Re: define weight for product template

Hello Jan,
I have the same need in Odoo 14.  We have also added a "FedEx Shipping Module" from Vraja and it is very complicated to get anything like a proper weight for shipping, and moreover,  as you note,  the effort of applying Product weights and dimensions per variant takes considerable upkeep.

My "sense" is that if weight and dimensions would have been applied BEFORE variants were created then it might work.
It is on my "to do list" to see if I can set the data for such directly to the Database.  
More optimisically, there might be an OCA module to help with these subjects.

Thanks for noting,

Subject: define weight for product template

Hi!
Using Odoo 15.0, I can define weight within each product variant but not 
within a product template. I use the variant creation method 
"dynamically" and want to define the weight once in the product template 
which should be applies to all future product variants. Is this possible 
with existing modules or does it require custom code?

Best regards
Jan
