Hello everyone, I was exploring the issue OFBIZ-7128 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-7128> which is regarding the listing of the Purchase Orders generated using approved requirements.
Currently, the system doesn't keep track of POs with respect to requirements. In the case of sales orders, *OrderRequirementCommitment *records are being generated once the order status changes from *Created to Approved*. Should we create *OrderRequirementCommitment *records for Purchase orders at the time of placing the PO, so that the POs can be tracked corresponding to the particular Requirement. As of now the approved requirements are only used for initializing PO cart & then the requirement is being marked as *ordered *once the PO is created. This work flow should also be improved, as we are always free to edit the cart items & how can we mark a requirement as *ordered* if we reduced the quantity of the item corresponding to the requirement while placing the PO. In short there are two major concerns: - Need of *OrderRequirementCommitment records* for PO - Proper validation while Marking Requirements *Ordered *when placing POs using Requirements I would like to invite you all for discussing these requirements, so that we can conclude this work flow properly.
