[Bug 731035] Re: Reference UoM for category should be checked for uniqueness

 

Indeed, the crash of reports due to multiple reference UoM for a
category needs to be prevented or fixed.

I guess it is never really necessary to have multiple units in the same
UoM category that have the same conversion rate, as that makes them
equal to each other. We could add a unique constraint on (category_id,
factor) so that only one UoM in each category is allowed to have the
same conversion rate. This will also prevent having 2 reference UoMs
with factor = 1.0.

I don't agree about the second part where you say that it should be forbidden to delete a reference UoM if there are other UoM. The reference UoM does not need to be explicitly defined, as per definition its factor is 1.0. If you have 2 UoM in the same category, let's say A (factor=0.5) and B (factor=0.1) you can easily convert from one to the other because you know their factor (against the implicit reference 1.0), without needing an explicit reference UoM. For example:  5.0 A = ((5.0/0.5)*0.1) B = 1.0 B
This is more convenient if the reference UoM should never be used directly.

Title:
  Reference UoM for category should be checked for uniqueness

Status in OpenERP Modules (addons):
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Currently any UoM can be set as a reference for a given category which
  seems to be wrong (meaning one category can have several UoM
  references). By conception it is dubious and actually it makes some
  reports crashes like account_invoice_report with the following error
  message:

  Uniqueness should be checked when the UoM is created/modified. Even more, you should not be able to delete the reference of a category if other UoM depend on it.
