Arsenault Associates announces the development of Instant Recall, a new function of Dossier software that instantly and automatically displays maintenance history information when a new repair order is initiated. Dossier is Arsenault's fleet maintenance management software system.

Instant Recall automatically displays recent repair and maintenance information on a panel that appears on the right side of the screen as soon as the vehicle's ID is selected when a new repair order is opened.

As more information is added to the repair order, Instant Recall automatically drills down into that vehicle's history to match entered information. As a result, the technician or supervisor can clearly see if the same kind of work has previously been performed on a vehicle and when. He can also see the repair reasons and what parts were installed, and can even see a specific previously completed repair order or complete repair history — all without leaving the working screen.

Instant Recall automatically identifies and displays previous work performed on a piece of equipment that matches the work about to be performed. It enables instant access to past repair order data at general or detailed levels before new work begins.

Instant Recall uses VMRS (Vehicle Maintenance Reporting Standards) codes, which have been adopted by equipment manufacturers and parts suppliers to simplify parts ordering, warranty recovery, defect reporting, and other issues.
