Re: [Bug 705218] Re: [6 stable][purchase_requisition] requisition workflow missing supplier feedback

 

Quentin,

thank you very much for those explanations.
1) I think that the dependency is required indeed, else I don't see anyway
to use the module
2) This might not be the general solution, but I can tell you that here in
the Sao Paulo 100 employees I just started implementing OpenERP 6 (don't
worry, we will have you yet an other maintenance contract), we need both a
validation step for purchase orders and also the purchase_requisition
module. So in that case, setting 0 as the validation amount would suck. I
guess we could of course program some extension, but ideally you could use
both the the validation feature and the supplier approval state required for
purchase requisitions.
Any patch that would make both usages compatible?

Thanks

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
