ProDemand Update: Estimate Guide Item Numbers
June 3, 2021 by Gary Hixson
What’s new in the current release?
Estimate Guide Item Numbers: When you navigate to a parts listing within the Estimate Guide module, the item number is now shown on the same viewing level as the part name – see figure 1. This feature allows technicians to start with a part, and then reference the exploded view diagram to identify the correct part name.
Figure 1
The item number matches the call-out number provided in the OEM exploded-view graphics – see figure 2. To view the graphic, click on the part name, and then click on the blue item number. Not all parts have associated graphics.

The ProDemand Estimate Guide is integrated with the Mitchell 1 shop management software, Manager SE™, giving shops instant access to maintenance schedules, TSBs, recalls, tracking and industry-leading labor guides directly from the system’s dashboard.
Service writers and shop managers will benefit from having labor times, OEM parts pricing and part diagrams consolidated on a single page, making it faster to find the information and elements needed to kick off the repair process with an estimate that paves the way for an efficient, profitable job.
