About this Product
ECOSIRE builds, installs and supports a purpose-built Odoo quality module that turns the standard Quality app into a full nonconformance-to-CAPA management system with structured 8D problem-solving. This is a build-to-order engagement — not an instant apps.odoo.com download. After purchase, our Odoo engineers scope your ISO 9001 / IATF 16949 / AS9100 requirements, develop the module against your Odoo 17, 18 or 19 database (Community or Enterprise), and hand over working code plus training within a typical one working week lead time.
At the core, the module extends Odoo's ORM with new models (models.Model) for Nonconformance Reports (NCR), CAPA cases and 8D disciplines (D1-D8), each wired into your existing quality.alert, mrp.production, stock.picking and product records. Computed fields (@api.depends) roll up open-action counts, overdue flags and containment status; automated actions and server actions escalate late corrective actions and notify the responsible team via Odoo's chatter and activity scheduler. A guided workflow moves each nonconformance from capture through containment, root-cause analysis, corrective and preventive action, verification of effectiveness and closure — with the full audit trail Odoo's mail.thread already provides.
Quality engineers get the problem-solving tools they expect: 5-Why chains, fishbone (Ishikawa) cause categories, and an 8D report structured exactly as customers and auditors want to see it. Access is governed by ir.model.access.csv plus record rules so operators, quality engineers and auditors each see only what their role permits, and QWeb PDF reports produce clean NCR forms, CAPA summaries and complete 8D documents for customer submission and audit evidence. External systems can create and query nonconformances through Odoo's XML-RPC / JSON-RPC API. Everything is delivered as a maintainable custom addon with a clean __manifest__.py, migrations, and documentation — supported by ECOSIRE and upgradeable across Odoo versions.
What you get
- Complete custom Odoo addon source code (models, views, security, reports, data) with a clean __manifest__.py, installed and verified on your Odoo 17, 18 or 19 database
- Configuration of your defect categories, dispositions, cause categories, CAPA stages and 8D template to match your quality manual
- ir.model.access.csv and record rules configured for your operator / quality engineer / manager / auditor roles
- QWeb report templates for NCR, CAPA and the customer-ready 8D document, branded to your company
- Technical and end-user documentation covering data model, workflow, security matrix and how to extend picklists
- Live training session(s) for your quality team plus a recorded walkthrough for future onboarding
- Post-go-live support window with bug fixes and questions answered, and a defined path for version upgrades
- Optional XML-RPC / JSON-RPC integration spec and sample scripts if external systems must raise or read nonconformances
Who this is for
Quality Manager in regulated manufacturing
Owns the ISO 9001 / IATF 16949 / AS9100 quality management system and needs a defensible, audit-ready NCR-to-CAPA process with real closure evidence rather than spreadsheets and shared drives.
Quality / Reliability Engineer
Runs the day-to-day investigations — 5-Why, fishbone, containment, root cause — and wants 8D discipline tracking with owners and due dates living inside the same Odoo where production and inventory data already sit.
Supplier Quality / Customer-Complaint Handler
Fields customer complaints and supplier nonconformances and must turn each one into a traceable corrective action and a shareable, professionally formatted 8D report for the customer within deadline.
How Quality Control: NCR, CAPA & 8D Compares
| Criterion | ECOSIRE | Custom Build | Competitor | Odoo Native |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| NCR-to-CAPA lifecycle (containment → root cause → corrective/preventive → verification → closure) | Complete, structured multi-stage workflow with owners and due dates | Possible but you design and build every stage from scratch | Varies; many cover NCR but not full CAPA verification | Partial support |
| Structured 8D (D1-D8) problem-solving with team, deadlines and customer-ready report | Included | Only if separately specified and built | Rarely as a disciplined D1-D8 framework | Not included |
| Root-cause tools (5-Why, fishbone/Ishikawa categories) | Included | Buildable but adds scope | Partial support | Not included |
| Integration with existing quality alerts, MOs, lots/serials and suppliers | Deep, native links into your production data | You wire every relation yourself | Often loosely coupled or standalone | Partial support |
| ISO 9001 / IATF 16949 audit-ready records and PDF reports | QWeb NCR, CAPA and 8D reports plus immutable chatter audit trail | Depends entirely on build quality | Partial support | Partial support |
| Role-based security (operator / engineer / manager / auditor) | ir.model.access.csv + record rules tailored to your roles | Must be designed and tested per role | Generic access groups | Partial support |
| Tailored to your quality manual and configurable master data | Configured to your procedures during build; picklists editable without code | Included | Fixed to vendor's model | Not included |
| Delivery model and ownership | Build-to-order in one working week; you own the source, ECOSIRE supports and upgrades | Long internal build; you own it but carry all risk | Instant install but no tailoring; vendor-dependent | Included |
Frequently Asked Questions about Quality Control: NCR, CAPA & 8D
How long does delivery take and what is the process?
This is a build-to-order engagement, not an instant download. Typical lead time is one working week depending on scope. After purchase we run a short scoping call to confirm your quality manual, roles and 8D template, then develop the module against your Odoo database, deliver it on a staging environment for your review, and install to production once you sign off. You receive working addon code, configuration, documentation and training at handover.
What support and updates do I get after go-live?
Every engagement includes a post-go-live support window during which we fix bugs and answer usage questions. Because you receive the full addon source, the module is yours to keep and extend. We also provide a defined upgrade path so the module keeps working when you move between Odoo 17, 18 and 19, and we can offer an ongoing support/maintenance arrangement if you prefer us to own upgrades and enhancements long term.
Does this work on Odoo Community or only Enterprise?
It runs on both. The module is built on standard Odoo framework primitives (models.Model, ORM fields, ir.model.access.csv, record rules, QWeb reports, automated actions) that exist in Community and Enterprise alike. If your workflow benefits from Enterprise-only features such as the full Quality app, approvals or Studio, we design to leverage them; otherwise the module stands on its own on Community.
How is this different from Odoo's built-in Quality app?
Odoo's Quality app is strong at inspection points and quality alerts, but it does not provide a structured, multi-stage CAPA lifecycle or a disciplined 8D (D1-D8) problem-solving framework with verification of effectiveness and audit-ready reporting. This module adds those layers on top of — and integrated with — your existing quality alerts, so a failed inspection can become a fully documented NCR, CAPA and 8D without leaving Odoo.
Will it integrate with our existing Odoo data and external systems?
Yes. Nonconformances link directly to your products, lots/serials, manufacturing orders, stock pickings, suppliers and existing quality alerts, so investigations carry full production context. For external systems — MES, LIMS, supplier portals or another QMS — records can be created and queried through Odoo's standard XML-RPC / JSON-RPC API, and we provide an integration spec and sample scripts when that is in scope.
Can the workflow and forms be adapted to our specific quality procedures?
That is the point of build-to-order. Defect categories, dispositions, cause categories, CAPA stages, the 8D template and the report layouts are configured to match your quality manual and customer requirements. Master-data picklists are configurable without code, and larger workflow changes are scoped during delivery so the module reflects how your team actually works, not a generic template.
