Re: Weighing scales

My latest information (more a guess/feeling) from Odoo customer service (and some online research) on this was that if the POS is certified (like e.g. Odoo POS via fiscaly is in Germany), then the scale itself does not need to have an additional certification, and that this may explain why Odoo removed the below  notice from its later documentation from v18 on
"Odoo is not certified in several countries, including France, Germany, and Switzerland. If you reside in one of these countries, you can still use a scale but without integration into your Odoo database. Alternatively, you can acquire a non-integrated certified scale that prints certified labels, which can then be scanned into your Odoo database."

Anyone has more clarity on this scale certification part in Germany or other EU countries?

  • Weighing scales
    Hey Everyone,

    I'm a fairly new member to the OCA (joined half 2025) and I didn't had much time to catch up.

    I've been in the mailing and I see sometimes questions popping up & people helping eachother, which is great ! 

    At the moment when you want a weighscale for the POS system for odoo EE  a IOT is recommended and a ariva-S model.

    These scales are sometimes too expensive for customers , did anyone else had success with other scales which also work with an IOT box or any other connection.
    Mind you i'm looking for SaaS solutions also, so while i'm open to costume modules for other scales.
    I'm also looking for scales that would work with SaaS enterprise solution.

    Thank you all , and keep up the good work !

    Sincerely
    Kristof
