How your CRM pulls in closed repair orders from ShopMonkey

  • When an estimate in ShopMonkey is changed to an invoice and marked as [Paid] your CRM will pull in that [paid] invoice as a closed repair order.

From your Workflow screen in ShopMonkey

  • Open an existing estimate

  • When work is completed change the order status to invoice

  • Collect payment from your customer

  • Once payment is collected your invoice will be marked paid in ShopMonkey and your CRM will pull it in on the next sync.
