How to use different units of measure?
|
||||||
|
======================================
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Overview
|
||||||
|
========
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In some cases, handling products in different unit of measures is
|
||||||
|
necessary. For example, if you buy products in a country where the
|
||||||
|
metric system is of application and sell the in a country where the
|
||||||
|
imperial system is used, you will need to convert the units.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You can set up Odoo to work with different units of measure for one
|
||||||
|
product.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Configuration
|
||||||
|
=============
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In the **Inventory** application, go to :menuselection:`Configuration --> Settings`.
|
||||||
|
In the **Products** section, select **Some products may be sold/purchased in
|
||||||
|
different units of measure (advanced)**, then click on **Apply**.
|
||||||
|

Setting up units on your products
|
||||||
|
=================================
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In :menuselection:`Inventory Control --> Products`, open the product which you would like to
|
||||||
|
change the purchase/sale unit of measure, and click on **Edit**.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In the **Unit of Measure** section, select the unit in which the product
|
||||||
|
will be sold and in which internal transfers will be done.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In the **Purchase Unit of Measure** section, select the unit in which
|
||||||
|
you purchase the product. When you’re done, click on **Save**.
|
||||||

|
.. tip::
|
||||||
|
Click on the edit button |edit| to create new unit of measures.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Transfer from one unit to another
|
||||||
|
=================================
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
When doing inter-unit transfers, the rounding is automatically done by
|
||||||
|
Odoo.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The unit of measure can be changed throughout the whole process. The
|
||||||
|
only condition is that the unit of measure is part of the same category.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In this example, we are in the egg business :
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- We buy eggs by trays (30 eggs)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- We check all eggs individually when receiving it (quality control)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- We sell eggs by the dozen to the customers
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

|
.. note::
|
||||||
|
The **Sale price** is expressed in the **Product unit of measure**. The
|
||||||
|
**Cost price** is expressed in the **Purchase Unit of Measure**.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. note::
|
||||||
|
All internal transfers are expressed in the **Product Unit of
|
||||||
|
Measure**.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Procurement
|
||||||
|
-----------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
When doing your procurement request, you can still change the unit of
|
||||||
|
measure.
|
||||||

|
||||||

||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The unit of measure can also be changed in the purchase order :
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Quality Control
|
||||||
|
---------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The quality control is done by unit.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The basic unit of measure of our product is **Unit**. Therefore the
|
||||||
|
quality check is done by unit.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. note::
|
||||||
|
The unit of measure can only be changed when the transfer status
|
||||||
|
is **Draft**.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Delivery process
|
||||||
|
----------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The eggs are sold by the dozen. You can choose the unit of measure on
|
||||||
|
the sale order document. When doing it, the price is automatically
|
||||||
|
computed from the unit to the dozen.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In the delivery order, the initial demand is done in the sales order unit
|
||||||
|
of measure :

||||||

|
||||||

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
But the transfer is done in the product unit of measure. Everything is
|
||||||
|
converted automatically :
