This module provides an empty general settings section for the maintenance configuration.
This is a technical module and it doesn't provide any new functionality. Extend this module to add general settings related to the maintenance app.
When extending the general settings view, here is an example of how the code would look like:
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 16.0Adds a Maintenance section to Odoo's General Settings and a Settings menu entry under Maintenance Configuration, giving equipment managers a dedicated place to configure the Maintenance app.
This module does not add any business feature by itself; it prepares the ground for other modules that want to add maintenance-related options to Odoo's settings.
What users see: - A new "Maintenance" block appears inside the General Settings screen (Settings app), visible only to users in the Equipment Manager group. - A new "General Settings" menu item is added under the Maintenance app's Configuration menu, also restricted to Equipment Managers.
What it does: - The settings block is currently empty: it only shows the heading "Maintenance" and an empty container titled "Configure Maintenance". No options, fields, checks or automatic behaviours are added by this module. - The menu item opens the standard General Settings form filtered to the Maintenance app context.
Which areas it touches:
- It extends the settings screen based on res.config.settings and adds an action and menu entry pointing to that same model.
- It depends on the standard Maintenance app and reuses its Equipment Manager security group.
Because the code only defines an empty settings section and a menu shortcut, no calculations, validations, emails or scheduled jobs are introduced. Any real maintenance setting would come from another module that extends this one.
