Package: odoo-addon-product-logistics-uom
This module allows to choose an Unit Of Measure (UoM) for products weight and volume.
It can be set product per product for users in group_uom.Without this module, you only have the choice between Kg or Lb(s) and m³ for all the products.For some business cases, you need to express in more precise UoM than default ones like Liters
instead of M³.Even if you choose another UoM for the weight or volume, the system will still
store the value for these fields in the Odoo default UoM (Kg or Lb(s) and m³).
This ensures that the arithmetic operations on these fields are correct and
consistent with the rest of the addons.Once this addon is installed values stored into the initial Volume and Weight fields
on the product and product template models are no more rounded to the decimal
precision defined for these fields. This could lead to some side effects into
reportss where these fields are used. You can replace the fields by the new
ones provided by this addon to avoid this problem (product_volume and product_weight).
In any cases, since you use different UoM by product, you should most probably
modify your reportss to display the right UoM.Table of contentsInstallationConfigurationUsageBug TrackerCreditsAuthorsContributorsOther creditsMaintainersInstallationBe aware, that this module only change the UoM but not the value.It’s the same behavior as base Odoo when you change from Metric System to Imperial System.ConfigurationTo change the default UoMGo “General Settings”, then in “Products”you have to select a default unit of measure for weights and volumes.To change on a specific productGo the product form you can change the UoM directly.UsageOnce installed and the ‘Sell and purchase products in different units of measure’
option is enabled, the ‘Unit of Measure’ field will become updatable on the
‘Product’ form for users with the permission ‘Manage Multiple Units of Measure’.If the displayed value is 0.00 and a warning icon is displayed in front of the
unit of measure, it means that the value is too small to be displayed in the
current unit of measure. You should change the unit of measure to a larger one
to see the value.Bug TrackerBugs are tracked onGitHub Issues.
