I’m running into a problem in Odoo 18 community with product packaging when creating receipts manually.

Here’s the setup:

• Product: Chocolate powder
• Base UoM: Units
• Packaging defined: Box (contains 4 Units), type Cardboard Box, active for Purchase and Sales.

What I expect:

• When I create a receipt manually and add this product or other products configured the same way, if I select Packaging = Box and set Demand = 7, I expect Odoo should automatically calculate this as 28 Units in the stock move (otherwise why let me select the packaging).

What actually happens:

• Odoo only shows 7 Units in the stock move.
• The packaging definition is there, but it seems ignored in the receipt.
• If I validate the receipt, only 7 units are received into stock, not 28.

So my question is:

Is this the intended behavior?

Does packaging only affect Purchase and Sales Orders, and not manual receipts in the Inventory app?

If so, what’s the recommended way to handle this? Should I be using Units of Measure (UoM) instead of packaging if I want the automatic conversion to happen in receipts?

I’ve double-checked my product configuration and packaging setup, but the issue persists. I’d like to confirm whether this is a limitation of Odoo or if I’m missing a step.

Thanks in advance for your help!
