Product logistics UoM

Beta License: AGPL-3 OCA/product-attribute Translate me on Weblate Try me on Runboat

This module allows to choose an Unit Of Measure (UoM) for products weight and volume. It can be set product per product for users in group_uom.

Without this module, you only have the choice between Kg or Lb(s) and m³ for all the products.

For some business cases, you need to express in more precise UoM than default ones like Liters instead of M³.

Even if you choose another UoM for the weight or volume, the system will still store the value for these fields in the Odoo default UoM (Kg or Lb(s) and m³). This ensures that the arithmetic operations on these fields are correct and consistent with the rest of the addons.

Once this addon is installed values stored into the initial Volume and Weight fields on the product and product template models are no more rounded to the decimal precision defined for these fields. This could lead to some side effects into reportss where these fields are used. You can replace the fields by the new ones provided by this addon to avoid this problem (product_volume and product_weight). In any cases, since you use different UoM by product, you should most probably modify your reportss to display the right UoM.

Installation

Be aware, that this module only change the UoM but not the value.

It’s the same behavior as base Odoo when you change from Metric System to Imperial System.

Configuration

To change the default UoM

  1. Go “General Settings”, then in “Products”

  2. you have to select a default unit of measure for weights and volumes.

To change on a specific product

  1. Go the product form you can change the UoM directly.

Usage

Once installed and the ‘Sell and purchase products in different units of measure’ option is enabled, the ‘Unit of Measure’ field will become updatable on the ‘Product’ form for users with the permission ‘Manage Multiple Units of Measure’.

If the displayed value is 0.00 and a warning icon is displayed in front of the unit of measure, it means that the value is too small to be displayed in the current unit of measure. You should change the unit of measure to a larger one to see the value.
