How GTX fits together

Each sale carries through the rest of the shop

A sale at the counter becomes a job in the workshop, a draw on stock, an order to a supplier and an entry in the accounts. Follow it through below, or go straight to the full feature list.

Or see the full feature list

01 / The front counter

Every sale starts with the right customer

Whether it’s a set of tyres over the counter, a workshop job or a trade customer on account, GTX builds the sale around the customer, the products and their payment terms. All of it carries through to the invoice.

Quote to invoice
Keep the parts, labour and customer details together as the order progresses.
Cash or account
Handle counter payments, deposits and account customers in the same workflow.
Find past sales
Bring up the original transaction when a customer comes back or needs a credit.
Sale → stock → customer account

02 / The workshop

Once it’s booked, the job gets a bay and a time

The business planner shows enquiries, bookings, quotes and work orders in one view. Give the job a bay or resource and keep the vehicle’s history beside it, so the counter can see how the work is going.

Book a bay or resource
Put bookings into time slots for bays, equipment or other resources.
See the vehicle’s history
Check the vehicle’s previous work and keep notes with the next booking.
Follow up later
Keep track of customer follow-ups and configured declined-service reminders.
Booking → resource → work order

03 / The stock room

Check the stock before you promise the tyres

Search by product code, name or tyre size to see what’s on hand and what’s already allocated, then add it to the order at that customer’s price. Purchasing, stocktakes and reporting all work from the same product file.

Search and scan
Search products and use barcodes to identify the right item.
Price for the customer
Work with customer discounts, markups, costs and configured promotions.
Count and reorder
Count, adjust and replenish stock using stocktakes and reorder levels.
Product → availability → selling price

04 / Suppliers

When stock runs short, order it from the job

Raise a purchase order from the work order that needs the part, then receive the goods and process the supplier invoice against it. With supported suppliers, electronic invoices save keying the details in again.

Order from the job
Create a supplier purchase order from the work order that needs it.
Receive electronically
Process invoices and credits through the supplier inbox with supported suppliers.
Use the catalogue
Enable Burson EzyParts or Repco Navigator Pro to bring catalogue results into GTX.
Work order → supplier → goods received

05 / The back office

The day’s sales are already in the accounts

Customer balances, supplier payments, the cashbook and the general ledger work from the same records as the counter. You can reconcile the bank, close the period and report on sales without entering anything twice.

Customer and supplier accounts
Work with customer statements, supplier balances and payment records.
Reconcile the bank
Compare bank activity with the cashbook and review unmatched transactions.
Sales and financial reports
Explore sales, purchase and financial reports, with settings saved for next time.
Transaction → cashbook → reporting

06 / The mobile app

Technicians update the job from the bay

The Marlin mobile app gives technicians their GTX planner tasks. From their phone they can update a job’s status, add notes and attachments, clock on and off, and run stocktakes.

Job status updates
Keep the front counter informed as planner tasks progress.
Attachments and delivery
Upload job attachments or record proof of delivery on the spot.
Time and attendance
Record time and attendance, with an optional connection to Marlin HR.
Planner task → mobile → front counter
