Purchase Order Secondary Unit

This module extends the functionality of purchase orders to allow buy products in secondary unit of distinct category.

Users can enter quantities and prices in secondary units on purchase order lines. Vendor pricelist records are also extended to support secondary unit pricing.

Purchase reports and the Purchase Order portal are adjusted to display quantities and prices in secondary units based on company configuration.

Configuration

For configuration of displaying secondary unit information in purchase reports and the Purchase Order portal, see the guidelines provided in product_secondary_unit.

Usage

To use this module you need to:

1. Go to a Product > General Information tab.
2. Create any record in "Secondary unit of measure".
3. Set the conversion factor.
4. Go to Purchase > Quotation > Create.
5. Change secondary qty and secondary uom in line, and quantity (product_qty) will be changed (according to the conversion factor).

Vendor Pricelist Integration

• When adding a vendor to a product's pricelist (via Purchase tab > Vendors), the secondary unit of measure is automatically defaulted from the product variant's purchase secondary UOM, or from the product template if not set on the variant.
• When a new vendor pricelist record is created from purchase order confirmation, the secondary UOM from the purchase order line is automatically stored in the vendor pricelist entry.

Known issues / Roadmap

Updating existing vendor pricelist records from purchase order confirmation does not currently support secondary UOM or secondary UOM pricing. This is not included in the current scope and may be considered in future improvements.
