What is Garage & Auto Repair Workshop Management?

Build-to-order Odoo workshop OS: repair tickets, VIN vehicle profiles, technician job cards, parts requisition, estimates and invoicing. Built to order by ECOSIRE for Odoo 17, 18, 19 — indicative price from $999.00 USD; request a quote for a scoped proposal.

Key Features

Repair-order intake wizard capturing customer, vehicle and reported complaint, with a full state machine (draft -> diagnosis -> estimate -> approved -> in progress -> QC -> ready -> invoiced) rendered in Kanban and list views
Vehicle profile model storing VIN, licence plate, make/model/year, engine, colour, odometer/mileage and complete per-vehicle service history linked to the res.partner contact
Diagnosis and multi-point inspection checklists (brakes, tyres, fluids, electricals) recorded per repair order with pass/fail/advisory flags and technician notes
Job-card generation assigning specific tasks and labour hours to individual mechanics/technicians, with supervisor sign-off gating before work is marked complete
Spare-parts requisition lines tied to Odoo Inventory (product templates and stock.move) so fitted parts deplete on-hand stock and feed reordering rules
Repair estimates with itemised labour and parts, computed subtotals, taxes and margin via @api.depends fields, plus a customer approval flow (accept/reject with reason)
One-click conversion of an approved estimate into an Odoo sales order / invoice through native Sales and Accounting, preserving lines and taxes
Branded QWeb PDF reports for the estimate, technician job card and final tax invoice, styled to your garage's letterhead
Role-based security via ir.model.access.csv and record rules — service advisor, mechanic, parts store and supervisor profiles each scoped to what they may view and edit
Automated actions and scheduled crons for approval-reminder nudges, ready-for-collection alerts and stale-order escalation to the supervisor
Bay/ramp and technician workload views so the supervisor can balance the day's jobs and spot bottlenecks
Warranty and comeback tracking that links a new repair order back to a previous job on the same vehicle for no-charge rework
XML-RPC / JSON-RPC endpoints exposing repair orders and vehicle lookups for website booking forms, SMS/WhatsApp status updates or a mobile app
Dashboards and pivot/graph analytics on revenue per bay, average turnaround time, parts vs labour mix and technician productivity
Optional customer portal access so vehicle owners can view their estimate, approve it online and download their invoice

About this Product

Garage & Auto Repair Workshop Management is a build-to-order Odoo application that ECOSIRE designs, builds, installs and supports for your workshop — this is not an instant apps.odoo.com download. We ship a tailored, production-grade module for Odoo 17, 18 or 19 (Community or Enterprise) that turns your garage into a single operating system: every vehicle that rolls onto the ramp gets a repair ticket, a diagnosis, a costed estimate, a technician job card and — once approved — a clean invoice, all threaded through Odoo's native chatter, activities and accounting.

At the core sits a dedicated repair-order model built on Odoo's ORM (models.Model) with a proper state machine — draft, diagnosis, awaiting approval, in progress, quality check, ready, invoiced, closed — driving the workflow through the Kanban and list views your service advisors already understand. Each order links to a vehicle profile (VIN, plate, make/model/year, mileage/odometer, engine, colour) and to the customer's Odoo contact, so a returning car instantly surfaces its full service history. Computed fields (@api.depends) roll up labour lines, parts lines, taxes and margins in real time, and QWeb reports generate branded estimates, job cards and final invoices as PDFs.

Because it is built the Odoo way, the module respects everything your ERP already does. Spare-parts requisitions consume from real Odoo Inventory stock (stock.move / product templates), so parts fitted to a car deplete on-hand quantity and trigger reordering rules. Approved estimates flow into Odoo Sales/Accounting for invoicing and payment. Access is governed by ir.model.access.csv plus record rules so front-desk staff, mechanics and supervisors each see only what their role permits, and automated actions (server actions / scheduled crons) handle reminders, overdue-approval nudges and status notifications. A clean XML-RPC / JSON-RPC surface lets your booking website, SMS gateway or mobile app read and write orders.

