What gets in the way for locksmiths, and what does IntelliDrive OS do about it?

Blank bins with no counts

You find out a key blank is gone when a tech reaches for it. With a reorder point on each blank, the Reorder Alerts page shows it is low before the bin is empty.

Transponders and remotes that vanish

Small, costly parts are easy to lose. Record each one with its FCC ID and OEM part number, and a count shows the dollar value of anything missing.

Van stock is a black box

Set up each van as its own location: it keeps its own count, and transfers show exactly what moved between the shop and the van.

What can you do with Inventory Management in IntelliDrive OS?

Stock by shop and van

Each shop, and each van you set up as its own location, keeps its own count of key blanks, transponders, remotes and fobs.

Automotive parts details

Record FCC ID, OEM part number, chip type, frequency, buttons, keyway, battery and the makes, models and years each key or remote fits.

Reorder points and in-app alerts

Set a reorder point for each item at each location. The Reorder Alerts page lists what is low, owners and admins get an in-app notice, and it can draft purchase orders by supplier.

Counts with the dollar value

Count by scanner, phone camera or typing. The count shows the dollar value of anything missing, keeps an audit of past counts, and fixes the stock record in one click.

Exact transfers

Move stock between locations and see each location’s count before and after the transfer.

Purchase orders and part orders

Scan a supplier invoice to fill in a purchase order, and track special-order parts from ordered to delivered, with a text to the customer when they arrive.

How does it work?

1

Add your items

Add key blanks, transponders, remotes and fobs with SKU, barcode, cost and price, or import them from a CSV or Excel file.

2

Set up locations

Make each shop and van a location and set reorder points for the items it carries.

3

Sell

Each sale takes the items out of the stock of the location that sold them.

4

Count and restock

Count, transfer between locations and reorder from the Reorder Alerts page.

What does it change for a locksmith business?

Know what each van carries

Every location has its own count, so you can check where an item is before anyone drives to get it.

See what goes missing

Counts show the dollar value of what is missing, so shrinkage is no longer a guess.

Reorder before you run out

The low-stock list and the draft purchase orders come from the reorder points you set.

What doesn’t it do?

  • Low-stock alerts are shown in the app, not sent by email or text.
  • Purchase orders can’t be partly received, and there are no supplier price feeds.
