Odoo is the world's easiest all-in-one management software.
It includes hundreds of business apps:
I have a question about the choice Odoo made on rental management between version 16 and 17.
v17 has introduced the concept of a single rental period on the quote, but i need to rent several products over different periods on the same quote.
We're talking about a seminar, for example, where a customer rents several rooms over different periods. He needs to sign a single quote. How does Odoo version 17 work in this case?
Thank you for your help,
With Odoo 17, Customers will need to review and sign one Quotation per period.
If your Customer insists on being able to sign a single document, you can create one with the Sign App that incorporates some or all of the PDF pages from each individual quotation (see the documentation about PDF splitting and merging).
We also understand not everyone will be excited over the change. It is of course possible to customize Odoo if you feel there is a strong ROI (cost / benefit ratio) for your requirement.
From the Release Notes at https://www.odoo.com/odoo-17-release-notes
The rental period of all products on a single order is now the same to simplify the flow. This does not prevent the pickup or return of products at different moments.
From the Product Owners discussing Odoo 16 - "Currently, we allow Users to define a rental period on each line, it allows more flexibility but it leads to complexity we want to get rid off in order to ease future improvements as this design prevents us from building a simple and powerful application. Problems with the current design include: period is required on Quotation Templates, optional/accessory products; rescheduling must be done line by line; we want to leverage the ability to add multiple products at once to an order [new feature]; we want to integrate rental and stock. When looking at four competing offerings: two of them allow only a single period; one has a single period in the back end while the front end allows a different period but it must start of the same date; the other supports different periods but with a very complex subproject concept."
When evolving Odoo, our Product Owners consider (among other things)

I have exactly the same issue. I wasn't aware of this change. Made the upgrade and can't use it anymore...
In our case, we were obliged to have several rental periods on our quotes.
We used the OCA resource booking module migrated to version 17 to deal with this issue.

1. Use the live chat to ask your questions.
2. The operator answers within a few minutes.
Same for me, at least giving us the choice to decide : same period for all products / or independant period per product would have been better.
Now it's very difficult to use this app. :-(
After the change, I can't use this app anymore. We need several periods on the same quote. Thank you
