Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it send storage fee notices to vehicle owners automatically?

No. Every notice is drafted and left unsent in Gmail. A human reviews and approves each notice before it is sent, because storage fee notices can carry legal obligations.

How does it know when to generate a notice?

You configure the storage days threshold in the workflow setup. WebRun compares each vehicle's storage duration from Towbook against that threshold and drafts a notice once it is crossed.

What if the vehicle owner has already arranged pickup?

Vehicles cleared from active storage in Towbook are excluded from the run, so owners who have arranged retrieval are not sent a notice.
