Run a car or vehicle repair workshop on the standard Odoo Repairs, Fleet, Sales, Inventory and Calendar apps: book appointments, receive the vehicle, inspect it, quote the customer, let the mechanics record their time, use spare parts from stock, invoice and hand the vehicle back.
Key Features
- Workshop appointments — Calendar of bookings with opening hours, open days and a number of workshop bays; overbooking is refused.
- Vehicle check-in — Check in an appointment in one click: the job card gets the vehicle, the complaint and one job per booked service.
- Inspection checklist — Configurable check points with Good / Needs Attention / Urgent results, findings and recommended services.
- Quotation and customer approval — The standard Repairs quotation carries parts and labour; confirming it confirms the job card.
- Mechanic jobs with a timer — Start, pause and finish jobs from the job card or from My Jobs; every minute is recorded per mechanic.
- Spare parts from stock — Parts use the standard repair stock moves: availability, reservation and consumption.
- Labour billed right — Estimated hours are quoted, recorded hours are billed when the job is finished (a setting).
- Hand-over and history — Odometer at check-in and hand-over written to the Fleet odometer log, workshop history on each vehicle, printable job card.
