Parts returns & credit tracking for garages

Parts returns, sorted.

We help garages keep track of every returned part and every credit they're owed. Slipless links each return to its invoice, its collection and its credit.

One return, start to finish: invoice scanned, parts collected, credit matched and checked in Xero. Under two minutes, demo data.

The problem with paper

Slips go missing

A handwritten slip in a box, written up again by the driver. Then it's lost.

Credits land in the wrong place

Credits get booked against the last invoice, not the one the part came on.

Nobody knows what's owed

What went back, when, who took it, and which credits are still missing.

MondayWrong pads returned
TuesdayDriver collects them
FridayStill no credit. Nobody noticed.

With Slipless, Monday's return is logged against its invoice, Tuesday's collection is ticked by the driver with a time and a name, and on Friday it's still showing as waiting for a credit, so someone does notice.

How it works

  1. Scan the invoice. Snap the original invoice on a phone. Slipless reads the part lines.
  2. Tick what's going back. One tap makes a return note, grouped by invoice, with a QR code.
  3. Driver scans and ticks. No app or login. Each part is confirmed as it's loaded, with a time and a name.
  4. Credit matched. When the credit note arrives, Slipless matches it to the right return and flags anything wrong or missing.

Every credit you're owed, in one place

Every return still waiting for a credit shows how many days it's been waiting. After 14 days it moves to the chase list, with the invoice, part and value beside it, so you know exactly what to ask your supplier for.

The short version. Screens show demo data.

When something doesn't match

  • Nothing is saved until you've checked it. Every part line read from a photo can be edited, added or removed first.
  • Blurry or angled photo? Slipless says so. Retake it, or type the line in by hand.
  • Send back some parts from an invoice, not all. Tick only what's going.
  • Credit booked against the wrong invoice? It's flagged as soon as the credit note is scanned.
  • Use Xero? Slipless checks the credit notes in your accounts, spots one on the wrong invoice, and moves it to the right one when you confirm.
  • One credit covering several returns? Slipless suggests which ones, and you confirm.
  • Returns with no credit after 14 days go on the chase list.

Your data, kept safe

  • Each business only ever sees its own returns. This is enforced in the database, not just the app.
  • Sign in with a one-time code by email, so there are no passwords to steal. You choose who's on your team.
  • Drivers and branches only see the return they've been sent, through a private link.
  • Stored in the EU (Ireland) and encrypted in transit.
  • We never sell your data. Close your account and it's deleted within 90 days.
