I don't fully understand what you're doing. But if you have a path from your Provision object to your Item object you can write a fetchspec that acts something like

Provision.orders.items.quantity = 0

that will get all the Provisions that include unfulfilled items.

I don't think that will work against the database, only in memory. You can still use it in a qualifier to filter an NSArray in memory. Pierre Bernard has a number of qualifier extensions that provide more advanced SQL generation on his page:

I _think_ that ExistsInRelationshipQualifier is what you need.
A big THANKS! to Pierre for all these useful qualifiers. Highly recommended!

I thought if you used the FetchSpec editor in EOModeller you could create the above? I did not mean to imply that using qualifierWithFormat (or whatever it is) can do it. My bad. I never use that.

Well, I never use the EOModller thingy. In either case, the EOQualfiier generated is the same. Unless it has changed and I failed to notice it (possible), qualifiers across a to-many relationship don't generate correct SQL.
