1. Click the Process Web Orders button.

2. Browse to the file exported for the web orders needing processed and click on it..

3. Click "Open".

4. Click the Process eBay Orders button.

5. Click the file exported for the eBay orders needing processed.

6. Click "Open".

7. You should see a message in the log that both files have been processed successfully.

8. You should see in the same folder that the files were processed in (typically the Downloads folder), a new folder "web-orders" and "ebay-orders".

9. If you look in each folder, you will see a file for each order to process. Here is an example of the web-orders folder. The filename structure is "Div - Order # - Sale Date - Customer Name". So for instance, 1 - 793103 - 2025-05-24 - SANDRA KEENEY" is a sale for Rochester (Div # 1), for order # 793103, purchased 5/24/25, by the customer Sandra Keeney. When the Div is 0, that means that the order has not been assigned to any location yet.

10. Here is the ebay-orders folder containing the orders to process. The filename structure here is similar to the web-orders folder where it is "Div - Order # - Sale Date - Customer Name".

11. Now that a file has been created for each order to process, in the next step we will see how to use these to speed up the invoicing process in IntelliDealer.

1. Next, we will look at the Settings button, as this needs to be configured prior to using the Send to IntelliDealer option. Click the Settings button to go to it.

2. Here you will see the various settings that can be configured:

  • eBay Customer ID - Should be the IntelliDealer customer # used for eBay orders
  • Website Customer ID - Should be the IntelliDealer customer # used for web orders

3. Fixed Positioning: Check this option if you intend to always have the Parts Invoicing page in the same position on the screen when processing orders. This can be done by maximzing the Parts Invoicing window, or making it always take up the same half of the screen. Checking this option will make the order process run the best.

By not checking this option, you would need to always put your mouse in a certain spot that we will see later to make the Send to IntelliDealer option work properly, which can be more cumbersome.

4. Mouse Positioning Fields: These are the x and y coordinates of the screen for each field on the Parts Invoicing screen to reference by. Use a program like MPos to find these values.

5. Here is where to put your mouse in the highlighted areas for each Mouse Positioning field on the Customer screen. You can see using the MPos app what the x and y coordinates are for each field when the mouse is in that position.

6. Here is similarly where to put your mouse in the highlighted areas for each Mouse Positioning field on the Details screen.

7. eBay Free Freight Surcharge: This is the amount used in eBay to account for freight with listings that have Free Shipping. The Send to IntelliDealer option will make this calculation for processing properly in IntelliDealer.

8. Once the values are entered, click the Save Settings button to save them.

9. Click the Go Back button to return to the main screen. You will see a record on the screen that says the settings were saved.

How to View Scan History Time in Intellidealer

This article describes how to view the Scan History time in Intellidealer, which is what is the time used for payroll purposes. This screen can also be used as a useful tool to look up who was scanned on what work order at any given time.

1. In Intellidealer, go to Product Support -> Service -> Supervisor:

2. Click on the Scan History tab:

3. On this screen, you will see a bunch of various filters at the top of the page that can be used to search for the appropriate person and date range that you are looking for:

4. As an example, let’s put in a date range for a specific day, and then click the Go button to see the results:

5. For results that are more useful, check the Subtotal and Summarize box, which will subtotal each person by day, and also display a total at the bottom:

Common Use-Case Example: Let’s say we want to see the results for one person, Larry Green, over the course of a week’s time to verify his hours for the week for payroll purposes:

1. To view this, start by clicking the magnifying glass on the Select Technician filter and click on Larry Green’s name, which will enter his tech # (504) into the search box (you could also just type the technician # into the box if you know it):

2. We will then switch the date range to the week we want to look at, and then click go to see the results:

So in this example, we can see that Larry worked a total of 48.60 hours for the week, with day by day subtotals to verify for accuracy.

Common Use-Case Example: Let’s say we want to see how many hours were spent on a work order along with details of who worked when:

Use the filters at the top and put in the work order number in question:

Notice that I also checked off the Subtotal and Summarize boxes so that the subtotal and total hours would be displayed. Also, I put in a Date Range from 3/31/2021 (a year ago from today) and left the To date blank. This displays a year-long range from 3/31/21 to now (3/31/22) and ensures that I will see all the time scans on this work order without any being cut off due to the date (assuming no labor was done on this work order prior to 3/31/21, which is not likely).

Looking at the results there, I can see that 3 people have worked on this job for a total of 24.03 hours, all on the same day 3/21/22.
