Auto Repair, Service Shops & Crafting

The POS system for workshops & service shops.

Merkuron is the specialized POS system for auto repair workshops and service operations: combining labor units, spare parts catalog, vehicle data, and GoBD-compliant checkout at the register.

Combined Invoicing: Labor Units & Parts

A repair workshop ticket differs completely from a restaurant bill. Merkuron bundles labor hours, labor units, and spare parts inventory into a single unified tamper-proof check.

Labor Units & Hourly Rates

Record mechanical work using standardized labor units or custom hourly rates. Labor times are tracked accurately and displayed transparently on customer repair invoices.

Structured Spare Parts Catalog

Manage replacement parts with part numbers, manufacturer details, and cost prices. Add items via barcode scanner or fast search directly to repair orders.

Subcontracted Work & Services

Separate internal mechanical labor from external sub-contracted work and parts for clear cost breakdown and proper VAT calculations on invoices.

Vehicle Details & Customer Records

Every repair order is tied to a specific vehicle. Merkuron captures vehicle identification details during checkout and prints them on the repair invoice.

License Plate & Odometer Mileage

Print official vehicle license plates, current mileage readings, and work order numbers directly onto customer, insurance, and internal repair receipts.

Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)

The 17-digit VIN is attached to customer profiles, creating a permanent audit trail of all historical inspections, oil changes, and mechanical services.

Customer & Vehicle Service History

Recall past repair invoices for any customer or vehicle in seconds to inspect previously installed parts, labor hours, and historical charges.

Inspection Fees & Register Checkout

The checkout desk at a workshop handles both counter sales of shop accessories and complex repair invoice settlements.

Official Inspection Fees (HU/AU)

Handle vehicle inspection and emissions test fees as pass-through items or tax-exempt third-party charges without margin distortion.

Cash & Card Payment at Register

Collect invoice payments at the checkout counter in cash or via credit/debit card payments connected to your ZVT terminal.

3. Insurance Split & Adjustments
