Labor Wizard for ADP
With this program you can download the contents of the ADP service history file by the opcodes and ADP fields you select. The file is downloaded in the form of a standard csv file, which Excel can open and analyze.
System requirements:
The Labor Wizard for ADP is written using Reflection version 10, which was the final version of Reflection used by ADP when they began implementing their webSuite software. Reflection is still commonly used in dealerships, however, because it affords more control and customization when it comes to programming and file downloads. Most dealerships have Reflection 10 on their PCs and their DMS. If you have an earlier version, please contact ADP for support.

- List of all the DMS providers and their rank as Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3
For those of you who might question whether or not I'm independent after designing DealerStar - I'm not, but I do know these systems and I haven't met another consultant that has spent the time that I have consulting with dealers on these systems. In one month alone, I was on an AutoSoft system helping them use the dispatching and flagging system, then over to an ACS system to help them download to Excel, and finishing up with an office manager during their Arkona/DealerTrack DMS installation. I recently wrote Expense Master for Auto/Mate. I am proud to say that I am probably the only consultant that has taken payments for almost ALL of the DMS providers over the years. Yes, I've consulted with almost each one; product consulting, data extraction or sales training. I like all these systems and they do the job, so the challenge will be for you to read this guide, see the systems, and pick the one best for you!
