Duel unit of measurement for sales

 

Import the xpo file for this project into version 3- SP3 system. The labels are hard-coded.

Though this project caters to dual unit of measurement for sales, it should be very easy to convert it for dual unit of measurement for purchases.

Further, though this project is for V3Sp3, the changes are really minor in nature and hence you could use the concept for any system from Version 2.5 to Version3 SP4. The basics of inventory posting have not changed during this period.

This project also forms part of inventory movement/upgrade framework.

Functionality

Consider the following scenario: You store an item in Kg and sell it in box. The conversion ratio between bags and kg changes from order to order. Your item has 'KG' as unit of stocking and 'Box' as unit of sales.

Sales line has got an additional field where you can specify number of Kgs (i.e. the inventory unit). The value in this field is used to update the inventory. The standard unit conversion between Kg and Box is still needed though this conversion is not used.

The changes are very minor and its very easy to upgrade these changes. 

If you find any bugs and can reproduce it in the demo system, please do let me know.
