Auto/Mate Releases Deal Closeout for Desking Module

Deal Closeout comes equipped with enhanced security permissions that provide system administrators more control over which employees can access and/or make changes to a sold or closed deal.

New Feature in Desk/Mate™ Designed to Streamline Auto Dealerships’ Sales Process & Improve Their Workflow

Albany, NY – Auto/Mate Dealership Systems recently released Deal Closeout, a new feature in the Desk/Mate™ Module of its dealership management system (DMS). Desk/Mate users can now work and close deals all in one module, streamlining the sales process and improving the workflow of sales managers, F&I managers and office clerks.

“In most dealership management systems, the process of working a deal involves jumping around several different screens or programs. Deal Closeout simplifies that process so it can be performed all in one place, saving employees a significant amount of time,” said Mike Esposito, President and CEO of Auto/Mate Dealership Systems.

The release of Deal Closeout will sunset Auto/Mate’s F&I Billing Module, a separate application in which F&I managers manually closed deals and posted them to accounting. Eliminating this extra step saves valuable minutes per deal and expedites the posting of deals to accounting.

Deal Closeout comes equipped with enhanced security permissions that provide system administrators more control over which employees can access and/or make changes to a sold or closed deal. An audit log keeps records of which employees closed deals and when.

Deal Closeout is available to all new customers at no additional cost. The new feature is currently being rolled out to Auto/Mate’s existing customers.

Autosled Announces Multiple Product Upgrades

Improved shipment visibility and transporter payment system among updates affecting retail automotive dealers looking to ship cars and trucks.

Autosled announced that it has released multiple product improvements for its nationwide vehicle transport and logistics platform. As a disruptor in the mobility and digital logistics space with a proven track record of excellence, Autosled is constantly improving upon its existing products and infrastructure.

The most recent product rollouts improve functionality for transporter teams within the Autosled network. Providing additional visibility into the available loads along each driver’s individual route saves time while also providing improved service to dealerships needing to move vehicles faster. In addition, Autosled’s new one-click reassignment function saves both dispatchers and drivers significant time, especially when a change needs to be made while a vehicle is en route. Large transport companies with multiple drivers will greatly benefit from these process improvements. Autosled’s mobile application, iOS version 3.1.1, now includes a popup alert informing the driver if the load requires an enclosed trailer, contains any inoperable vehicles, or necessitates special instructions required by the shipper. This has been especially helpful as Autosled increases its coverage at ports and railyards nationwide. These considerations provide that only drivers who can meet the specifications drive to pick up these vehicles- cutting down on pickup cancellations and wasted time.
