Deferred Services

Move deferred service from open review to scheduled work.

A visible pipeline combines the recommendation, customer, vehicle, estimated value, contact history, notes, and a phone-first call workspace before staff advances the outcome.

How it works

Prioritize, prepare, and track the next staff action.

The feature stays connected to source context and makes each staff-controlled transition visible.

01

Prioritize

Start with unreviewed and outreach-ready recommendations.

Recovery health, priority, value, and the best next move help staff choose work with usable customer and service context.

02

Prepare

Open the phone-first customer and service workspace.

Staff can review the recommendation, vehicle, value, history, contact readiness, and clearly labeled assistive guidance.

03

Track

Advance one visible stage at a time.

Open, follow-up, contacted, and scheduled remain local workflow states changed through deliberate staff controls.

Connected workflow

Recovery work continues beyond the pipeline card.

Deferred recommendations draw on the customer and vehicle record, create deliberate reminders and Today work, and can move toward appointment planning when a customer is ready.

Customer and vehicle record

Review service history, mileage, notes, contact readiness, and maintenance evidence before outreach.

Limits and trust

Important boundaries stay beside the feature claim.

Local workflow state

Pipeline movement, notes, reminders, and tasks are VehicleDesk workflow records; source repair history remains authoritative in Shopmonkey.

Call guide is assistive

Suggested phrases require staff review and do not establish contact eligibility or send a message.
