Summary

The following article explains how to create quick text in Workshop.

More Information

On the [Description] tab on a job, you can type any amount of standard text, for example, a list of items to check off at a service. You can save a list of quick text that can be loaded onto any job if required.

Go to " Workshop Maintenance Options Jobcard Details Quick Text".

  • Press <F6> or click [Add].
  • In the "Text:" field, supply a code for the text you are going to create.
  • In the "Description:" field, enter a suitable description for the text.
  • In the "Notes:" lines, enter all the text you wish to write.
The tick boxes on the right hand side show on which documents the quick text will print. Removing the tick will mean that the quick text will not be printed on that document.

Adding Quick Text to a Jobcard

Go to " Workshop Workshop Diary".

  • Create a workshop job.
  • To load the quick text, select the [Description] tab.
  • [Click] into the first line of the notes.
  • Press <Ctrl+F1> to perform a search.
  • Alternatively, if you know part of the first line of the quick text you can enter it in and Platinum will search for that for you after you press <Enter>.
