Google Sheets. Vehicle report workflow.

The planned Google Sheets connection would add report context to a shortlist containing prices, sellers and viewing notes. It is not available to connect today. Each row would need the vehicle identity, report date and source reference so a summary could be traced to the underlying report.

• Compare cars in one place

  Keep the same report fields beside every car on your shortlist.

• See when a car was checked

  Keep the report date visible so an older result is not mistaken for a new check.

• Leave room for your judgement

  Add viewing notes and follow up questions beside the vehicle history.

A proposed way to connect Car Check with Google Sheets.

1. Complete a car check

   Review the vehicle and the available history in Car Check.

2. Match a spreadsheet row

   Use the registration to find the car in your shortlist.

3. Keep a dated summary

   Place the report reference and findings beside your own notes.

Registration

A consistent vehicle identifier for each row.

Make and model

A readable description beside the number plate.

Check date and reference

The age of the check and a route back to the report.

Findings to review

A summary that keeps missing or unconfirmed information explicit.

1. Choose your spreadsheet

   Tell us how you currently structure your shortlist or stock sheet.

2. Plan your columns

   Agree which report fields belong in the sheet and how repeated checks should be recorded.

3. Review access and mapping

   When the connection is available, test it in a separate sheet before using a shared working document.

Request automatic Google Sheets updates for your workflow. You can already keep notes manually and download a PDF from an accessible Car Check report.

A shared spreadsheet can have a wider audience than the original report. Only include information you intend those readers to see; a saved report link still requires the report owner’s access.
