So a product with a UoM of Kg will have a weight of 1.0 Kg. and a product with a UoM of grams will have a weight of 0.001 Kg.</p> <p>It still allows to adjust the total weight manually with an extra field.</p> <p><strong>Table of contents</strong></p> <div class="contents local topic" id="contents"> <ul class="simple"> <li><a class="reference internal" href="#installation" id="id1">Installation</a></li> <li><a class="reference internal" href="#configuration" id="id2">Configuration</a></li> <li><a class="reference internal" href="#usage" id="id3">Usage</a></li> <li><a class="reference internal" href="#known-issues-roadmap" id="id4">Known issues / Roadmap</a></li> <li><a class="reference internal" href="#bug-tracker" id="id5">Bug Tracker</a></li> <li><a class="reference internal" href="#credits" id="id6">Credits</a><ul> <li><a class="reference internal" href="#authors" id="id7">Authors</a></li> <li><a class="reference internal" href="#contributors" id="id8">Contributors</a></li> <li><a class="reference internal" href="#maintainers" id="id9">Maintainers</a></li> </ul> </li> </ul> </div> <a name="installation"></a> <h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id1">Installation</a></h2> <p>Although it's not a direct dependency of this module you will need to have <em>Sale Management</em> or <em>Inventory</em> installed in order to use Units of Measure.</p> <a name="configuration"></a> <h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id2">Configuration</a></h2> <p>To configure this module, you need to:</p> <ol class="arabic simple"> <li>Go to <em>Inventory &gt; Configuration &gt; Settings</em>.</li> <li>In the <em>Product</em> section set <em>Units of Measure</em> on.</li> </ol> <p>The decimal precission of the weight field is set to 2 digits by default so if you need more decimals (i.e.: grams are 0,001 Kg and would be rounded to 0.00!) you need to:</p> <ol class="arabic simple"> <li>Go to <em>Settings &gt; Technical &gt; Database Structure &gt; Decimal Accuracy</em></li> <li>Edit <em>Stock Weight</em> and set <em>Digits</em> to your needs.</li> </ol> <a name="usage"></a> <h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id3">Usage</a></h2> <ol class="arabic simple"> <li>Go to a product and change its UoM to any in the Weight category.</li> <li>Go to the <em>Inventory</em> tab and you'll see the weight has changed to the proper conversion.</li> <li>Additionaly you can set an additional weight that will sum to the calculated one.</li> </ol> <a name="known-issues-roadmap"></a> <h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id4">Known issues / Roadmap</a></h2> <ul> <li><p class="first">There's an incompatibility with the module <cite>delivery</cite> because of the way this one computes the <cite>stock.quant.package</cite> and <cite>stock.picking</cite> weight based on unit conversion multiplied by product weight.</p> <p>E. g.: A product with a UoM of Tons will have a weight of 1000 Kg. <cite>delivery</cite> computes it this way for every quant package or picking line:</p> <ul class="simple"> <li>Converts the product Uom (Tons) to the line Uom (e.g.: Kg.) = 1000</li> <li>Multiplies it by the line quantity (e.g.: 5) = 5000</li> <li>Then multiplies it by the product weight = 50000</li> </ul> <p>This would be a correct compute if the UoM wouldn't be a weight measure itself.</p> </li> </ul> <a name="bug-tracker"></a> <h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id5">Bug Tracker</a></h2> <p>Bugs are tracked on <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/OCA/product-attribute/issues">GitHub Issues</a>.
