Order life cycle - misunderstanding

[biletnikov]

Hello all,
I'm developing a service which creates Sales and Purchase orders and I faced some troubles.
Let me show the example:

Parties:

Customer

Supplier A company, Supplier B company, Supplier C company - they have warehouses and they are able to ship products to customers

WebShop company - helps to customer finds products through million offers. The OFBiz is used by this party. The Customer makes an order with list of order items. Each order item can be related to the different supplier. OFBiz creates the Sales order for all items which is ordered by the Customer, after that WebShop company creates Purchase order for each supplier which are responsible for an item(s), also, the suppliers are responsible for the shipping, so the Purchase order has shipping address of the Customer.

As result, the WebShop company does not manage the shipping process.
How to complete the Sales and Purchase orders, because we do not have the actions on the order view page for that?
For this moment, we can only approve them.
Thanks.

sounds to me what is called dropshipping
it is already in ofbiz.
