This module was written to use unit of measure instead of quantity by package in the definition of packaging. The goal is to ease the use of packaging in sale and purchase.
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 14.0Define product packagings using a unit of measure instead of a plain quantity, so packaging sizes stay consistent with the product's unit of measure in sales and purchases.
This module changes how packagings are defined on products. Instead of only entering a number of units per package, you can now pick a packaging unit of measure, and Odoo automatically calculates the equivalent quantity in the product's own unit of measure.
Where it appears: - On the product form, the packaging list now carries the product's unit of measure category, so only compatible units are offered. - On the packaging form, a new field lets you choose the packaging unit of measure, filtered to the same category as the product's unit of measure.
Business rules and automatic behaviour: - The quantity per package is computed from the chosen packaging unit of measure and the product's unit of measure; if no unit is set, it defaults to 1. - Changing the product on a packaging updates the allowed unit of measure category. - If you type a quantity instead, Odoo finds or creates a matching unit of measure in the product's category, so existing workflows keep working. - A packaging must always have a unit of measure; otherwise Odoo blocks saving with a validation message.
It touches the product.packaging model and the product and packaging forms, and relies on the standard units of measure and product modules.
