Hi,
We have the following business case:
1. as a book distributor, we handle consignment stock from other
publishers. Sold items are invoiced to us when we send the customer
invoice.
2. as a book diffusor, we sometimes do « deposit » in bookshops: our
books *and distributed ones* are shipped without invoice to some
bookshops and we invoice them when the books are sold.
The module stock_consignment seems to handle (1) correctly. (2) seems to
work too, for books that are from our own production.
But we cannot manage to make it work for supplier consigned books.
Here is the stock configuration we tested:
WH
|- Storage STO
|- Consignment Supplier S1 (type=supplier)
Customer (type=customer)
|- Consignment Client C1 (type=storage)
|- Consignment Supplier C1-S1 (type=supplier)
Having a product move from Consignment Supplier S1 to Customer creates a
supplier invoice line (ie, we sold the item).
Having a product move from Consignment Client C1 to Customer creates a
client invoice line (ie, we sold the item).
Having a product move from Consignment Supplier C1-S1 to Customer
creates no line. We would expect it to create 2: both customer and
client invoice line.
PS: I’m surprised by the asymmetry between customer and client storage
types. Why are consignment client storages to be created below Customer
global location? Supplier consignment locations are created below our
Warehouse, not below the top most Supplier location. Why can’t we
create Client consignment locations below a new Consignment storage that
would not be child of Customer CUS? Customer CUS location seems to me it
contains all sold items. But customer consignment stocks are not sold
yet…
