Switching from TRACS to MechFlow

Moving your shop's data from one system to another sounds daunting. Years of customer records, vehicle history, and financial data — you can't afford to lose any of it.

We've built MechFlow's migration process to make switching as painless as possible.

What Gets Migrated

• Customers: All contact information, notes, and preferences
• Vehicles: VIN, year/make/model, mileage history
• Work order history: Your complete service history, linked to customers and vehicles
• Inventory: Part numbers, quantities, costs, and vendor info

How It Works

1. Export from TRACS: Export your data using TRACS's built-in export tools
2. Upload to MechFlow: Use our import wizard to upload your data files
3. Review & map fields: Our system automatically maps most fields — you just confirm
4. Import: Hit import and your data flows into MechFlow
5. Verify: Spot-check a few customers and vehicles to confirm everything transferred

Tips for a Smooth Transition

• Run both systems in parallel for 1-2 weeks before fully switching
• Start new work orders in MechFlow while keeping TRACS as reference for history
• Train your team on MechFlow during slower hours — the learning curve is minimal
• Reach out to support if you hit any issues — we've helped many shops through this process
