FAQ

FAQ

Which Odoo versions / editions are supported?

This module targets Odoo 19 Enterprise only. It requires the official Field Service app (industry_fsm) and does not work on Odoo Community.

Does this work on Odoo Community?

No. Gantt Field Service works only with the Enterprise Edition because Field Service (industry_fsm) is an Enterprise app.

Do I need Odoo Enterprise Gantt?

No. You need Enterprise Field Service, but not Enterprise Gantt. This is a standalone interactive Gantt built on standard Odoo Web.

Who publishes and supports this app?

NexGen Solutions publishes the suite. Support email: nexgensolutionsodoo@gmail.com.

Does Gantt invent workflow states like Confirm / Done / Approve?

No. NexGen Gantt is safety-first: adapters write schedule/planning fields only. Native Odoo forms and buttons remain the source of truth for workflow.

Are writes protected by ACLs and record rules?

Yes. Timeline reads and writes use the current user’s access rights. There is no sudo bypass for business data.

What happens if two users edit at the same time?

Optimistic concurrency checks apply. With NexGen Gantt Collaboration installed, presence chips and edit locks further reduce collisions.

Which time scales are available?

Hour, Day, Week, Month, Quarter and Year, with zoom in/out, reset zoom and zoom-to-fit.

Can I save my preferred Gantt layout?

Yes. Saved layouts store scale and polish options per user so you can reload your preferred view quickly.

What export formats are available?

Common formats include PDF, PNG, XLSX and JSON. Depending on the installed suite exchange gateway, XML/XER and optional admin-gated iCal may also be available.

Is the UI mobile / tablet friendly?

The shared chrome is responsive. For the best phone/tablet experience install NexGen Gantt Mobile (compact toolbar, touch drag, optional PWA).

Can AI help me reschedule?

Install NexGen Gantt AI Planner. It supports natural-language intents with preview-first apply through adapter validators.

How do I get the full suite at once?

Install NexGen Gantt All-in-One. It pulls Base, all business adapters, Collaboration, AI Planner and Mobile.

Is multi-company supported?

Yes, within normal Odoo multi-company rules. Users only see and edit records allowed by their company and record rules.

Will uninstalling remove my Odoo business data?

Uninstalling a Gantt module removes the module’s menus/actions/helpers. Native Project/MRP/Sales/etc. business records remain.

Where can I ask for customization or support?

Email nexgensolutionsodoo@gmail.com with your Odoo version, module technical name and a short description of the need.

What does NexGen Gantt Field Service do?

It provides a technician dispatch Gantt with travel-time awareness, dependencies, load histogram and drag reschedule.

What is travel time used for?

Travel hours are displayed on bars and rolled into technician load summaries for routing-aware dispatch.

Does Gantt change FSM stages?

No. Stage and intervention workflow remain native Field Service.

Do I need Project Gantt?

Yes. syn_gantt_fsm depends on syn_gantt_project and industry_fsm.

Can I export the dispatch board?

Yes β€” PDF, PNG, XLSX, JSON and related formats from the toolbar.

Can I filter one technician?

Yes β€” filter by technician or view all, and group by technician or status.

Where do I set travel hours?

On the FSM task form Routing fields provided by the module.

Is there a technician load histogram?

Yes β€” use it to balance crew workload.

Are dependencies and critical path supported?

Yes β€” dependency links and critical-path cues are available.

Can field supervisors use phones?

Yes β€” install NexGen Gantt Mobile for hub deep-links and touch-friendly chrome.

Does AI support FSM scheduling intents?

Yes with AI Planner installed.

Will Collaboration lock a task while dispatching?

Yes β€” locks help prevent two dispatchers from dragging the same intervention.

Does Gantt invent FSM worksheet answers?

No. Worksheets and stage changes stay in native FSM.

Can I see partner address in tooltips?

Yes β€” tooltips can include partner/address/travel details.

Is map routing fully automatic?

Travel hours support routing-aware planning; full map optimization remains outside this Gantt board.
