[Erp5-dev] Aggregated Sale Invoices for Sale Packing List

[Lukasz Nowak]

Hello,

Since some time I'm trying to create Sale Invoice Transaction which will have
Invoice Lines based on more than one SPL (aggregated by date,
source*/destination* etc).

Is it possible to use portal_deliveries/sale_invoice_builder to do it? I
cannot find any documentation for that (only doc strings in
D/DeliveryBuilder.py and D/OrderBuilder.py).

I've made function which returned my templated invoice and put it in
Delivery Select Method, but after starting next SPL it has created new
invoice.

If it's not possible, I'll write my own aggregation script, which will do it,
but I thought that such situation is covered in ERP5.

Bye,
Luke

The purpose of Delivery Select Method is not to select a "template" invoice,
it's to select existing deliveries in which the delivery builder will try to
add some lines (if delivery and lines satisfies the Delivery Collect Order
Groups)

You just need to configure the builder, and if it's not enough, you can create
a Delivery After Generation Script that will be called on the context of the
newly created delivery.

Ok. Great.

Understood, I've looked in Nexedi's script, which do it, and it, lets say,
works...

Hm. I'm trying to figure out, how shall I configure it. I've searched
www.erp5.org site and mailing list for any hints, but without success. What I
got now is that proper delivery is found, then it's updated, but only if rows
aren't the same (quantities aren't updated, no new rows are added (which is
what I'm trying to achive, cos I want to have per-line causality, not
per-document)).

Well... Is there any example of such configuration or portal_deliveries
guide/howto? I belive, that people interested in ERP5 in future would be glad
for such document (which anyway describe very, very nice feature).

I'm trying to understand D/OrderBuilder.py and D/DeliveryBuilder.py by adding
some logging, right now w/o success.
