Interface to Repdoc
The Repdoc interface integrated into CATAMA allows repair shops to transfer the shopping cart from Repdoc directly into a work order. Items, replacement parts, and labor rates are automatically imported into the CATAMA software, eliminating the need for manual entry and significantly speeding up the workflow.

- The interface connects to Repdoc and displays the available shopping cart.
- The user confirms the import; the items and work values are transferred to the order.
- The order can be further processed, approved, or printed.
