Comment 10 for bug 1015717

Thanks for the feedback, guys. My comments:

@Nhomar

"1.- Split is one option, when the Virtual Stock "Can be" sent splited (it means you say this explicitly on SO)
2.- Split is NOT an option, If you send always by internal policies "All or Nothing" (again you say this in SO)"

You're right... or not. Actually we always split, but we respect the workflow and we can only process when all the quantities are available.

I agree with not splitting when SO is defined to be processed when all the products and quantities are available, although in some cases it could be useful to know the amount left en each line to proccess the shipping order.

We're going to change this.

"3.- Split is an option, "If Wharehouse user have the 'ability'" to decide this, frequently this windows is used by a warehouse user.
4.- Split is NOT an option, if sent PArtially is MORE expensive than sent Toghether, (it depends of the kind of products)"

Don't agree. As splitting only would happen when partial shippings are allowed in SO, we suppose that this means that all quantities should be allowed to be sent when available. This two scenarios make no sense for me in what we are trying to solve.

"On setting SO that you need sending when any product is available, then the line should be availabe if there is any product available and this is right BUT... when you are going to proccess line, system should show only quantity available to be sent, not SO's quantity and wizard should show only available lines and that's the bug, because user doesn't know quantity really available for products."

That's exactly what we are trying to solve and what we think is a bug: when partial shippings are allowed and a product have some quantity, checking availabilty leaves this line as there is no quantity available at all... and the workflow doesn't move forward, so no process button is shown (at least other lines have quantity to process, of course).

What you propose may be conceptually right (or at least a good approach), but would require to change all the workflow of shipping orders.
