invoices and notifications: what goes where.
Prices and the service catalogue
Your rate, the margin on parts, rounding, and ready labour items you add to an order in one click.
Your workshop’s website
A website for your workshop with a description, services, prices and contact details. We set it up, and you edit the content.
