For auto repair
Know how the shop did this week, not next month.
Dear CFO connects Tekmetric to your accounting, so car count, average repair order and technician output sit next to the P&L for every shop you run.

The problem
The shop system and the books never meet
Repair orders live in Tekmetric, costs live in QuickBooks, and reviews live somewhere else. Putting them together is a spreadsheet someone rebuilds at month end, by which time the slow week is a slow month.

Dear CFO for auto repair shops
Does it work for multi-shop groups?
Yes. Tekmetric data is tagged by shop, so you can compare shops side by side or add them up, and several accounting companies can be consolidated.
What do I need to connect?
Your Tekmetric Shop ID with the Dear CFO integration enabled, and your QuickBooks Online or Xero. Reviews and ads are optional.
Do I need to change how the shop works?
No. Dear CFO reads from the systems you already use and never writes to them.