ECOSIRE handles the full lifecycle: requirements workshop, data model design, build against your Odoo version, migration of existing vehicle/customer data where available, deployment to your server or Odoo.sh, hands-on training and a post-launch support window. Typical delivery is one working week depending on scope and integrations.

What you get

  • Complete, installable Odoo module (source code with __manifest__.py, models, views, security and QWeb reports) targeted at your Odoo 17, 18 or 19 Community or Enterprise instance
  • A requirements and process-mapping workshop where we capture your intake, diagnosis, approval and invoicing flow before any code is written
  • Deployment and configuration on your server or Odoo.sh, including menus, user groups, access rights and integration wiring to Inventory, Sales and Accounting
  • Migration/import of existing vehicle and customer records into the new vehicle profile and contact models where source data is available
  • Branded QWeb report templates (estimate, job card, final invoice) styled to your garage's letterhead
  • Written documentation — admin/config guide plus a short end-user manual for advisors, mechanics and supervisors
  • Live training sessions for front-desk, workshop and management users, recorded for future onboarding
  • A post-launch support and bug-fix window with a named ECOSIRE contact, plus a quote for an ongoing support/maintenance retainer

Who this is for

Independent car repair garage owner

Runs a small-to-mid multi-bay garage and is drowning in paper job cards and WhatsApp approvals. Needs every car ticketed, every estimate approved on record, and parts and labour flowing straight into invoices so nothing leaks and month-end is clean.

Auto body & collision shop manager

Coordinates insurance-driven repairs where a documented inspection, a costed estimate and a customer/insurer approval trail are mandatory. Wants inspection checklists, versioned estimates and QWeb-branded documents that stand up to insurer scrutiny.

Dealership workshop / service-centre supervisor

Manages a bank of technicians and needs job-card assignment, sign-off control, technician-productivity analytics and warranty/comeback tracking, all sitting inside the same Odoo ERP that already runs the dealership's inventory and accounting.

Frequently Asked Questions about Garage & Auto Repair Workshop Management

Is this an instant download I can install right away?

No. This is a build-to-order module that ECOSIRE designs, builds, installs and supports specifically for your workshop and your Odoo version. It is not an existing apps.odoo.com download you install yourself. After purchase we run a requirements workshop, build the module, and deploy it to your instance.

How long does delivery take?

Typical delivery is one working week from the requirements workshop, depending on scope, the number of integrations (Inventory, Sales, Accounting, SMS/website booking) and whether we migrate existing vehicle and customer data. We agree a milestone timeline up front and keep you updated through Odoo's activity and chatter tools during the build.

What support and updates do I get after launch?

Every build includes a post-launch support and bug-fix window with a named ECOSIRE contact who resolves defects and helps your team settle in. After that we offer an optional support/maintenance retainer covering bug fixes, small enhancements, and compatibility updates when you upgrade Odoo — for example moving from 17 to 18 or 19. You own the module code, so you are never locked in.

Which Odoo versions and editions does it work with?

We build for Odoo 17, 18 and 19, on either Community or Enterprise. The module is written against your target version's ORM, views and reporting engine, and integrates with Inventory, Sales and Accounting whether those are the Community modules or Enterprise apps. Tell us your version and edition and we scope the build to match.

Does it connect to my existing inventory and accounting, or is it a separate silo?

It is fully integrated, not a silo. Parts requisitions consume from your real Odoo Inventory stock via stock moves, so fitted parts deplete on-hand quantity and trigger your reordering rules. Approved estimates convert into native Odoo sales orders and invoices, flowing straight into Accounting with the correct taxes. It reuses your existing customers, products and chart of accounts.

Can customers approve estimates online and can other systems read the data?

Yes. We can enable an optional customer portal so vehicle owners view and approve their estimate online and download invoices. The module also exposes Odoo's XML-RPC / JSON-RPC API, so a website booking form, SMS/WhatsApp status service or a mobile app can create repair orders, look up vehicles by plate or VIN, and read job status.
