@legalsylvain Regarding the use case, it's an old module do I don't know the original intention. From what supermarkets told me, they use it on weighted products by setting a very high default minimal amount.
This prevents the cashier from forgetting to put a weight on the product (because the total of the order is then very high if the weight is not manually set).

I don't know if it's the original intent of the module but some supermarkets are attached to it. I am sure there are better way to prevent forgetting to put the weight though.

@carmenbianca does the module works on your side ? I tested it on products with a "kg" and a "g" uom but the default quantity is not set on the POS.

@victor-champonnois yes the module works for me. see https://github.com/OCA/pos/blob/f9c012809be12e1948c060a89e0bf92fdb0b648c/pos_default_quantity/readme/CONFIGURE.rst for the steps needed to make it work.

@legalsylvain

• could you provide a use case, when this module is interesting for end user. I'm not sure to understand.

the use-case is a little beyond me. doing this by UoM category instead of, say, product category is a strange choice, but I just ported it as-is. I could 100% understand keeping this as an internal module. I'm just trying to lower the amount of internal modules where I can to be nicer members of the community.

• naive question : when you port a module from 12 to 16, why do you make migration to 13 / 14 /15 and not directly to 16 ?

Those are the OCA contribution guidelines. Now technically I didn't do a good job of this, and this wasn't an OCA module to begin with, so that history wasn't super important.

@carmenbianca I test on the runboat, following the steps in the documented configuration, but I don't see it working in the POS. Could you have a look at the runboat ? (I test with the product called "kg product", with the "weight" uom category).

@victor-champonnois you're right, it doesn't work (any longer?). i was also able to reproduce the dysfunction locally.

also, apparently the 'technical' section is hidden unless you use debugging mode. that isn't great; to fix.

@victor-champonnois fixed. there was a typo in the javascript that mustn't have been there before.

i also moved the setting to the 'inventory' section. not a perfect match, but it's the best match without creating a new section.

@carmenbianca I am not sure it's a good OCA fit though, since the known use case is as bit of a hack.

@victor-champonnois agreed, closing in favour of coopiteasy/cie-pos#27
