Deliveries module queries
1) When entering deliveries and updating prices there is nothing to tell you whether the 'auto-update' box has been ticked and therefore whether the sale price has in fact been updated without checking every item in the product field.
Would it be possible to either a) include the auto update box in the deliveries module so it can be ticked if necessary or b) generate a report at the end of the delivery that says what sale prices have been updated and what have not
2) Whenever a delivered item is adjusted and 'applied' the screen updates but takes you back to page 1 of the delivery. Can it be adjusted so that it returns to the position you were working at. (I think this is a problem in various areas of the program)
3) The Nett and List prices are visible in the delivery pages - can you also add the sale price
4) To make it easier to read when going thro orders and deliveries can the columns be made to have adjustable widths by dragging their borders as some columns do not need to be seen
5) If we order a new product that is not on the system there is nowhere in the deliveries area to add a new Product on the same invoice - could a 'New' button be added to enable this in the Delivery entry/adjustment area
6) Currently entering an order then adjusting the received delivery involves double handling - ordering and then entering a delivery. I can see that this will be useful when the program is able to link to an electronic e-ordering system but at present it would be easier just to take the delivery invoice and enter it and adjust it in one sitting rather than two. Is it possible to have an option in the program whether you want to process a delivery from either a) a previously entered order or b) just from a delivery invoice without a previous order being entered
7) Can single back-order items be canceled from the delivery screen - they seem to keep reappearing unless you accept delivery. If you try to cancel them the whole delivery is cancelled
8) If you get a part delivery of a backorder (ie of 3 boxes on b/o you only get one) & and enter the delivery of the one box will it adjust the b/o to reflect the 2 boxes remaining on b/o or will it assume the whole b/o has been delivered and finalise the delivery
These are some of the queries we have come up with as we get into using the module
Cheers,
Nick
Re: Deliveries module queries
I think some of the ideas you propose are very good and should be explored more in order to specify how they should work and get them JIRA'd.
In the mean time I think I can help with some of your other questions.
5. New Products. I actually thought it was possible to add a new Product in the search screen for products. This should be available for users with suitable permissions. I checked and the New button is not appearing so I will JIRA this as a bug.
6. Deliveries without Orders. This can be done now. Add a new delivery and select a supplier and stock location but do not select any order or just hit OK and you will have an empty delivery.
7. Cancel Deliveries. In order to cancel part of an order you need to edit the finalised order. Find the order in the Orders workspace and edit and you will find you are only allowed to enter a cancelled quantity. If the received quantity + cancelled quantity = order quantity on each line the Order Delivery status is Full.
8. As above the status of back orders is monitored through the order itself. It keeps track of the amount delivered for each order line via the deliveries received and will only make the order fully delivered when the above calculation is satisfied on all order lines.

Deliveries module queries
I couldn't find a JIRA for problem 5 that Nick had posted (If we order a new product that is not on the system there is nowhere in the deliveries area to add a new Product on the same invoice - could a 'New' button be added to enable this in the Delivery entry/adjustment area)
It's been bugging me too, so I've JIRA'd it here: https://openvpms.atlassian.net/browse/OVPMS-901
