All the tools you need to run your vehicle inventory well

GPS-Stamped Scan Locations

Every scan records where the vehicle was — so you can find it again fast.

Each time you scan a vehicle, ScanIt Vehicles stamps it with the time and its GPS location. The lot map shows each unit's last-scanned spot, so instead of walking the lot you look it up by stock number, VIN, or model and go straight to it.

  • GPS + time stamped on every scan
  • Lot map of each vehicle's last-scanned position
  • Search by stock number, VIN, or model
  • Movement history from scan to scan
  • Reduce time spent searching for vehicles by up to 80%

Need live, continuous GPS — test-drive monitoring, geofencing, hard-braking and speed alerts? That's our sister product, Smartelematics.

Accelerated Check-In

Dealer Transfers

Track and post dealer transfer records with ease.

Keep clean records of every vehicle that moves between stores. ScanIt Vehicles makes it easy to log transfers, track vehicles in transit, and keep the books right for units coming and going.

  • Receive and process incoming transfers quickly

Handheld Lot Scanning

Count new and used vehicles fast and right — even with no signal on the back lot.

Tap Sync With Server to download your inventory to a rugged handheld, then walk the lot and scan each VIN. Scanning runs fully offline against the on-device list; each match flips the vehicle to "scanned" and stamps the time and GPS location, and the counter climbs toward your full count. Sync again to upload — and reconciliation is done.

  • Works offline — only Sync needs a connection
  • Scan the VIN barcode or type the VIN / Stock #
  • Runs on rugged Chainway C66 / C72 Android handhelds
  • Add "Not Found" vehicles on the spot to reconcile later
  • Switch between dealerships on one login

Reports That Reconcile Your Lot

Know exactly what's missing, what's extra, and who scanned what.

When the count is done, ScanIt Vehicles turns your scans into clear, color-coded reports so you can close the loop with your DMS in minutes.

  • Variance ReportMissing (in inventory but not scanned) vs. Found (scanned but not in inventory), with year, make, model, color, and last-scanned
  • Not In Inventory — the "found extras" to reconcile with your DMS
  • Scan History — every scan by user, VIN, stock #, and time; filter by date and person
  • Filter by vehicle type and variance type
  • Export any report to Excel for auditing

Window Addendums

Print dealer-option addendum sheets and stickers in seconds.

Build a window addendum right from a vehicle: add each option and price, drag to reorder, pick a layout, and print the PDF. Save your common options in a reusable catalog so the option name autocompletes every time.

  • Add options with name + price and reorder by drag
  • Reusable options catalog with autocomplete
  • Choose from multiple print layouts
  • Generate a clean, print-ready PDF

Pull Inventory On Demand

Get your latest DMS inventory the moment you need it — no waiting for the scheduled sync.

ScanIt Vehicles pulls your inventory from your DMS on a set schedule. But when a truck of new units just landed or you're about to start a count, one click of Pull Inventory on the dashboard grabs the newest list right away. The button shows its progress while it runs and won't let two pulls overlap, so your data stays clean.

  • One-click, on-demand DMS inventory pull
  • No waiting for the next scheduled sync
  • Shows progress while the pull runs
  • Guarded so two pulls can't run at once
  • Start a count against fully current inventory

Dashboard at a Glance

Open the dashboard and see the health of your lot in seconds.

The ScanIt Vehicles dashboard leads with the numbers managers care about, so you know where things stand the moment you log in — and when the data was last refreshed.

  • Vehicles In Inventory — your current DMS unit count
  • Vehicles Scanned This Month — scanning activity so far this month
  • Total MSRP — the value of the inventory on hand
  • Last Inventory Pull — when your DMS inventory was last refreshed
  • Last Scanner Sync — when a handheld last synced, and who did it
