Each ERA-IGNITE application features an advanced graphical user interface (GUI) and architecture to help dealerships further improve the productivity of their employees and the profitability of their operations.

"The new functions and enhancements in ERA-IGNITE are the latest examples of our capabilities to deliver products that improve a dealership's operating efficiencies and provide more insightful analytics about the dealer's business. It's one more way to help dealers transform how they work inside the dealership as they serve customers more efficiently and effectively."
One of the newest features of ERA-IGNITE is Retail Management Intelligence, a single point for a dealership's reporting needs. Retail Management Intelligence puts critical business information at dealership decision-makers' fingertips. As a complement to the standard application reports and user-defined reports available in Retail Management Intelligence, the Dashboard Reporting feature offers decision makers up-to-the-minute snapshots of dealership departments and critical business processes.
Reynolds also has added a number of new applications and enhancements to ERA-IGNITE for 2012, including new and used vehicle posting screens in Accounting, a new Service application to help dealers better manage service appointments, and the Technician Dispatching application.
