Hy everyone.

I am trying to switch all the software of the small company in which I am working in, to opensource software. I am currently in my last (but biggest step) which is erp solution.

Currently we are working with a sh*t of ERP programs (spanish user's will know them, Contaplus and Facturaplus),

The thing is that the products we manufacture need to be identified with the following fields:

- Reference (Code OpenERP) -> OK

- Quality (free text property, could be a "table like property")
- Color (could be a free text, but it's preferable to be a property with values stored in a "table", similar to what product_variant_multi product gives)
- Entry ID (free text. It would in fact be the purchase order) .

In other products would be fine to have sizes, but that is not a requirement right now.

There are a lot of different products (different references or codes) , so being able to create new products from within the purchase orders is a must.

I have tried to use (as suggested in several posts):

- product_variant_multi:: I am not sure if I am using correctly, but as all the products should be exactly the same, I would like to use the same template for all the products (let's say a "General Product" template). I know that one answer would be to actually duplicate the template, but I think it can not be done in the purchase order (and it is not very intuitive frankly).

- New fields in product table (x_color,x_quality,x_entryid): I think that this should be the right solution. I have managed to show these properties in the products tabs (by modifying view layout), but how can be create new products from purchase orders with these properties?

Hope that someone could give me some light , because I am really pushing hard to free my company software!

Thanks in advance
