Whenever a car wash is entered into CARS+, a record is written to the Vehicle History File. The Vehicle Wash History Report examines those records and furnishes a report based on the parameters entered by the user.

To access the Vehicle Wash History Report, type WASH (RET) at any menu "OPTION:" field or the appropriate line number on the History/Maintenance Menu. The screen will then display:
