Odoo ERP for Field Service & Contracting
Job costing, purchase orders, and field service scheduling live in one system, so project profitability is never pieced together after the fact.
Where It Breaks Down
Scheduling by Phone and Whiteboard
Dispatch happens over phone calls and a whiteboard, so nobody has a real-time view of who's where and what's next.
Job Costs Scattered Across Systems
Labor, materials, and subcontractor costs live in different spreadsheets, so real job profitability isn't known until long after it closes.
Change Orders Lost in Email
A scope change gets agreed over email or a text message, and never makes it onto the invoice or the job cost record.
How Odoo Fits
From the first dispatch to the final invoice, a job stays one record instead of four disconnected ones.
Field Service
Scheduling and dispatch for on-site work, visible in real time and synced with inventory and invoicing as jobs happen.
Project
Every job tracked as a project, with labor, materials, and subcontractor costs rolling up to real-time profitability.
Purchase
Materials and subcontractor purchase orders tied directly to the job they belong to, not a general expense line.
Invoicing
Progress billing and change orders that flow straight from the field into an invoice, with nothing re-keyed by hand.
Common Questions
Can technicians see their schedule from the field?
Yes. Field Service integrates with a mobile app so technicians see their assigned jobs, customer details, and job history from their phone, and can log completion, parts used, and notes on the spot.
Can it handle job costing across labor, materials, and subcontractors?
Yes. Every cost type rolls up to the same job or project, so real profitability is visible while work is still in progress, not just at close.
How are change orders handled?
A change order can be logged directly against the job, adjusting the budget and generating the additional billing, so it's never lost between a phone call and the final invoice.
Do you work with contractors who bill progress payments?
Yes. Progress billing against a contract, tied to milestones or percentage complete, is a standard part of how we configure this for contracting businesses.
