Only backorder picking is displayed: can't invoice partial receipt

[Kevin McMenamin]

Raise a PO with invoice control = from picking. In receive shipments/process product moves do a partial receipt by changing quantity and press validate.
The screen displayed is the incoming shipment screen for the backorder, not the incoming shipment screen for what has been received, so there is no button to press to create the draft.
Have checked under the purchasing and accounting menus and there is nowhere to create the invoice.

It also makes it quite complex (though not impossible) to print the delivery note, or create an invoice from a delivery, when there is a delivery back-order.

This affects outgoing and internal moves too. This is mitigated by the menu entry in "sales", but the problem still shows when trying to invoice a delivery you create directly.

This can probably be solved by opening the original picking when a backorder is created.
In a custom development of ours I did the following, probably it can be done in the standard too:
After creating the first back order:
                    if pick.type=='in':
                        view = 'view_picking_in_form'
                    elif pick.type=='out':
                        view = 'view_picking_out_form'
                    elif pick.type=='internal':
                        view = 'view_picking_form'
                    model_data_ids = obj_model.search(cr,uid,
                        [('model', '=', 'ir.ui.view'), ('name', '=', view)])
                    resource_id = obj_model.read(cr, uid, model_data_ids,
                        fields=['res_id'])[0]['res_id']
                    views = [(resource_id, 'form')]
And later at the end of the method:
        return new_ids and {'name': "Processed Picking",
                                'view_mode': 'form',
                                'view_type': 'form',
                                'views': views,
                                'res_model': 'stock.picking',
                                'res_id': new_ids,
                                'type': 'ir.actions.act_window',
                                'nodestroy': True,
                                'domain': '[]',
                                'context': context} or True
I can't propose a branch with a fix but I hope this helps.

I suggest this should be set a higher priority and be fixed before v7.0 is released, because the main goal of 7.0 is simplicity and this goes towards this goal.
