Create new vehicles

Odoo’s Fleet app manages all vehicles and the accompanying documentation that comes with vehicle maintenance and driver’s records.

All vehicles are organized on the main Fleet dashboard. Each vehicle has its own vehicle form, which is displayed as a card in the kanban view, according to it’s status. Every vehicle form is displayed in its current corresponding kanban stage. The default stages are New Request, To Order, Ordered, Registered, Downgraded, Reserve, and Waiting List.

To add a new vehicle to the fleet, click the Create button, and a blank vehicle form loads. Enter the vehicle information in the vehicle form, then click Save.

Felder im Fahrzeugformular

  • Model: select the vehicle’s model from the drop-down menu. If the model is not listed, type in the model name and click either Create or Create and Edit.

  • Amtliches Kennzeichen: Geben Sie das Nummernschild des Fahrzeugs in das Feld ein.

  • Stichwörter: Wählen Sie ein beliebiges Stichwort aus dem Dropdown-Menü oder geben Sie ein neues Stichwort ein. Die Anzahl der Stichwörter, die Sie auswählen können, ist nicht begrenzt.

Bemerkung

The Model is the only required field on the new vehicle form. When a model is selected, other fields will appear on the vehicle form, and relevant information will auto-populate fields that apply to the model. If some of the fields do not appear, this may indicate there is no model selected.

Abschnitt „Fahrer“

Dieser Abschnitt des Fahrzeugformulars bezieht sich auf die Person, die das Fahrzeug derzeit fährt, sowie auf Pläne für einen zukünftigen Fahrerwechsel und den Zeitpunkt.

  • Driver: select the driver from the drop-down menu, or type in a new driver and click either Create or Create and Edit.

  • Mobility Card: if the selected driver has a mobility card listed on their employee card in the Employees application, the mobility card number will appear in this field. If there is no mobility card listed and one should be added, edit the employee card in the Employees application.

  • Future Driver: if the next driver for the vehicle is known, select the next driver from the drop-down menu, or type in the next driver and click either Create or Create and Edit.

  • Plan To Change Car: if the current driver set for this vehicle plans to change their vehicle, either because they are waiting on a new vehicle that is being ordered, or this is a temporary vehicle assignment and they know which vehicle they will be driving next, check this box. If the current driver does not plan to change their vehicle and use this current vehicle, do not check this box.

  • Assignment Date: select the date the vehicle will be available for another driver using the drop-down calendar. Select the date by navigating to the correct month and year using the ⬅️ (left arrow) and ➡️ (right arrow) icons, then click on the specific day. If this field is blank, this indicates the vehicle is currently available and can be reassigned to another driver. If it is populated, the vehicle will not be available to assign to another driver until the date entered.

Wichtig

A driver does not have to be an employee, but a driver must be listed in the Contacts application. When creating a new driver, the driver is added to the Contacts application, not the Employees application.

This section of the vehicle form relates to the physical vehicle, it’s various properties, when it was added, where it is located, and who is managing it.

  • Fleet Manager: select the fleet manager from the drop-down menu, or type in a new fleet manager and click either Create or Create and Edit.

  • Location: type in the location for the vehicle in the field. The most common scenario for when this field would be populated is if a company has several office locations. The typical office location where the vehicle is located would be the location entered.
