# AutoTracker Customers BT

****Marlin GTX**** enables fast lookup and management of cash customers, vehicle owners, vehicles, and related transaction history.

The AutoTracker provides **owner** and **vehicle** details along with full transaction history.

**It enables:**

- **Multiple owners** to be associated with a single vehicle
- **Single owners** to be associated with multiple vehicles

**This can be useful for:**

- **Company vehicles** brought in by different staff members
- **Households** where multiple vehicles are owned by different family members

The AutoTracker also enables **follow-ups** and **marketing activities** without requiring customers to set up an account.

The AutoTracker can be accessed when adding [Business Planner bookings](/gtx/docs/autotracker-customers-ob#business-planner), [Work Orders and Invoices](/gtx/docs/autotracker-customers-ob#work-orders-and-invoices) or using the seperate [AutoTracker Enquiry](/gtx/docs/autotracker-customers-ob#autotracker-enquiry) module.

## Adding AutoTracker Customers

Customers are added to the auto tracker when their details are saved on a Business Planner booking or Work Order/Invoice.

### Business Planner

When adding a booking, click on the **Search** button at the top of the Add Booking pop-up to open the autotracker.

In the **AutoTracker** pop-up that opens:

- Click the **New Person** button on the left  

(Or, search for and select an existing one)

You will be returned to the **Add Booking** window with the AutoTracker button activated.

Enter the customer's details in the **New Person** section below:

- These Details will be added to the AutoTracker when the booking is **saved** and can be selected again on future orders

Additional details of saved/selected customers can be viewed and edited by clicking on the **AutoTracker** button to the top right.

Warning

Always click **Search** before entering a customer's details, if you want to save them in the AutoTracker.

If you add the details to the booking window before clicking Search the customer's details **will not be saved** and you will have to enter them again.

Note

The **Customer** selector at the bottom of the Business Planner and on the right of Work Order and Invoice entry forms is for selecting account customers and should be left/set as **1 - Cash Customer** when selecting AutoTracker customers.

Tip

A prompt may appear asking whether an **owner or vehicle already exists**.

**Selecting the correct option** ensures AutoTracker returns accurate results.

### Work Orders and Invoices

AutoTracker customers can also be added from Work Orders and Invoices, by clicking on the **Owner** icon at the top-right.

The **AutoTracker** pop-up will open.

**To add a new customer:**

- Click the **New Person** button on at the bottom right  

(Or, search for and select an existing one)

Another **AutoTracker** pop-up will open, which can be used to add and save the customer details.

## AutoTracker Enquiry

Independent AutoTracker searches can also be performed using the AutoTracker Equiry module, accessed selecting **Main > Enquiries > AutoTracker** from the menu bar.

AutoTracker searches are split into **owner and vehicle searches** at the top and **invoice searches** at the bottom.

**The AutoTracker can search by:**

- **Registration** number
- **Customer** name
- **Mobile** number
- **Vehicle** make or model
- **Street** name or suburb

Results can also be **filtered** by owner, registration no., or vehicle using the checkboxes at the top.

- Press **Enter** or click **Refresh**

Tip

Searching by **mobile number** is usually the fastest option

AutoTracker searches **do not include account customers**.

**Double-click** a result to open the detailed AutoTracker view.

Use the **tabs** at the top left to switch between owners and vehicles.

Additional information about **Transactions**, **Bookings**, **Open Orders**, **Attachments** and **Inspections** is can also be viewed by clicking on the tabs at the bottom.

### Editing Owner Information

Customer or Vehicle details can be updated by clicking on the **Edit** button at the bottom left of their AutoTracker file.
