AI-generated from the code · Odoo 18.0

Lets you flag a package type so its own weight is used as the total shipping weight, instead of adding the weight of the products inside.

This module adds a new option on package types in Inventory. On the package type form and list you get a checkbox called "Is shipping weight". When you tick it, the weight defined on that package type becomes the total shipping weight of any package using it, and the weight of the products inside is no longer added.

  • When you select such a package type on a package, the shipping weight is automatically filled with the package type weight.
  • The same happens in the delivery package wizard used when putting products in a package.
  • The computed weight of the package is also set to the package type weight.
  • When a delivery carrier builds the list of packages for a sales order or a transfer, product weight is ignored for these package types, so the carrier gets the package type weight as the shipping weight.
  • A check prevents saving a package type with this option enabled and a negative weight.

It touches package types, packages, delivery carriers, sales orders and transfers, and adds the checkbox to the package type screens.
