Hi everybody,

Currently transitioning towards Odoo 16 and I bumped into a problem which I have not been able to resolve. I probably just overlook something what is straight forward. If somebody could push me in the right direction.

I wish to change the default UOM for weight and volume in the Inventory tab (Inventory>Products>Inventory). By default this is kg for weight and m3 for volume. This is not practical for my business, I wish all products to have these values in grams and cm3.

I first thought to simple change the reference values for weight and volume under each category to grams and cm3 (Inventory>Settings>UoM categories). This all went fine, configuration wise, but it did not change the default measurement on the inventory tab of the product.

To give an example, I would like 0.171kg to enter as 171g, and 0.004566m3 as 4566cm3.

Note that none of my products I have entered has currently weight and volume values. So any changes would not yet effect Odoo in my view. Neither do I want to change the Unit of Measurements on the general information tab of products.

I tried to change the decimals to higher than 2 on kg and m3 but Odoo does not like this and gives the following error:

This rounding precision is higher than the Decimal Accuracy (2 digits). This may cause inconsistencies in computations. Please set a precision between 0.01 and 1. 

I would appreciate to know it if anybody had the same issues and how you resolved it.

Thanks for the help and assistance.
