Starting with the option to add your damage inspection template. In previous versions, you were able to choose from 5 common vehicle blueprints(car, SUV, pickup, motorcycle, and a rear truck section) and mark where a vehicle is damaged. To extend usability it&#8217;s now possible for people to add their vehicle blueprint. This template variety allows mechanics to diagnose problems easily and efficiently.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The way to access these damage report templates is from the &#8220;Inspections&#8221; view. Whenever you are creating or editing an inspection in the view &#8211; go to the &#8220;Damage Report&#8221; section. Once you are there &#8211; you should see the standard car blueprint. If you wish to change that click on &#8220;templates&#8221; (in the top right corner), then use the &#8220;add template&#8221; button, which allows you to upload up to 5 damage report templates of your own.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In case you made a mistake or don&#8217;t need the old templates &#8211; you can always delete them through the &#8220;delete template&#8221; in our auto repair software.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1561 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/ari.app\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/damrepscs-1024x502.png\" alt=\"damage-report-auto-repair-software\" width=\"1024\" height=\"502\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ari.app\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/damrepscs-1024x502.png 1024w, https:\/\/ari.app\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/damrepscs-300x147.png 300w, https:\/\/ari.app\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/damrepscs-768x376.png 768w, https:\/\/ari.app\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/damrepscs-1536x752.png 1536w, https:\/\/ari.app\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/damrepscs.png 1919w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1559\" src=\"https:\/\/ari.app\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/damrep2s-300x147.png\" alt=\"damage-report-page-auto-repair-software\" width=\"420\" height=\"206\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ari.app\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/damrep2s-300x147.png 300w, https:\/\/ari.app\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/damrep2s-1024x502.png 1024w, https:\/\/ari.app\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/damrep2s-768x377.png 768w, https:\/\/ari.app\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/damrep2s-1536x754.png 1536w, https:\/\/ari.app\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/damrep2s.png 1910w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 420px) 100vw, 420px\" \/> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1560\" src=\"https:\/\/ari.app\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/damrep3-300x149.png\" alt=\"damage-report-template-auto-repair-software\" width=\"420\" height=\"208\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ari.app\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/damrep3-300x149.png 300w, https:\/\/ari.app\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/damrep3-1024x507.png 1024w, https:\/\/ari.app\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/damrep3-768x381.png 768w, https:\/\/ari.app\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/damrep3-1536x761.png 1536w, https:\/\/ari.app\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/damrep3.png 1758w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 420px) 100vw, 420px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><b>Checklist page reordering<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Providing better list readability and easier navigation are among our top priorities.
