ProCarLink is built in the Netherlands, and a handful of things in it only make sense here: a number plate that fills in the vehicle, a Chamber of Commerce entry that is looked up rather than typed, and dealer work billed once a period instead of once a car. This page is for whoever runs a Dutch shop in English.
Type the registration at intake and the make, the model and the technical details come back from the national vehicle register. It saves typing, and more to the point it keeps the wrong car from ending up under the right job.
Adding a business account, you look its Chamber of Commerce number up and the legal name and address come back with it. Its VAT number is checked against the European validation service as well, so what ends up on the invoice comes out of a register rather than out of a form somebody filled in.
A garage or a lease company gets one document a period listing each car, its plate and its treatment, rather than thirty separate invoices. Finished work that has not yet been picked up by such a document stays visible, which is how B2B turnover quietly goes missing otherwise.
An invoice can carry a payment link, and what your customer pays arrives in your own account rather than passing through ours. Your bank account number is printed next to that link, so an invoice processed by a machine always finds somewhere to remit to.
No. The sign-up accepts any country. What is specific to the Netherlands is the plate lookup and the Chamber of Commerce lookup; the rest works the same wherever you are.
Yes, the Dutch rates are stored, so quotes and invoices calculate with them without you entering a percentage anywhere.
The interface runs in four languages including English and Dutch, so you and a colleague can each read the screen in your own. Which language a customer is written to is set on the customer, not on you.
Yes. With their VAT number the charge is reversed to them and the invoice states it; the number is checked against the European service when it is reachable.
