Auto repair shop management app template
An auto repair shop management app for independent service desks. Create vehicle work orders, assign a technician, and track repair progress, estimates, and promised times.
What is the auto repair shop management app template?
Pitlane opens with a workshop board that groups vehicles into checked-in, diagnosis, repair and ready stages, followed by a focused pickup panel. Staff can create a service order for an existing vehicle and update the technician, repair status, manual USD estimate, promised-time label and notes. The app uses ToolJet Database with fictional records.

What’s included in the auto repair shop management template?
A workshop overview
A workshop-focused dashboard brings the current vehicle work together in a cobalt-blue identity with a compact navigation rail.
Work orders connected to vehicles
Create an order against an existing vehicle, with the required service and working details. The vehicle reference keeps each repair attached to the right record.
Technician and status updates
Keep a named technician and a status of Booked, Diagnosing, Repairing, Ready, or Collected on each work order. Status changes are recorded manually by staff.
Estimates and handover notes
Save a manual USD estimate, a promised-time label, and the latest note. These fields support handovers; they do not create an invoice or a calendar appointment.
ToolJet Database with sample data
The pilot uses 2 tables with fictional records. No external database is needed to explore the source app.
| Table | Sample data | What it stores |
|---|---|---|
| Vehicles | 6 sample vehicles | Vehicle reference, display name, and service context. |
| Work orders | 9 sample work orders | Vehicle, required service, technician, repair status, estimated USD amount, promised-time label, and notes. |
The overview shows the first two orders in Booked, Diagnosing, and Repairing, plus the first Ready vehicle; use Work orders for the full bounded list. Vehicle intake, parts inventory, invoices, payments, diagnostic integrations, and customer notifications are not included. Estimates are manually entered USD amounts, not approved quotes. Promised times are labels rather than a live calendar. The English desktop pilot reads up to 1,000 rows per table and blocks writes above that limit. Export, clean installation, and access policies remain unverified.
