Setup Wizard - Miscellaneous Options

Top  Previous  Next

 
Garage Assistant gives you the ability to add credit card surcharge amounts to invoices over a specific amount.

 

The setup wizard allows you to specify the percentage, whether this should be vat exempt or not (usually set to No unless you are not vat registered) and also the minimum amount an invoice should be, before the surcharge notice is displayed

 

Once this is set, any new documents created will store a reference to the percentage and allow you to add or remove the surcharge as you see fit.  Changing the percentage will not affect any existing documents on system.

 

 

 

An example of a surcharge in use :

 

 

Above shows the total invoice, with the payment set to Card, to include a surcharge to this document you can now click the + Surcharge option, this will change the figures to those shown below and give a notice on screen that the surcharge is now added

 

 

 

The surcharge option is available on standard invoices only however is never enforced
You must manually click the + surcharge button when on the payment entry screen

 

 
There are also some additional options involving the mail shot system, allowing you to specify which reminders will re-schedule and which will not, this allows more control over the 4 different vehicle reminders in the system.

 

 

 

And finally, you can force GA3 to automatically set a reminder, if you select an MOT test option.

This will not set a date, if one already exists in the system, it will only set one if the current reminder is empty.
