GEM-CAR Retention Pro Capabilities

This article is for the connection between Retention Pro and GEM-CAR

The data connection or "sync" between the GEM-CAR system and Retention Pro is triggered by adding new information into your GEM-CAR system.  This means that if you add a new Repair Order or Customer in GEM-CAR it will trigger a sync automatically with Retention Pro to bring that information into our system.

Information:

Retention Pro remains connected to the GEM-CAR POS via a service uploader installed on the shop's host computer. For more information on connecting please see Establishing a connection with GEM-CAR
