Using the Change Vehicle PopUp

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

The Change Vehicle PopUp allows you to change the year, make, model, and engine for a customer. For example, you would need to do this if the license number and customer information stayed the same, but the vehicle changed.

Use the following steps to access the Change Vehicle PopUp:

  1. On the Enter Invoices-Invoicing screen, press [F2] to display the PopUp Menu at the bottom of the screen (see below). This menu can be accessed instantly at any time during the service.

  1. Press G to start the change vehicle process.
  2. You receive a warning message. Read it carefully and enter Y to continue or N to return to invoicing without making any changes.

  1. If the vehicle has any service history, you have the option of removing it. Enter Y to permanently delete all service history for this vehicle. Enter N to retain the service history.

  1. Select the vehicle year, make, model, engine, submodel, and drive type, if required. If there is only a single option for the engine, submodel, or drive type, it will be auto-selected for you. You may use the keyboard or mouse to select values and navigate between fields. You may also type partial or complete values in the fields to narrow down the options.
Note: At any time, click the Build Vehicle Manually option to manually create a vehicle that is not available in ESM. For more information, see Creating a Manual Vehicle for Vehicles prior to 1980 or Creating a Manual Vehicle for Vehicles not Currently in the ESM.

Note: This popup is only available at LubeSoft version 15.26 and above. On older versions, you will have the legacy ESM Vehicle Selection.
  1. After you finish selecting the new vehicle, click Save to return to the invoicing screen.
Note: You may click the Cancel button at any time to go back to the invoicing screen and keep the original vehicle.
