Purchase Order Secondary Unit

This module lets you purchase products in a second unit of measure that is different from the main stock unit. On a purchase order line you can enter the quantity in the secondary unit and the price for that secondary unit; Odoo converts them automatically into the standard quantity and unit price used by the order.

• On the product form (Purchase tab) you can set a "Default secondary unit for purchases", so new purchase order lines for that product start with that unit and a quantity of 1.
• On vendor pricelists (product.supplierinfo) you can store a "Secondary Unit" and a "Secondary Price". The secondary price is calculated from the normal vendor price and the unit's conversion factor, and if you type a secondary price Odoo recalculates the normal price.
• On purchase order lines, the secondary quantity, secondary unit and secondary price appear next to the standard quantity, both in the form and in the list. The unit and quantity fields become read-only once the order is confirmed, done or cancelled.
• The secondary unit is required as soon as a secondary quantity is entered.
• The secondary quantity and unit are printed on the Purchase Order and Request for Quotation PDF reports in a "Second Qty" column.
• When a purchase order is confirmed, the secondary unit is carried over to the vendor information and, if the accounting line supports it, to the journal entry line.

It touches products, vendor pricelists, purchase orders and their lines, and the purchase order and quotation reports.
