The problem
Preventive work planned without production knowing, and an urgent order is blocked; an undeclared breakdown, and the schedule promises impossible lead times.

In Odoo Community
- Maintenance requests have a scheduled date and a calendar view.
- A work center can be blocked manually, with a stoppage reason.
- The automatic link between a maintenance request and the work center belongs to Enterprise.
A simple rule
Each week, maintenance and production review the request calendar and the orders of the work centers concerned together. The block is set at the time of the intervention and lifted when it closes.
Limits
Blocking a work center does not automatically reschedule orders that are already planned: the trade-off remains human.
