Please everyone, adding more comments with "I agree with the others" will not help, they will just be ignored. If you want to make a difference, please show that you have looked deeply into this issue and have some real technical/business feedback to provide about this.
What we are trying to explain here, is that this bug relates to a feature that is very dangerous, and Fabien has tried to give a list of the many things that can go wrong in comment #21. Your numerous comments show that you already have different opinions about what this should do, some people are even suggesting that this should automatically update the cost_price *and* sale_price of related products?! Really, does everyone realize all the possible dangerous and hidden things that this could do to your accounting and stock valuation?? This is the reason why we think this feature should not be available by default (e.g in an extra module), and the people using it need to fully realize all the implications. If you still think this is wrong, then please explain properly what you would expect the system to do in all situations. This could be done with a real example that includes products with multiple BOMs per product and multiple levels, and taking into consideration the stock valuation in accounting: manual *and* real-time! Based on this, we could discuss "seriously" what to do, and decide if it makes sense to provide this feature in the core of OpenERP. [ On this bug or on bug 747056 ] -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of C2C OERPScenario, which is subscribed to the OpenERP Project Group. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/702288 Title: Cost price calculation limited to 2 levels in product bom Status in OpenERP Modules (addons): Invalid Bug description: A concrete example better than a long and difficult explanation :-) We have the following product A composed of the product B and product B is composed from product C. So the below BOM: A -----B -----------C If the price of B is modified, then the price of A can be also modified. But if i modify the price of C, only B is modified and not A. This is a very important blocking issue, since in most of the real prod environment, we've of course more than 2 level of boms (in some customer installation, up to 100 levels !). So any modification at the bottom should have a consequence on all the bom structure until the top, else OpenERP cannot be used for production. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~c2c-oerpscenario Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~c2c-oerpscenario More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
