Hibou Odoo Suite: Maintenance Modules

Odoo's Maintenance application provides an important infrastructure for managing your organization's equipment and maintenance requests.

Equipments

Equipments are created to track items and, if applicable, the employee that has possession of the item. The Kanban view provides a fast overview of the current state of equipments, including open maintenance requests and the next scheduled preventative maintenance date.

Equipments can also be assigned to categories which, by default, primarily provides a mechanism for sorting and grouping.

Maintenance Requests

Out of the box, Odoo's Maintenance app provides the ability to set the Preventative Maintenance Frequency and Maintenance Duration.

Based on the number of days entered for Preventative Maintenance Frequency and the number of hours entered for Maintenance Duration, the maintenance request will be generated and a calendar event will be created for the Responsible user.

From there, the requests can be managed via a Kanban view, moving it through the appropriate stages.
