Marlin GTX's Autotracker module provides key information about owners and their vehicles.
Autotracker can search for owners and vehicles by registration and surname, given name, mobile number or car make/model and even street name or suburb.
The Autotracker can be accessed by selecting Main > Enquiries > AutoTracker from the menu bar.
The AutoTracker window will open, enabling you to search for owners and vehicles, or specific transaction information.
When recording information in the planner, there will be times when the system will advise if you are updating an owner, adding an additional owner or creating a new owner, or updating a vehicle, adding an additional vehicle to an owner or creating a new Vehicle. It is important that you answer this prompt correctly so that your Autotracker enquiry can display accurate information about owners and their vehicles.
