Description¶

OpenERP is already supporting a product variants at the core level. But
without this module, variants are only mono-axial. OpenERP indeed uses the product.template
as the model object and the product.variant as the instance variant.
Using this module, you can now easily deal with multi-axial variants.
A product.template, now has a set of dimensions (like Color, Size, anything you want).
For each dimension, a product.template has a set of dimension values (like Red, Green
for the Color dimension). For each dimension, you can accept or not custom dimension
values. The sale interface product configurator will take it into account.
Once the product.template is set up, you can use a 'generator' button that will populate
the space of the variants. You could also choose to populate only some combinations
by hand instead.
Each variant can have an extra price that will be taken into account when computing
the base listed price. Yet to be implemented: a price extra per variant dimension value.
Finally, this module is better used along with the product_variant_configurator which
will help the salesman selecting the appropriate variant in the sale order line
using dimension criteria instead of having to crawl the full space of variants.

Objects¶

Object: Dimension Type (product.variant.dimension.type)¶

product_tmpl_id:
	Product Template, many2one, required

allow_custom_value:
	Allow Custom Value, boolean

If true, custom values can be entered in the product configurator

name:	Dimension, char

value_ids:	Dimension Values, one2many

The product ‘variants’ code will use this to order the dimension values

sequence:	Sequence, integer

dimension_id:	Dimension Type, many2one, required

dimension_sequence:
	Related Dimension Sequence, float
