company's own flat-rate books in about one hour.
Of course Flat Rate Plus!™ gives you unparalleled
flexibility to customize inventory, repair tasks, markups, direct costs - almost
everything! Flat-Rate Plus! even gives you the ability to easily and automatically convert
all of your reports into the various formats used by today's finest word-processors,
databases, and spread-sheets.
Formats such as WordPerfect™, MS-Word™,
Access™, Excel™, Universal Rich Text and many others are supported. That's a
very powerful and useful feature.
We have included a comprehensive data base full of repair
and installation inventory items, repair tasks, and installation scenarios. Installations
include: furnace, air handler, evaporator coils, a/c units, heat pumps, humidifiers, air
filtration systems, water heaters and more.
Our technical support staff is available to assist you
with the installation and use of the program. We will include a complete User's Manual to
get you up and running in a hurry. It includes many useful tips on exactly how to set up a
flat-rate system in your dealership.
There are tips for your service technicians - even a
professionally designed sample invoice designed specifically for flat-rate service work.
When you're choosing a flat-rate software program,
remember that there is no other choice available that offers you the power, flexibility,
speed, ease-of-use, and professional support that you will find with Flat Rate
Plus!™.
There's no doubt about it! Go ahead and make the
comparison for yourself. We know that you will agree with us. . . Flat Rate Plus!™ is
simply the very best!
CAUTION: There are other software programs that will shut themselves off
after one year or whatever. They force you to pay again and again. In addition, if you make
customizations to the database, you cannot export that information into another program.
You may even lose the work that you did when you update their software each year. Before
you buy, please ask them!
