Work orders are the core of Truck Genie's maintenance tracking. Every repair, service, or inspection gets logged as a work order — creating a complete, searchable service history for every unit in your fleet.
Whether your mechanic is working in your own shop or you're outsourcing to a local repair facility, work orders track what was done, when, by whom, what parts were used, and what it cost.
Choose which truck or unit needs work from your fleet list.
Enter a description of the repair or service. Be specific — "Replace turbo actuator" is better than "engine issue." This becomes your searchable history.
Assign the work order to a mechanic (if in-house) or note the external shop. Set a priority level so your team knows what to tackle first.
As work progresses, update the status. Add parts used, labor hours, and costs as they happen.
When the repair is done, mark the work order as complete. This updates the unit's service history and can trigger related PM schedule resets.
The Work Queue shows all open work orders across your fleet in one view. If you have an in-house mechanic or shop, this is their daily dashboard — a prioritized list of what needs to be done, organized by urgency and assignment.
Each work order can include parts costs and labor hours. Over time, this data lets you see your total maintenance spend by unit, by repair type, and by time period — giving you the information you need to make smarter decisions about your fleet.
