Four parts of BayNerve, one work order underneath them.
The work board, the inspection, the estimate, and the vehicle record are not four systems. They are four views of the same job.
01
The work board
Every job stays tied to one of four core states. The board shows the shop what is ready, what is moving, what is blocked, and what has closed.
Assign the job or let a technician claim it
See assignment, age, priority, blockers, and labor signals on the board
Keep blockers visible and move a stopped repair to Parts hold when parts are the constraint
Search the queue, filter by technician, or focus the board on work that needs attention
The four states
Ready to start
Open and ready for assignment or work to begin.
In progress
Work has started and the repair is moving through the shop.
Parts hold
The repair is waiting on a part before work can continue.
Closed
The repair is finished and retained in the service record.
ONE SHARED JOB STATE
02
Digital inspections
The technician records structured findings while the vehicle is still in the bay, with measurements, notes, photos or video, severity, timing, and a recommended action kept with the inspection.
Structured findings marked Pass, Caution, Fail, or Not inspected
Photos, video, measurements, notes, and technician evidence kept with the repair
Recommendations can carry condition, severity, timing, and the next action
Inspection findings can be carried into traceable estimate lines for the advisor

Estimates and approvals
BayNerve retains the estimate version the customer saw, records line-level decisions, and keeps the authorization with the repair. Declined work stays visible for later follow-up.
Build labor, parts, fees, discounts, and other estimate lines from the shop’s pricing
Approved, declined, and undecided lines stay separate
The retained response shows who authorized the work and when
Changes after approval require a new customer decision before they count as authorized
