Wanted to see if anyone else is using Shopkey Pro SE and Quickbooks? Basically they want me to take the parts that are suggested in Shopkey and put them in to Quickbooks. I haven't found an easy way to do this other then just type everything else out in Quickbooks. The customer gets the printout from Quickbooks with the parts listing. Anyone else out there using Shopkey Prof SE and Quickbooks at the same time??? Thanks for your help.

Integrator is available now for Manager SE. I just upgraded a few weeks ago. I have used it for many years with 5.9. It imports all payments and invoices from manager and eliminates manual entry of them. I am not sure about the inventory functions as I don't have Manager Plus with inventory. I am not sure that I understand your post in reference to using both at the same time. I use Manager because it is designed specifically for automotive repair business with many features for that type of business. Mitchell does not do accounting that's where QuickBooks is needed. Customer invoices are printed from Manager. Any questions you have I'm sure I could answer for you.

Yes, you got the picture. Is there an ongoing cost to using the integrator application? If so, how much do you pay per month? This is great as I really appreciate the info from everyone! Oh, what version of Quickbooks are you using?

I am wondering if it will work with Quickbooks online. I don't have a standalone version because I have found that its much easier to be able to use the online version. Updates done constantly and I can access from anywhere. My CPA has the login as well and helps me with the check book reconciling every month.

My guess is the integrator piece would not work with QBOnline because QBO lives in the cloud and not on the PC. But I would need to confirm that with the company who makes the integration software.

Ok, so I did talk to their tech support and Quickbooks Online is not compatible with integrator. QB has to reside on the desktop. Again, thanks to everyone who responded!

      A recent study, done by Harvard Business School, concluded that the real problem with attracting and retaining employees has more to do with the workplace environment, not pay or benefits. While the study did find that an adequate pay plan and offering an attractive benefits package did help with recruiting and retention, it’s not enough to satisfy the needs of employees, especially those of front-line workers.
      The study also stated that in 2021, many companies were convinced that giving raises, sign-on bonuses, and other perks would solve the worker shortage problem and prevent people from quitting. However, this strategy did not work. So, what does work regarding attracting quality people and keeping them employed?
      Essentially, it all comes down to the culture of your company.  Management: do all it can to consider the individual needs of your employees. Your employees want to feel that they have a voice, that their opinion counts, and that their role in your company is both respected and recognized. Yes, pay and a great benefits package will go a long way toward making your employees feel secure, but that’s only financial security. People want more than money.
      To attract and keep top talent requires creating a company that people feel proud to work for. You need to reach the hearts and minds of your employees. Become a leader that people are enthusiastic about working for. You want your employees bragging to their friends and family that your shop is a great place to work!
      Step one to attracting and retaining quality employees: Create an amazing workplace environment for your employees!  Trust me, happy employees make happy shop owners too!

      Dashboards are a valuable tool for businesses as they provide a quick and easy way to visualize and analyze key data and metrics in real time. Hear from two shop owners as they discuss how dashboards improve decision making, increase productivity, and enhance collaboration and accountability with your team.

      Show Notes:
      Numbers without dimensions are hard to analyze. Line graphs show trends as a picture. Where does there need to be more improvement? What caused a ‘dip?’ Using statistics helps find the right "WHY" when looking to solve a problem. Competitive nature for employees Creating a graph for daily production on completed hours for technicians Examples of what to watch: Gross income, the value of services delivered (closed repairs), ARO, gross profit dollars, new customers, number of inspections, quality inspection, ARO, average repair estimates, and close percentage (60-75%). Be careful having the close rate too high/too low. New customers- you need front office staff to have a proper orientation for a new customer. Growth mode- as growth increases, also increase your marketing.
