Frequently asked questions
- Does this replace shop management software?
- No — this is a pricing calculator, not a full shop management system. If you need appointment scheduling, technician assignment, or repair order workflow, that's a job for dedicated shop management software like Tekmetric or Shopmonkey. This template does one thing: turn parts, labor, and fees into a real price.
- Can I adjust this for different tax rates or job types?
- Yes — it's a real spreadsheet. Duplicate the sheet to keep separate versions for different tax jurisdictions or job types (diagnostic, routine maintenance, major repair).
- Is this free to use?
- Yes, on FLYNT's free plan — no credit card required.
