Managing an auto recycling or auto parts business demands efficiency and accuracy, especially when it comes to inventory. Manually identifying and cataloging car parts can be time-consuming and prone to errors. Imagine a tool that simplifies this process, allowing you to Identify Car Parts By Picture and manage your entire inventory from the palm of your hand. That’s Photomate, the mobile app designed to work seamlessly with Checkmate and revolutionize your parts management workflow.
Capture and Catalog Parts Visually
With Photomate, taking part photos becomes an integral part of your inventory process. Using your mobile device, you can effortlessly view tasks and add high-quality images directly to part records. These images are instantly uploaded to Checkmate, ensuring your system is always up-to-date with visual documentation of your inventory. The app allows for photo cropping and annotation with circles and arrows, highlighting key features for accurate visual identification of car parts.
Streamline Inventory with Mobile Part Identification
Adding parts to your inventory is no longer tethered to a desktop. Photomate empowers you to add parts to your Checkmate inventory directly from your mobile device, right at the point of identification. This mobile capability is crucial for quickly processing new stock. You can categorize parts, assign ARA damage codes, flag parts for review, mark them as private, and, of course, add photos for visual identification – all in one streamlined process.
Efficient Location Audits with Visual Verification
Maintaining accurate inventory locations is essential to prevent “lost” parts and ensure efficient order fulfillment. Photomate simplifies location audits by enabling you to conduct them directly in the yard. Utilize the built-in barcode scanner to verify part locations quickly. For parts without barcodes, you can easily look them up and visually confirm their location, ensuring your Checkmate data remains current and reliable.
Simplify Part Relocation and Inventory Updates
Moving parts within your facility becomes a breeze with Photomate. Whether you’re relocating individual parts or entire vehicle lots, the app allows you to update part locations with or without barcodes. When moving vehicles, Photomate ensures that the locations of all related parts are immediately updated, maintaining inventory accuracy and simplifying the process of identifying car parts in their new locations.
Accelerate Interchange Assignment with Visual Part Context
Resolution parts, those requiring interchange assignments, can be efficiently managed with Photomate. The app allows you to look up Resolution Parts by various criteria such as Location, Stock #, Part Type, and Model. By providing visual context through part photos, Photomate makes the process of assigning interchange more accurate and faster, improving the overall efficiency of your parts processing.

Keeping your price book current is vital for profitability. Photomate helps you maintain Checkmate’s Price Book and update existing inventory prices efficiently. Quickly identify prices that haven’t been updated recently and visually verify the parts in question.
