Re: [Tinyerp-users] Days instead of hours
Follow up... :) I have installed the last trunk version and indeed, I have seen, in the definition of the company related to an employee record that you could define the unit of measure for task. It seems to work correctly even if they are some little bug, not blocking, and that should be probably fixed in next release (I assume) when defining day as the default unit of measure for the company: - I had a pop up (could not remember when exactly but I will precise it later in this post) where the unit of measure was not correctly display (only display was wrong, control on validity of input was correct), - the default display shows a time format instead of a classical integer format, even if control input works Therefore, there is no more blocking for my part to definitely implement openERP in our company as our contract management tool. Just one issue (BIG !!!) I have seen concerning the overall way that openERP manages unit. Indeed, you can change whenever you want the unit of measure of a product, even if there are some stock for it and/or some open orders Neither warning no error message !!! I didn't have time to verifiy if, when modififying unit of measure, if there some entries in accounting in order to reflect the valuation stock difference. but I think that this option is very very dangerous for a company ! I will post that issue in a new post... thanks a lot for having resolved my first issue concerning units of measure. stef m2f -- http://www.openerp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=27912#27912 m2f ___ Tinyerp-users mailing list http://tiny.be/mailman/listinfo/tinyerp-users
Re: [Tinyerp-users] Days instead of hours
Thank you very much fabien for this confirmation and for your additional information. I will install the trunk version (I am currentling working on the RC1.1) and test it this evening. I will post the result here in order to explain to others people the exact way to implement this solution.

Re: [Tinyerp-users] Days instead of hours
Hello Raphaël, thanks for your answer. I will continue to search (and will dive into the code if needed). I will post the result of my search. If anybody has any other clues, it will be appreciate :) stef m2f -- http://www.openerp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=27835#27835 m2f ___ Tinyerp-users mailing list http://tiny.be/mailman/listinfo/tinyerp-users
Re: [Tinyerp-users] Days instead of hours
@stef one, some time ago I discussed the isse with Tiny.be guys and they said you could switch, but still is doesn't look straightforward for me (disclaimer, didn't invest too much time on that either). It was just before Fabien posted: http://fptiny.blogspot.com/2008/09/reviewed-project-management.html Also in his blog post, he clearly states: The unit of measure is now fully configurable per company so that you can work in hours/days or weeks So I guess their is native support for it. As always, looking at the code (the code is quite clean and readable unlike most others ERPs) is the best way to find out how things work. Still, generally speaking, if you don't like some unit, you could act et the presentation layer level: not rewrite all, but instead adding (by inheritance) computed fields with function + inverse function so that it will fill native fields in the right unit and present custom fields in customized units while keeping the native data model and operations on it. Hope this helps. Still, when you find out how to parameter that hour/day stuff, please explain us here in the forum to streamline the process for the next interested peoples. Oh, I forgot, I'm here speaking about the v5 (to be released very soon or available on Launchpad trunk), not the v4.2 where hours unit is hardcoded for sure indeed.

Re: [Tinyerp-users] Days instead of hours
In trunk: You can change the task's unit of measure on the company defnition. (in trunk only) For the others (timesheets, sales, ...) you can use unit of measure. Change the unit of measure of the product related to the employee. (already in employee) Open ERP is fully multiple unit of measure, so you can also mix measures: working in hours, selling in days, planning in weeks/months, ... m2f -- http://www.openerp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=27842#27842 m2f ___ Tinyerp-users mailing list http://tiny.be/mailman/listinfo/tinyerp-users
Re: [Tinyerp-users] Days instead of hours
On the trunk version, you can change this on the company definition. It changes on tasks. The others things: timesheets, sales, ... it uses the UoM defined on the related product. Hello, It seems that everything related to: - planning - attendance - project / task - timesheet - cost for analytic account based on project/task or timesheet is only based on hour. Is anybody knows if there is a way to manage it by day (1 or 0.5 day is the granularity requested). Indeed, I'm trying to implement OpenERP for my IT company, and everything is based on day in our activity. Therefore, for the moment, this point is totally blocking for me...

Re: [Tinyerp-users] Days instead of hours
Open ERP is fully multi-UoM, so that you can mix hours and days. Just say that: * Factor: 8 on hours * Factor: 1 on days The factor at 1 should be the default unit of measure.
