For some processes, you need to know the volume of your stock picking. This could be useful for example to know the device to use to process it. An other use case could be to know how many trucks you need to deliver your products.
By default, the delivery module from Odoo will compute the picking weight. Unfortunately, it will not compute the volume. This module will add the volume computation to the picking and to the stock move. This information will be stored in the database and will be available on the picking form view and on the stock move form view.
Table of contents
In order to have a pertinent value for the computed volume, the dimension fields must be set on all the products.
The computed volume depends on the move state.
- If the move is done, the volume is the volume for the qty done.
- If the move is cancelled or draft waiting, the volume is the volume for the qty to do.
- if the move is available or partially available, the volume is the volume for the reserved quantity.
When the module is installed on an existing database, the volume field is only computed for the stock moves of pickings not yet processed. The moves in a cancelled or done picking are not updated to avoid to freeze the database for a long time during the upgrade process if it contains a lot of stock moves and pickings.
