I’m new to Dolibarr and testing it. I’m having difficulty finding where the setting is for the Calculated weight on the sales order and shipments tab. It’s showing in grams but I need it to show in imperial measurements ounces or pounds. I’ve turned off all metric measurements in Dictionaries > Measuring Units but it still shows the weight in grams.
On each individual product, have you defined its weight in in “x” number of ounces/pounds?
I’m not sure if that is your problem but could be a contributor.
Hope that helps.

Thank you for the suggestion. Checked and the product weight is in ounces.
which dolibarr version @cindy ?
Version 21.0.2
Hello ![]()
can you try to set “MAIN_WEIGHT_DEFAULT_UNIT” to 98 for ounces or to 99 for pounds
in “Setup” - “Other setup” function
Good continuation
Thank you for your suggestion. I tried it and it changes the weight to KG. I did an internet search with the new information and it looks like this has been a problem for a while. I found this fix but trying it just crashes the program - [BUG] MAIN_WEIGHT_DEFAULT_UNIT doesn't work for Ounce & Pound · Issue #10299 · Dolibarr/dolibarr · GitHub
Here are the code changes back then - they might have changed since
I just tried to get the value of MAIN_WEIGHT_DEFAULT_UNIT in my Dolibarr 21.0.1 and the answer is:
{
"error": {
"code": 400,
"message": "Bad Request: Error Bad or unknown value for constantname"
}
}
@pcbleu how do we know what value corresponds to which unit?
@cindy which of your units are enabled?
