In a company's production process, equipment plays a crucial role in improving workflow and productivity. Therefore, poor equipment maintenance causes a significant loss in business. Therefore, the Odoo16 maintenance module aids the business in carrying out proper maintenance on a variety of equipment.

The Odoo16 maintenance module offers two alternative types of maintenance processes. Corrective maintenance is the first, it is a proactive approach to repairing the equipment to restore performance and prevent further damage or interruption when an unexpected failure or breakdown occurs. Preventive maintenance is the second. It enhances performance while also extending the life of equipment. Preventive maintenance will automatically take place.

Let's examine how these two categories of maintenance took place. First, make a fresh item of equipment using the maintenance module.

Then develop a new machinery. Add the category and name of the equipment. Company name may be added. Names of the Maintenance Team and Technicians may be mentioned there. In the Owner area, users can specify the name of the employee to whom the equipment is allocated, and in the allocated Date field, users can specify the date on which the employee received the equipment. This window can provide information on the equipment's scrap date, usage location, and work center. The Description tab allows for the addition of a description of the equipment.

Product Information is the second tab. Here, details on the equipment are provided. This tab contains information on the equipment supplier, including Vendor Name, Vendor Reference, Equipment Model, and Equipment Serial Number. The date that a date becomes effective is known as the Effective Date. To determine the Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF), this date is used. Included in this part are the equipment's price and expiration date. Here, the equipment's effective date is set to June 1, 2023. There, users can also set the equipment's price and warranty expiration date.

The Maintenance tab comes next. Users can choose the Preventive Maintenance Frequency in days. The Next Preventive Maintenance date will be changed based on this frequency. Here, a frequency of 35 days has been established, meaning that the following preventive maintenance request will be generated automatically 35 days after the effective date. So, on July 7, 2023, the Next Preventive Maintenance was updated.

Corrective maintenance is a proactive approach to repairing the equipment to restore performance and prevent further damage or interruption when an unexpected failure or breakdown occurs. Therefore, users apply corrective maintenance to such unexpected failures.

Create a new Maintenance request to add a corrective maintenance.

Insert the Request. The category will automatically adjust based on the equipment users select. Corrective maintenance should be chosen as the maintenance type. It is possible to establish a Schedule Date, Time, and Duration for the maintenance.

Check the equipment after completing the maintenance request. The outcome of corrective maintenance is displayed on the maintenance tab. 

The user has entered a 30-day ‘Expected Mean Time Between Failure’ in this case. nonetheless, the system will automatically update the ‘Mean Time Between Failure’. The equipment will go into effect on June 1st, 2023. Therefore, the Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) is the number of days between the effective date and the most recent failure. On July 6th, this failure was the most recent. MTBF is thus 35 days.

Based on the most recent failure date and MTBF, the system calculates the Estimated next failure. This indicates that the Estimated next failure date is the ‘Latest failure Date + MTBF’. August 10th is thus here, 35 days after June 1st. The mean time for repairs is the length of time spent on maintenance. This has two maintenance requests, that are updated.
