SMTP email delivery
Email delivery uses the configured SMTP/report email account. Standard templates, custom templates, automatic triggers and pickup instructions are managed under Settings → Email Templates.
Configure SMTP here, then manage customer messages in Email Templates.
Secure online invoice payments
Create a fresh Stripe Checkout session for an outstanding invoice. Stripe webhooks reconcile successful payments back into the HireFlow ledger once.
No test run.
Live machine hours and GPS locations
Pull engine-hour readings and current locations from Radius Kinesis Pro. Mapped assets show a clickable map location.
Each machine is mapped using its Radius asset/device ID. Location updates run automatically on the HireFlow server.
No sync run.
Optional AI help, image review and document reading
Choose built-in guided help or connect your own OpenAI account for AI answers and follow-up questions. Workspace record lookup is optional and follows staff permissions.
AI API usage is paid through your OpenAI account. Inspection image review remains a separate feature; staff make the final damage decisions.
Automatic preferred-supplier replenishment
When available stock falls below a part's minimum level, HireFlow creates one open reorder and emails the preferred supplier from the server.
Email credentials are configured in Customer Communications and stored encrypted on the HireFlow server. Duplicate emails are suppressed while an open reorder already exists for the part.
No test run.
Automatic booking and payment synchronisation
Automatically import new and updated Booqable orders into HireFlow, including drafts, reservations, status changes and paid state.
HireFlow registers its secure Booqable v4 webhook automatically and periodically checks the API to recover any missed events. Map each HireFlow asset to its Booqable product/item ID in the asset editor.
Automatic sync status will appear here.
Automatic temporary booking access codes
When enabled Collection Instructions are ready to send, HireFlow creates one secure temporary PIN on every configured Tuya lock and inserts it into the customer email.
The PIN starts 24 hours before the booking pickup time and expires 24 hours after its return time. Codes are encrypted at rest, protected from stale browser saves and can be revealed, retried or revoked by Managers and Admins from the booking.
Public availability + online booking holds
Link your website to the HireFlow public booking page or availability API. Customers can only select an asset that is available for their chosen dates.
Online bookings immediately hold the selected dates to prevent double booking, but remain Pending until staff confirm them.
Inspection photographs
When run locally, evidence is retained in IndexedDB on the device. When run through the included Node server, photos are uploaded to the server evidence folder and records are synced to the server state file.
Upload the master pre-hire customer agreement and manage electronic customer acceptance.
Upload PDF versions and choose the agreement sent to new customers.
No agreement uploaded.
Automatically request an electronic signature when staff create a new customer.
When booking hire agreements are enabled, booking readiness requires the agreement linked to that booking. When disabled, HireFlow uses the customer's signed pre-hire agreement instead.
If email is not configured, HireFlow still creates the customer agreement request so staff can send it later.
Previous versions are retained so historical customer signatures stay linked to the exact document they accepted.
Manage automatic staff welcome emails, customer messages and booking pickup instructions.
These instructions are inserted into the Collection Instructions email after agreement and payment readiness checks pass.
Booking Confirmation and Collection Instructions automations are disabled by default and can be enabled from their templates below.
Set events, timing and booking conditions separately from the message text.
Existing automatic emails are listed in Email workflows, including optional pickup and return reminders.
