-----------------------------------------
Thank you [~jacopoc]. I retested with the missing step included, and it's
working fine now, so I am closing this ticket.
> Update status of Requirement from “Approved” to "Ordered" when Purchase Order
> (PO) is created for that.

> Key: OFBIZ-13247
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-13247
> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: manufacturing, order
> Affects Versions: Upcoming Branch
> Reporter: Yashwant Dhakad
> Priority: Minor
>
> In the Requirements tab, in the Order module when a purchase order is created
> from an approved *product* requirement, it does not update the requirement’s
> status from “Approved” to “Ordered,” even though the corresponding
> requirement is linked to the purchase order. This bug creates confusion for
> procurement teams who rely on the status to track order progress, forcing
> them to manually verify PO creation. More critically, it disrupts the
> Material Requirements Planning (MRP) engine as the system deflates the
> incoming quantity of the product to be ordered.
> For example, if the system has both: an approved requirement and a PO for an
> item, and then a new sales order (SO) arrives. The MRP engine will assume
> that the previous ‘approved requirement’ is supposed to fulfill the newly
> arrived SO, thus failing to generate a respective new requirement for the SO.
> This leads to incorrect inventory planning, as the system does not account
> for the new item to be ordered via PO. Such conflicts cause inefficiencies,
> risks of duplicate orders, stock shortages, and delayed workflows, especially
> in high-volume manufacturing.
> To fix this, the system should:
> * Update the requirement status to “Ordered” the moment the purchase order
> creation service runs.
> * Preserve the existing commitment link between the requirement and the
> purchase order.
> * Reflect the status change accurately in the UI and database for reliable
> tracking.
> These changes will enhance visibility for procurement teams, reduce errors,
> and streamline workflows.
