Odoo is the world's easiest all-in-one management software.
It includes hundreds of business apps:
it seems to work only with some unit of measure
I have created a pakage that is a Bar 3 meter long
if the producto has unit of measure m I can not select it
Above all I found it quite unpractical because I have to create all the combination of pakaging required, the function Multiple quantity was more immediate
can somebody give me a workaround?
Hi,
The issue happens because in Odoo, a product’s packaging must have a unit of measure (UoM) compatible with the product’s UoM. In your example, the product is measured in meters, but the packaging likely uses a different UoM (like units or pieces), so Odoo won’t let you select it. To work around this, you can either make the packaging UoM match the product’s UoM, create a dedicated UoM for “package of 3 m” with the correct conversion, or use a custom wizard or calculation that multiplies the quantity by the package size. The last two approaches are more flexible, as they avoid having to create a separate packaging record for every possible size while still allowing correct stock and order calculations.
Hope it helps.

I really don't understand why they made these changes - I think it's made several things more complicated. I wrote about that here: https://odootricks.tips/2025/01/26/did-they-break-units-of-measure/
As far as I know, you can select any UoM / Packaging Unit that is listed under the Sales tab for the product.
Yes I can select any UoM/Packaging in the sales tab.
Unfortunately the cast I have is different:
this product will be consumed in BOM or sold according to the specific UoM, but I have to buy it in multiple of.
in my case I have a product that is an alluminium bar, it is evaluated in meters, bought in meters, and in the reordering roules I need to specify that I'm going to uy in bars 3 meters long (I have created a Pakage for it)
So you have added the 3 metre bar as a unit/packaging for this product but you can't select it in Replenishment?
I agree with you that this change in 18.1 is crazy and the old multiple quantity was easier and more flexible, but you'd have to raise that with Odoo directly.
