Length, width, height - and the volume that follows from them
Real dimensions on the product, with volume and a stowage factor computed - the numbers a warehouse, a carrier and a shipping quote all ask for.
Product Dimensions (technical name to_product_dimensions) is an Odoo 17.0 app for Odoo Community and Odoo Enterprise and Viindoo Cloud, built for warehouse, freight and logistics, sales.
At a Glance
The facts of Product Dimensions, version 1.0.0, in one place. Published by Viindoo.
How It Works
Two screens - the product, and the catalogue.
Measure once, on the product
Enter the three dimensions and the volume follows. Change one and the volume changes with it, which is the part a hand-typed figure never does.
Read the catalogue by size
The fields are ordinary product fields: list them, filter on them, export them to a carrier's rate sheet.
What You Get
Length, width and height on the product, in the unit your database uses
Volume computed from the three, not typed separately
Stowage factor and stowage volume for freight that is priced by space
On the product template, so every variant and every document that reads a product has them

What This App Does Not Do
Read this before you buy. Everything below is something the app deliberately leaves to another app or to you.
No cartonisation, no pallet building - the dimensions are the input those tools would need.
Packaging-level dimensions are a different model; this measures the product itself.
The stowage factor is computed; what a carrier charges for it is between you and the carrier.

Apps from the same stack, built to fit this one:
Who Should Use Product Dimensions?
Warehouse
Knows whether it fits before the pallet is built.
Freight and logistics
Has the stowage factor a sea quote is priced on.
Sales
Quotes a carrier without asking the warehouse to measure again.

Instruction
Instruction video: Product Dimensions
1. Configure product dimensions (Width, Length, Height) and Stowage Factor (SF)
For Consumable or Storable products, some new fields to define product dimensions will be displayed on the Inventory tab. Based on that, the product Volume and Stowage Volume will be automatically computed accordingly.
In which: Stowage Volume = Volume x Stowage Volume
Besides, this module also combines these dimensions with the product's name, making it easy to distinguish and quickly select the right product during the purchase, sales, warehouse management, etc.
Note: This feature is also applied to product variants.
2. Integrate with the viin_fleet_stock module in product loading for transportation.
When loading products into a vehicle, a warning will pop up if the total product weight exceeds the volume/capacity of the vehicle used for transportation.
