My client is buying a product in pieces of iron (plate pieces) with specific area (length * width) and thickness from the suppliers and use these pieces in his manufacturing and inventory processes by pieces in units.
The problem is that he is buying this product by weight (in tons,) and the supplier produces invoices to the total weight for the purchased pieces in tons not in units.
Moreover, when he moves this product from/to his warehouses, he deals with piece (or unit) with specific dimensions (length * width * thickness).
For example;
Purchase uom: Ton
Warehouse uom: Unit (with dimensions: length * width * thickness)
Therefore, each piece of this product should be in unit, and in the same time has three dimensions (length * width * thickness), and should also refer to the purchase unit of measure (ton).
So, how Odoo’s can overcome this problem?
