[Bug 782168] Re: [PS] Mixing Pricelists in Sale Orders may result in incorrect prices

 

(correcting importance after re-evaluation of the issue)

** Changed in: openobject-addons
   Importance: Medium => Low

** Changed in: openobject-addons
    Milestone: None => 6.1

** Description changed:

+ When writing a sale order, it is possible to use multiple pricelists, even ones with different currencies.
+ When doing the latter, the final prices are incorrect, because they were expressed in different currencies.
+ 
+ Solving this in a fool-proof manner is quite difficult.
+ 
+ However, one possible thing to improve for this use case is to modify the tooltip on the pricelist field to warn the users about this.
+ We could use something like:
+ "The selected pricelist will provide suggested prices for products, and its currency will determine the currency of the sale order.
+  If prices from multiple pricelists need to be mixed, select the appropriate pricelist before adding the corresponding products. 
+  Warning: do not mix pricelists with different currencies, as that would likely result in incorrect prices!"
+ 
+ 
+ ===== original description for reference (suggested solution invalid) ============

  having another pricelist in $ (for example)
  
  * Sales/Sales/Sales Orders, Create a sales order using the public pricelist (in €)
  * Add a sales order line, for example CPU1 (for a unit price of 75€)
  * change the pricelist on the sales order and select the pricelist in $
  * Add a sales order line, for example CPU1 (for a unit price of 75€ converted into $ = 96.26$)
  * Click on compute on the sales order line, total = 171,26
  
  Obtained result : there is no difference between product in $ and €,
  moreover the total just make the sum of the two prices !
  
  Expected result : we should see that a price is in € and the other in $
  (add a column on the sales order line) and the total must be the sum of
  all prices in € or all prices in $ not a mix of the two
