Product Profile

• Create your own profile here: Sales \> Configuration \> Product \> Product Profiles
• Extend "product.profile" model to add fields from product.template, either in normal mode or default mode (see note section below). These fields should be identical to their original fields (especially "required" field attribute).

class ProductProfile(models.Model):
  """ Require dependency on sale, purchase and point_of_sale modules
  """

  _inherit = "product.profile"

  def _get_types(self):
      return [("product", "Stockable Product"),
              ("consu", 'Consumable'),
              ("service", "Service")]

  sale_ok = fields.Boolean(
      string="Can be Sold",
      help="Specify if the product can be selected in a sales order line.")
  purchase_ok = fields.Boolean(
      string="Can be Purchased")
  available_in_pos = fields.Boolean()

• Insert data (xml or csv) and define values for each field defined above for each configuration scenario

Note : You might want to declare profile fields as defaults. To do this, just prefix the field with "profile_default".

> ``python > class ProductProfile(models.Model): > profile_default_categ_id = fields.Many2one( > "product.category", > string="Default category", > ) > profile_default_tag_ids = fields.Many2many( > comodel_name="product.template.tag", > string="Tags", > ) >``

Default fields only influence the records the first time they are set. - if the profile is modified, changes are not propagated to all the records that have this profile - if the record previously had another profile, changing profile will not influence default values

Assign a value to the profile field in the product template form. Then, all fields which depend on this profile will be set to the right value at once.

If you deselect the profile value, all these fields keep the same value and you can change them manually (back to standard behavior).

Profiles are also defined as search filter and group.
