The challenge
While the booking experience was straightforward, Renard & Fils faced challenges in their day-to-day operations
They needed to:
- Manage vehicle check-ins and check-outs efficiently
- Perform detailed vehicle inspections
- Document damages with photos
- Generate clear reports for customers
- Handle penalties and adjustments
Most of these processes were manual, leading to:
- Time-consuming operations
- Risk of missing information
- Lack of standardization across partners
The solution
Dasolo implemented a custom rental management layer on top of Odoo, designed to digitize and automate the full vehicle lifecycle
Digital check-in & check-out workflows
Dasolo developed structured workflows for both vehicle pickup and return:
- Guided forms for inspections
- Ability to upload photos directly
- Standardized process across all rentals
Each step ensures that all necessary information is captured consistently.
Automated PDF reports
For every check-in and check-out:
- A PDF report is automatically generated
- All data, including photos and inspection details, is included
- Customers receive a clear and professional document
This improves transparency and reduces disputes.
Penalty and adjustment management
The system includes:
- Automatic calculation of penalties
- Integration with accounting flows
- Generation of credit notes when needed
This ensures accurate and efficient financial handling.
Multi-partner ready system
Renard & Fils also uses the platform across multiple partners and garages. Dasolo implemented:
- A commission logic
- A system that can be reused and distributed
- A scalable structure for future growth
