you have how the client terminology and how ofbiz accomplishes the
functions.
what you want to accomplish requires customization, so you can not
achieve it OOTB.
Assuming that the stores are part of the main companies then there would
not be two "Sales".
to discuss how to modify ofbiz to accomplish this is beyond the time I
have to commit to the mailing list.
#1 the normal business flow is a PO from a company creates a Sales order
at the company receiving it. However if you look at a PO as Inventory
Transfer then you doing what you want. This is a customization.
#2the way you client has it should be right. this is Solved by How you
do #1

Hello BJ,
Do you mean there is no need for a new Type of order (Transfer Order) ?
I readed the Datamodel book and I can't figure out how to use sales and
purchase for such on order..
So I have two questions:
1- If a store create a purchase order to the hub.. will the hub will see it
as a sales order? I tryed with ofbiz but I can never get this "sale to
purchase binding"...Do you mean that if I put the correct roles on my
parties (hub and stores) ofbiz will map purchases to sales ?
2- If a good is orderded first from the hub to the store then to the store
to the final customer then each good will be sold twice and that might
complexifie the statistic reports.. (in my customer case the Hub to store
movement is not a sale and has to be ignored for sales reports)..
THX for you answer!
