OEM Advisor

Select one or more repair lines from the big 3 estimating systems and link directly to targeted OEM repair procedures. In addition to linking to OEM repair procedures for the selected part, RepairCenter’s OEM Advisor includes related OEM procedures. For example, if a front fender is selected, the exterior lights’ article will also be included for review.

The OEM Advisor tool includes a preview pane designed for your shop to easily review OEM articles. As with all TechAdvisor articles, the standard format allows your shop to find information quickly regardless of manufacturer.

TechAdvisor’s database covers an overwhelming amount of information. Included in the OEM Advisor tool are Content Filters designed to filter down to the type of information needed for that repair.

With the OEM Advisor tool a shop can build and print repair reports with the OEM procedures customized for that repair. With the user-friendly interface, a shop can select the specific OEM procedures needed and print out a custom consolidated report that includes the repair procedures, supporting graphics, details of the RO, and sign-off boxes to indicate when and by whom the repair was performed.

If you are accessing TechAdvisor from RepairCenter, you can use the Repair Lines tab to go directly to the appropriate article contained in the TechAdvisor database. You can then build Repair Reports for the technician or for your records on the repair.

1. Open an Repair Order or an Opportunity, and then select the Repair tab.
2. In the Lines sub-tab, select the desired line or lines.
3. Click OEM Advisor , located under the repair lines list.
4. You are taken directly to the TechAdvisor tab, opened to the list of articles specific to the selected repair line or lines.
