Re: Can´t create order from quote
I can't create a purchase order from a quote. the quote type is product
purchase
the error is:
Please enter a shipping address
no exception in the log file
it seems as if the shipping information isnt passed to the method that
creates the order
knowing that when I navigate to make a purchase order everything is ok
I'm using the svn version 10.04

I understand what are trying to say about the product being on my system but
this is how it goes in my case
I was really away from my resources and I just tried that in earlier version
and the PO was done successfully I'll investigate more in this and tell you
the results if you are interested

I have never used this feature.
the code that creates this is
applications\order\script\org\ofbiz\order\quote
createQuoteFromCart
From a business flow, I don't see a use for this the way it is written.
you making a quote for a product from a supplier, this means you need to
get the Suppliers Product Good ID, if your asking for price update to
that supplier.
createQuoteFromCart does not do this.
This requires you have the supplier product in the system already so you
have last price, which also is not included in the quote process.
my experience in requesting a quote from a supplier usually means you
don't have it in ofbiz yet. so using the createQuoteFromCart will not
work as written.
if you have a need for this then I would suggest you review the code
against normal business flow and make the modifications to it.
my 2 cents.

Hi Freeman Hi all
I go to order manager then choose quotes
click on the button create quote then choose the type to be product purchase
then I specify the from and to parties
From:Supplier
To:company
then I click submit the quote is created then I change the status of the
quote to be accepted
I click on the button create order in the quote screen then it navigates to
the order entry screen as if I'm in the middle of purchase order entry
would you please tell me what I'm doing is right or wrong
I know well that it's very ordinary to create sales order from a quote but
I'm asking if that's the case with purchase order
I'll repeat the error message that I encounter: enter a shipping address
there's no exception in the log file
when I go to create the PO again from ordinary order entry screen with the
same details I don't encounter any error messages
Thanks in advance

The usual way of creating quote just I set its type to product purchase
then I specify the from party to any supplier and to party to my company
I don't know if this is right or not and I didnt read about that in the wiki
I really need to know is this right or the quote is just part of the sales
process from the company to a customer.
If it's a part of a sales can you help me what are the different types of
quotes are used for?
Thanks in advance

Thanks a lot for your reply but you please explain more.
What I understood from your message is that the quote is a stage in the
sales order process and I can't create a PO from quote is that right?
would you please tell me the difference from business side what's the
difference between the two types of quote the Quote for product and quote
for product purchase
I'm very grateful for your help
Thanks a lot in advance

a quote is not a completed sale so should not generate a PO.
