Turn technician hours into provable profit for every bay
Automatically compute utilization, efficiency and productivity for every technician, every day, and see at a glance who is pulling their weight — and whether your workshop is making money on the hours it is paying for.
The problem
A technician clocked in for 8 hours is not the same as 8 billable hours. The gap between hours attended, hours actually worked, and hours sold to the customer is where garage profit silently leaks — but that gap lives in disconnected repair orders, timesheets and the service manager’s head, so almost nobody in an independent shop ever calculates it.
The solution
Log attended, worked and sold hours once per technician per day and the app computes the three labour-efficiency ratios automatically, rolls them up into a benchmarking dashboard, turns the hours into a labour-cost and margin figure, and raises an alert the moment productivity drops below your threshold — all from inside Odoo, linked directly to your Repair Orders.
Everything you need to measure workshop profitability
Every capability below is implemented in the module.
Per-technician daily load records
Log attended, worked and sold hours for each technician, each day, with an automatic reference number so every entry can be cited and audited.
Automatic efficiency ratios
Utilization, efficiency and overall productivity percentages are calculated the instant hours are saved — no spreadsheet math.
Draft, Confirmed, Done workflow
Every record follows a clear status workflow with a full change-history audit trail, so only verified entries ever feed your reporting.
KPI dashboard and benchmarking
A graph-and-pivot dashboard plus a per-technician kanban rank technicians side by side, so the best and worst performers are obvious at a glance.
Low-productivity alerts
The moment a confirmed day falls below your productivity threshold, the technician’s manager gets an activity alert — the same day, not at month-end.
Weekly review reminders
A scheduled job checks the past week for technicians running under threshold and prompts the manager to hold a review — turning metrics into a management habit.
Labour cost and margin
Hours paid versus hours sold are translated into labour cost, sold value and margin on every record — the profit answer owners actually want, not just an hour count.
Two-way Repair Order integration
Jump from a load record to its Repair Order and back with one click; removing the Repair Order automatically cleans up its linked records. Works with Odoo’s own first-party Repair app — no third-party vendor lock-in.
Configurable thresholds and rates
Set your own productivity alert threshold and default billing rate from Settings — no code, no consultant needed.
How it works
Log the day
Record attended, worked and sold hours for a technician, optionally linked to a Repair Order.
Review the ratios
Utilization, efficiency and productivity percentages, plus labour cost and margin, calculate themselves instantly.
Confirm and monitor
Move the record through Draft, Confirmed and Done; a below-threshold day raises an alert for the manager automatically.
Benchmark and act
Compare technicians on the dashboard, review labour margin, and act on the weekly review reminder.
