DriveOn Safety Inspections

Forward your DriveOn safety inspection PDFs to Wenmar Pro and have the results added to the vehicle's record automatically.

Contents

Wenmar Pro connects to DriveOn, the Ontario safety inspection system. When you complete a safety inspection in DriveOn, you forward the PDF to your Wenmar Pro address and the results — certificate number, expiry date, and pass/fail — are added to the vehicle’s record automatically.

💡 You’ll need

  • A DriveOn portal account at driveonportal.com
  • Owner or manager access to set up the connection

Setting Up DriveOn

Step 1: Open the DriveOn settings

Go to Settings → Integrations → DriveOn.

Step 2: Copy your forwarding address

Wenmar Pro gives your shop a special email address (like safety+your-shop@replies.wenmarpro.com). Click Copy to copy it.

Step 3: Enter your station number

Enter your Station Number — your MTO Vehicle Inspection Centre number, found on DriveOn inspection certificates. This routes inspections to the right location, which matters if you have more than one shop. Click Save.

Step 4: Set up forwarding

In your email (Gmail, Outlook, or another provider), set up a rule that forwards emails from driveonportal.com to your Wenmar Pro forwarding address. The DriveOn settings page has step-by-step instructions for Gmail and Outlook.

How It Works

  1. You complete a safety inspection in DriveOn.
  2. DriveOn emails the inspection report or certificate to your registered email.
  3. Your email rule forwards it to your Wenmar Pro address.
  4. Wenmar Pro reads the PDF and updates the vehicle’s record with the result and expiry date.

Where the Results Show Up

  • Vehicle record — The vehicle’s Safety Inspection section shows the Annual Expires date, color-coded (green = valid, amber = expiring soon, red = expired).
  • DriveOn settings — The Recent Activity table shows each inspection with the vehicle, result (PASS or FAIL), odometer, and when it was ingested.
  • Service advisors — Advisors get a notification when an inspection comes in, so they can act on a failed inspection right away.

Troubleshooting

  • Nothing shows up — Check that your email rule is forwarding from driveonportal.com and that you used the full forwarding address (including the +your-shop part).
  • Gmail verification — When you add the forwarding address in Gmail, Gmail sends a confirmation email. Wenmar Pro forwards it to your admins so you can click the confirmation link.
  • A vehicle wasn’t matched — Wenmar Pro matches by VIN, then plate. If it can’t find the vehicle, it creates one (or a placeholder customer named “DriveOn Unassigned”).
