Make-to-Order / Drop-ship only

wp.rauchholz
(1) Does ofbiz have a functionality on board that allows to create back-to-back purchase orders from e-Commerce sales orders (single sales orders with multiple lines back to back into a single purchase order with the same lines.), skipping requirements all together.
In my case I work with a single source of supply who is doing kitting for us.

(2) How exactly works the parameter 'Drop-ship only' set in item master / inventory?

Thanks, Wolfgang

Hi Wolfgang,

Yes, OFBiz has such feature out of the box.

A product with the setting 'Drop-ship only' activated works as a
make-to-order product. When one of your customers orders such a product
through the ecommerce component, 2 orders are created: 1 sales order (from
you to your customer) and 1 purchase order (from you to your supplier). You
can test this in the ecommerce  component of the demo site with
https://demo-trunk.ofbiz.apache.org/ecommerce/dropship1-dropShip1-p

When you go through the checkout process and you have the final order
confirmation, you'll see in the back-end order component the two orders
created. If your customer orders multiple drop-ship products, with each
product having a different supplier, you should see multiple purchase
orders.

Best regards,

Pierre Smits

Re: Make-to-Order / Drop-ship only

Thank you Pierre.
I will test this different scenarios which we could face:
(1) Customer places order, we place PO on supplier and from there it ships
directly
(2) Customer places order, we replenish components, a job shop completes to
create the fingood and supplier ships directly to customer
(3) Customer places order, we replenish components only partiall, a job
shop completes to create the fingood and supplier ships directly to customer

I went through thr cyclke as you suggested
(1) created e-Commerce order
(2) approved PO
(3) Quick Complete Drop Shipment (from PO)

I see it created the paid invoice. Att he bottom of the sales, although it
says Status 'Completed' and Invoiced 1 pcs, it also still says 'Remaining 1
pcs' and 'Qty Shipped 0'.
Is this correct?

Wolfgang
