Features
Built around the test lane
Every part of TestLanes was designed with a working ATF: the words, the screens and the order things happen in.
01
The diary
Times down the side, lanes across: the layout your front desk already knows.
- Day and week views, colour-coded by status
- DVSA sessions as a pool of minutes, with overrun allowance
- Own-services time for tacho, brakes and other work
- Hold time back from online booking, with automatic release
- Several tests in one booking: lorry and trailer, back to back
02
Testing days
Your DVSA days on each lane, without retyping them.
- Import DVSA's testing-day file and preview it before it changes anything
- Standard sessions per lane, added to a month in a few clicks
- Pending and confirmed days shown differently
- Lanes for own services only, with no DVSA testing
03
Online booking
Your own booking page for operators and drivers, open all hours.
- Tests chosen by code: V2, T3, PL, PSR and the rest
- Only arrival times that really fit the session are offered
- Prices shown with or without VAT
- Approve each booking, or let trusted accounts book straight in
- Minimum notice and online cancellation cut-off set by you
04
Check-in and results
A Today page for the desk: who's due, who's here, who's done.
- Arrivals across every lane in time order
- Confirm each registration or trailer ID as it arrives
- Record pass, PRS, fail or abandoned, with notes
- No-shows with an optional fee, decided each time
05
Invoicing
Invoices from what was actually tested, the way each customer wants them.
- Per booking, daily, weekly or monthly, set per customer
- Sequential numbering, PO numbers enforced where required
- DVSA fee and pit fee kept apart, with the right VAT on each
- Credit notes, PDF invoices emailed to the customer
- CSV export for your accounts package
06
Customers and team
Everything about a customer on one page, and the right access for each person.
- Customer pages: bookings, vehicles and trailers, invoices, terms
- Credit accounts, internal customers, required PO numbers
- Owner notes when a maintenance provider books for someone else
- Invite staff by email; owners, admins and staff each see what they need
