Hi, we've got 6 different kinds of shipments in Tryton: - Supplier in - Supplier return - Customer out - Customer return - Internal - Drop shipment
Still, there are some use cases not covered by these shipments which are quite usual. Here're four that come to my mind: - The supplier sent me the goods but I didn't purchase them. In this case, usually I will only purchase when I've sold them. - The previous scenario but I'm the supplier. So I send goods to the customer. It is in his warehouse but the stock is actually mine (specially important for accounting reasons). I will sell the goods as soon as he notifies my that he has sold them. - My customer sends me some goods so that I can produce a product for him. I may purchase some of the goods of a given production but not all of them. While the stock is in my warehouse it is still property of the customer until I consume them. - Similar to the previous one but now I'm the customer. I send some products to my supplier so he can do a production for me. In all of these cases the source and destination location type is the same (either both are supplier or both are customer). This makes it a bit strange because there's no type "customer in his warehouse" and "customer in my warehouse" or something like that, so there would be no difference between source & destination location domains in send & return versions of the shipment. Are there things that you think I should take into account before trying to write the blueprints for some of them? According to a comment by Cédric in this [1] issue we should not create customer locations inside a warehouse. Any ideas on how to manage the mentioned cases so that both ownership and management of the goods in the warehouse fit smoothly?
