Comment 4 for bug 894229

You are perfectly correct in everything you say Amit Parik and i'm pretty sure this is going to turn into a question rather than a bug.Your reply was wonderful alongside that video which perfectly illustrated what i want and showed it can be done (allthough you moved pretty fast and i had to replay the video a few times :))

I think my problem was that i had installed the mrp_jit (just in time) module which i think automatically ran the procurement.So in the light of the new evidence you brought up i have uninstalled the mrp_jit module and:

1.Logged out
2.Logged in
3.Restarted the server
4.Create a new sale order
5.Add a product to the order line
6.Save SO
7.Confirm SO

By this stage i have already the manufacturing order created with the default bom (first as you just said) and the procurement exception is in Running State alongside all the P.E's that have "Exception" state because i have not defined minimum orderpoint rules

So i do not have a pretty "Run Procurement" button as you do in the video

I must be doing something wrong, if you have any pointers on this i would very much apreciate it.

Your help so far has been wonderful, thank you very much Amit!
