Identify the property, reported issue and requesting contact before deciding who may authorize the work. Check whether the service falls within an existing agreement or requires separate approval, then assign a responsible coordinator. Preserve the approval boundary when handing the task to an employee or an external trade for delivery.
Understand the decision
A resident can report a fault without controlling the owner's budget. The property manager may approve a limited investigation but require another decision for replacement work. Intake should collect enough context to route the request while avoiding the assumption that a submitted form authorizes unrestricted spending.
Work through the requirements
- Identify property and contact roles.
- Check agreement coverage and approval limits.
- Assign one coordinator for the handoff.
| Record or decision | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Service request | Preserves the report and property reference. |
| Approval record | States authorized work and its boundary. |
| Delivery assignment | Names the responsible employee or contractor. |

Watch for this failure
Routing a request to a contractor does not resolve who approves cost or verifies completion. Keep one coordinating owner and preserve the authorization evidence throughout the handoff, including any subsequent expansion of the work.
Continue the evaluation
This example defines what to verify, rather than promising a particular Odoo feature. Keep a record of the demonstrated result, configuration, unresolved gaps and person who accepts it.
