Field Service

Estimated reading: 2 minutes 286 views

Odoo Field Service helps teams manage on-site work such as installations, repairs and maintenance visits. It suits businesses that send technicians or engineers out to customer sites and need to track tasks, time, products used and reports from a single system.

What Field Service does

Each on-site visit is tracked as a task, which can be created manually, from a confirmed sales order, or from a helpdesk ticket. Field workers can log the products they use, follow a planned itinerary between jobs, and complete worksheets to record what was done.

Main capabilities

  • Manual and automatic task creation, including from sales orders and helpdesk tickets.
  • A product catalogue and default warehouse so materials used on-site update stock and invoices automatically.
  • Map based itinerary planning to help technicians move between jobs.
  • Configurable worksheet templates for recording work done on-site.
