Re: Packaging material as a product

Hi Dave,

thanks for the Reply.

I decided to go a slightly different approach.
I added a relation from 'product.ul' to 'product.product' to link the
abstract kind of packaging material 'product.ul' provides to a real
product.
This way I can establish a link between stock.quants and the material
really used for packaging.

I think stock_picking_package_info is not the best way to do it, because
as I understand the idea of stock_picking_package_info it is more an
abstraction of the packing pattern used than of the package material to use.

Best, Peter
