Seamless Quoting and Booking: Create and send quotes via email or SMS using parts from GSF, tyres from Group Tyre, your stock, labour, MOTs, services, and more. Approved quotes can be instantly converted into jobs and scheduled directly into your VGM diary. 

Customizable Grid View: Utilise a filterable and sortable grid to manage all opportunities, like other VGM grids. 

Automated Opportunity Creation: Automatically generate opportunities from MOT advisories, Vehicle Health Checks (VHCs), and other recommended work. 

Additional Enhancements 

GSF Quoting in VGM Classic: You can now add GSF parts to sales quotations in VGM Classic without immediately ordering them, offering greater flexibility in your quoting process. This is done through clicking the GSF button above the items grid.
