This module allows odoo users to declare packaging types
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 15.0Lets you define reusable packaging types (with a code, sequence and GTIN flag) and assign one to each product packaging, so packagings are named and ordered by type instead of by free text.
This module adds a new configuration screen for packaging types and links it to the packagings you already set on products.
Where it appears: - A new menu "Product Packaging Type" under Inventory/Configuration (visible to users with the packaging group). - On the product packaging form and list, a new Packaging Type field replaces the free-text packaging name, plus a computed "Qty per package type" column.
What users can do: - Create packaging types with a name, a code, a sequence, an active flag and a "has GTIN" flag. - Mark exactly one type as the default; the system refuses to save if there is none or more than one. - Assign a type to each packaging; the packaging name is then taken from the type automatically.
Automatic rules and behaviours: - A default type ("Default Type", code DEFAULT) is pre-loaded. - For a given product, you cannot have two non-default packagings of the same type. - If the chosen type requires a GTIN, the barcode field on the packaging becomes mandatory (when a quantity is set). - The "Qty per package type" field shows how many of the smaller packagings of other types fit in the current one, e.g. "12 BOX; 144 PAL". - Packagings are sorted by the type sequence.
It touches product.packaging and the new product.packaging.type model.
