At the decision's level of detail
A report stays clear at the level the decision needs, with simple graphs or maps and a path to the underlying record.
Reporting
Is it worth hiring another mechanic?
That is the kind of question reporting should answer. Collection, processing, a data warehouse and presentation, with every figure drillable to the record that produced it, because it came from the same operational data.

A code-native six-site bar view of sample margin per car. The bars compare Praha, Brno, Ostrava, Plzeň, Bratislava and Wien; the concept calls out Ostrava at 52 400, Wien at 22 100 and an average of 38 900, then explains the Wien outlier. Sample data, not dealer performance.
- Best fit
- Principal or owner · Group controller · Site manager · Buyer
- Operational job
- Answer operational and financial questions from one shared data model, compare sites and stock characteristics, drill each KPI to its source record, and feed custom views or external BI.
- What you get
- Reports that trace stock, site and financial figures back to their source records.
The problem
The questions are simple. Answering them usually is not.
How much does the business earn? What causes the losses? Will there be enough money for next year's development? Is another mechanic worth hiring? These source questions usually trigger several exports that disagree; Reporting answers from records that already exist.
Cloud, on any device
Data is transmitted securely to the configured warehouse, processed and displayed across operating systems, browsers and devices with set access rights.
Your systems, your views
Reporting connects to source systems and can deliver tailored views; XLS and CSV remain available when data must move elsewhere.
Six standard views
Dashboards that help. Every day.
Every standard view the source publishes, and the answer, evidence and drill-down it provides. Select one.
Is the business under control today?
Cars in the business, average age of warehouse stock and commission, alongside open cases, tasks and images, a daily state of play.
This is the view a site manager opens first, not the controller's month-end view.
- Answers
- What is happening now, and what is waiting for someone
- Shows
- Cars, stock age, commission, business cases, tasks and images
- Drills to
- The individual case or task behind any count
What did we earn, and from what?
Cars sold, total sales and margins, average margin per car and the composition of that margin explain a good or poor month.
Composition distinguishes healthy retail from one unusually profitable trade deal.
- Answers
- How much the company earns, and which part earns it
- Shows
- Units sold, sales, total and average margin, margin composition
- Drills to
- The deal, its documents and work order
Which kind of car earns for us?
Margin by sales price, mileage, production year and days on offer, plus leading brands and models, turns buying policy into an evidenced decision.
The result can shape what Sourcing looks for next month.
- Answers
- What profile to buy more of, and what to stop buying
- Shows
- Margin by price band, mileage, year, days on offer, brand and model
- Drills to
- The cars inside any band
What is the stock made of?
Count, total value, averages for price, mileage and age, plus how many cars are sitting at each stage of work.
Cars waiting on a task are cars not yet for sale, which is why both appear together.
- Answers
- What we own and what state it is in
- Shows
- Count, value, averages for price, mileage and age, cars by task
- Drills to
- The vehicle record and its open tasks
Are we within capacity and budget?
Cars against capacity, value against budget, age and turnaround, and stock-age structure are the four comparisons a floorplan conversation needs.
Against capacity and budget, not in isolation: full within budget is different from empty and over it.
- Answers
- Whether capacity and capital support next year's plan
- Shows
- Stock vs capacity, value vs budget, age, turnaround and age structure
- Drills to
- The ageing units driving the structure
Where is the capital, exactly?
Count, value and average price split by price band and production year turn too much stock into a segment a buyer can act on.
The view makes capital concentration a specific decision rather than a general worry.
- Answers
- Which segment is absorbing the money
- Shows
- Count, value and average price by price band and production year
- Drills to
- Individual cars in any band or year

Simple graphs and maps at the detail the decision needs.
Detailed analysis
A figure openable down to the record behind it.
Six standard views
Overview, margins, margin profile, car profile, stock overview and structure.
Maps
Geographic visualisation where location is the question.
Custom views
Views tailored to the content and visualisation in scope.
XLS and CSV export
Data downloadable for further use.
Access rights
A site sees its scope while a group can see across it.
Any device
Independent of operating system, browser or device.
By role
Who gets an answer without another export
Principal or owner
Gets one place to answer the operating questions that shape hiring, capital and development.
Group controller
Compares sites on identical definitions and opens an outlier down to the deal.
Site manager
Sees the same figures the group sees, turning the review into a discussion of causes.
Buyer
Learns which vehicle profiles earned rather than which felt like good purchases.
Platform & data connections
Why the numbers agree
DMS Core
Views read the events modules wrote rather than a separately interpreted export.
Accounting
The ledger under the management view, so a KPI can reconcile with the books.
Stock Report & Warehouse
Ageing, capacity and stock value feed the stock views.
Open Platform
Your systems as additional sources, or the governed warehouse output feeding your BI.
System relationship
Reporting in the connected product system
The views read the same operational events, ledger and stock records that the modules already use; Open Platform adds or exports sources at the governed boundary.
Outcome & proof
What we can and cannot claim yet
Shared definitions
Group and site teams read the same metrics over the same operational records.
Drill-down to source
Every aggregate can open to the vehicle, order, task or document that produced it.
Standard and custom views
Six standard views are the starting set; custom views are scoped around the decision and its sources.
Governed refresh
The reporting warehouse refreshes on a configured cadence documented for the deployment.
Delivery & cadence
Secondary product demonstration
Drill-down into an outlier
One sample question connects a group figure to the site and vehicles that caused the outlier.
