Hello, I've a question
Let's say I have a transport company. I have 100 trucks and one of them is damaged. I must take apart the cabin to send it to the workshop. And then the cabin back to my garage, and I put it back to the truck. Now, how can I achieve this in Odoo (16 CE version)? My approach right now is like this:

  1. Make 2 new Operation Types called "Dismantle" and "Back to the Truck"
  2. Make 2 new locations: Truck (Vendor Location) and Out Garage (Customer Location)
  3. The Dismantle Operation is from "Truck" to "WH/Stock"
  4. The Back to the Truck Operation is from "WH/Stock" to "Out Garage"
  5. First, I made new transfer from Dismantle operation (D0001) -> Made a Service purchase from Purchase Module (P0001)-> Made a landed Cost (LC/2024/0001) -> then took the cabin out with "Back to the Truck" Operation.

Is this method correct or is there a better alternative?

If your requirement is to make inventory transfers and track parts of the truck, you might also want to evaluate repairs app. This would allow for the removal/ replacement of parts ( in your case cabin).

If this is your own trucks, look into the Fleet Management app. Its should support you needs.

It is not a good solution to have fixed assets as stock managed.

Hello, what features or menu that cover my needs in the fleet apps?

It doesn't integrate with the Purchase App or Accounting, right? So, it's like for the internal notes?

Of course it is integrated with Purchase and accounting. That is the strenght of an ERP system. Everything intergrated.
You find out when you read the documentation.
Readin documentation and go through training videos is always recommended when you start working with a new module or functionality. It will save you a lot of time.
Good Luck.

Hello, Lars. I already read the docs and watch their videos. I even try it on runbot. But, still, the Service Cost does not connect to Purchase or Invoicing.
