Hi Quentin, Raphaël,

i've read through the discussion and indeed i have to confirm that the
module purchase_double_validation is working exaclty as Quentin is
explaining, except that the approbation state is not only dedicated for
the manager but could also be usefull if you want an approval from your
supplier (that's the reason the state is named "Approved" and not
"Approved by Manager", or neither "Approved by Supplier").

So, Raphaël, in order to have the purchase_requisition module working
eaxctly as you're expecting, you should install the
purchase_double_validation module and set (with the configuration
wizard) a limit amount = 0. It will add an validation step for each and
every time.

The only remaining question is: should we set a dependancy between those
2 modules (in order to have purchase_double_validation automatically
installed when installing purchase_requisition) ? i'm not sure...
actually we though it was already usefull without as we could say that
we encode the PO of the potential suppliers whennever we receive them,
but we'll confirm only the one we choose for our purchase tender.


Thank you both for your contribution,
Quentin

Title:
  [6 stable][purchase_requisition] requisition workflow missing supplier
  feedback

Status in OpenERP Modules (addons):
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hello,

  using stable 6:
  I don't see how one can use the purchase requisition module:

  create a new purchase requisition with some product, then create new
  quotations for it.

  I supposed that at this step we send the request for quotation to each
  supplier, by mail or they even access it using our OpenERP.

  In any case how am I supposed to keep track which are the quotations where we already got the price from the supplier and the others for which we don't have it yet?
  Currently, there is only the "convert to purchase order" button available to change the status of a quotation. But that would validate the purchase order and even create an incoming shipment. This is really not what you want at this stage as you didn't even choose yet the supplier or which order lines go to which supplier.

  Seems unusable as it is. Do I miss something? I remember that a few
  days/weeks ago, purchase orders had a 'confirmed by supplier'
  button/state that would have made the workflow much more appropriate
  here. Is that some kind of surprise regression? Is that some poison
  change introduced when creating the 'purchase_double_validation'
  module?

  I'm about to make this module better, but at least it should be usable first.
  Thanks
