[Bug 596862] Re: on sales flow : we cannot cancel a SO when picking is done.

 

@Joël: yes - return packing does it, but IMHO the last time the user
messed it up somehow, the corresponding invoice hasn't got the right
sign. may be they didn't choose "return invoice" but "invoice".  Have to
check to reproduce.

IMHO it would be desirable to distinguish between return shipments
(goods have been moved) and canceled shipments (goods haven't been
moved).

@Ana: do not ask why users make errors - they just do ;-) whatever is possible and not forbidden - the software has to handle it correctly.
We have troubles with internal stock locations at customers - we sometimes get "wrong" data reported manually and discover it to late (when the packing is "done").

as Jan put it - correcting it is a nightmare and does probably not
conform to accounting principles

Bug description:
Hi,


I just realized that with the new check on the last version it's just impossible to cancel a SO when his picking has already been confirmed !!!

I mean, this should not appear in a normal flow, I agree, but what to do when you're facing this !??

To reproduce :

1. Create a SO with 1 line (no matter the configuration)
2. Confirm it, go to the packing and confirmed it (force if necessary)
3. Go back to the SO, try to cancel => It says you must cancel the packing first !
=> Normal
4. Goto to the packing, you cannot cancel it, there is no button ! The workflow doesn't allow to cancel the "done" packing !
=> Can be normal...
5. Ok, so now you try to Delete this "done" packing in order to cancel your SO and it's not possible anymore !!! Says you cannot delete a done packing

So, you cannot cancel, you cannot delete the packing... But you need one of those solutions to delete your SO !!

We do need something here to be able to cancel the SO, whatever it is.

I'll suggest to enable the workflow transition from Done to Cancel state into packing. Doing this, we'll be able to ensure who's doing that through "role" security.

Thanks,


Joël
