[Bug 553112] Re: Partial packing wizard seems to change the id of existing pickings

 

I think, this improvement is needed but better to keep it for trunk.
If Back Order  ref. is changed in stable, it may break consistency for stable users.
Thanks.

Status in OpenObject Addons Modules: Confirmed

Bug description:
In v5.0, when you make a partial packing the wizard will create a copy of the packing and stock moves.
That's fine but then it does something I find rather weird:
- it lets the original stock picking and stock move "confirmed" and sets the quantities to the quantities remaining to be sent
- it sets the quantities actually sent to the stock new moves
- and it marks the old picking a backorder of the new one

As a result, the old picking seems to have "changed identity": new id, new reference. Anything you've printed, sent announced to your customer or your carrier is obsolete.
If you happen to have a little complex situation (like several partial pickings in a row), it's incredibly difficult for the user to understand what happened.

The wizard should:
- copy the picking
- use the original picking as the one actually sent
- use the copy as the one remaining to be sent
- mark the copy a backorder of the original.
