This module adds fields to manage the weight and volume capacity in the vehicle model. It is also designed to be easily expandable, allowing the addition of other vehicle-specific capacities in the future as needed.
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 14.0Adds weight, volume and passenger capacity fields to vehicles and vehicle models in the Fleet app, with configurable units of measure. Users can record how much a vehicle can carry and see it on the vehicle and model forms.
This module extends the Fleet app so each vehicle model and each vehicle can store its own weight and carrying limits.
On a vehicle model (the template, e.g. a truck model), a new "Capacities" tab appears with: - Vehicle Weight - Weight Capacity (maximum weight the vehicle can support) - Volume Capacity (maximum volume it can support) - Passenger Capacity (maximum number of passengers) - A unit of measure for each of these
The vehicle model list view also shows these columns, which can be hidden with the optional-columns menu.
On an individual vehicle, the same values are shown on the form, but they are taken automatically from the vehicle model, so they cannot be typed directly on the vehicle.
In Fleet settings, three default units of measure can be chosen: one for weight and weight capacity, one for volume capacity and one for passenger capacity. These defaults are stored as system parameters and are used automatically when creating new vehicle models. The unit choices are restricted to the right kind of measure: weight units for weight, volume units for volume and unit-type measures for passengers.
The module only adds fields, views and settings; it does not add menus, reports, emails or scheduled actions.

terminal Installation and usage
OCA documentation · Odoo 14.0Usage
Source · Odoo 14.0To use this module, it first needs to be installed. Upon installation, the system will automatically detect the default units of measure (UOM) for vehicle weight, volume, and passenger capacity, and assign them to vehicle models accordingly.
The module enhances the Odoo Fleet Management system by allowing administrators to configure default UOMs for:
- Vehicle Weight (tons)
- Vehicle Volume Capacity (cubic meters)
- Passenger Capacity (number of passengers)
Key Features:
- Automatic Assignment of Default UOMs: After installation, the system automatically assigns default UOMs to vehicle models based on the standard UOMs (tons, cubic meters, and units).
- Configurable UOMs: The administrator can update the default UOMs for vehicle weight, volume, and passenger capacity through the system settings. Changes made to the default UOMs will be applied to all new vehicle models automatically.
- Editable Vehicle Model UOMs: While vehicle models use the default UOMs upon creation, the administrator can still manually override the UOMs for specific models if needed.
