Re: procurements and automatic purchase order stacking?

 

Hi Raphael,

isn't the requested functionality not already available via the action button in purchase orders?


 Merge Purchase orders Help
 <https://app.veritos.nl/view_diagram/process?res_model=purchase.order.group&res_id=False&title=Merge+Purchase+orders>


Are you sure you want to merge these orders ?
Please note that: Orders will only be merged if: * Purchase Orders are in draft * Purchase Orders belong to the same supplier * Purchase Orders are have same stock location, same pricelist Lines will only be merged if: * Order lines are exactly the same except for the product,quantity and unit

Ok, it isn't called automatically, but if you want to merge automatically perhaps this function could be called after MRP run instead of building a new one.

Hello production experts,

with the current OpenERP procurement system: different sale order lines will have have their own move and their own procurement. It means that if you have 0 stock and you by 2 PC1 in one order and then 3 PC1 in an other order during the same day, you may have two draft purchase orders, even if the supplier is the same, generating manual merging work for the purchase manager.
For our large ecommerce customers this is not usable.
So we we made (Sebastien Beau) the "procurement_purchase_update" module https://code.launchpad.net/~akretion-team/+junk/procurement_purchase_update <https://code.launchpad.net/%7Eakretion-team/+junk/procurement_purchase_update> It at least, when it's the same product, it now adds up to the the same purchase order line when the purchase order is still in draft and if the MRP scheduler triggers new procurements.

Now, when the product is different, the procurement for the purchase moves need to be different. So currently it still generate different purchase orders even if the supplier is the same. I'm about to extend this module to offer an option to add to the same purchase order, even if purchase procurements are different.

So the question is:
did somebody do something similar already? Where?
Do you see any problem with this reasoning? Are you interested in that?


Thank you very much.
