auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 17.0Adds a secondary status (substate) to repair orders, so you can track finer progress inside each repair stage and filter or group repair orders by it.
This module extends repair orders with an extra status called a substate, which sits inside the normal repair stages. On the repair order form, a new status bar appears in the header showing the substate, and you can click it to move the order to another substate. The substate is also shown as a column in the repair orders list and can be used in the search filters, including a group-by option to group repair orders by substate.
A new substate category is created for repair orders, with two predefined target stages: New (draft) and Confirmed (confirmed). Each substate is linked to one of these repair stages.
Odoo checks automatically that the substate you pick matches the current repair stage. If you select a substate that belongs to a different stage, an error message blocks the change and tells you which stage the substate is meant for.
When the substate changes, if that substate has an email template configured, Odoo posts it as an internal note on the repair order. The module touches the repair order model and the shared substate configuration model.
