Editing order question

Hi all,

Editing order item quantities or canceling order items also update
inventory item reservations.
But if there are also created shipment items and shipment plan, they are
not updated.

Is this a missing feature or there is a reason for doing so?
Any thoughts are appreciated.

Hi Bilgin

Personally I think the whole editing orders process needs a rethink, as you
dig into you'll probably come across a lot of things that don't make sense
and should be fixed.

If it does ever get reworked, my idea for the process was this:
Editing the order should take you through the same process as creating a new
order, just with the existing order loaded into the cart.  You should be
able to add/remove quantities and products, edit the payment methods,
shipping addresses etc.
When it comes time to process the order the system should just compare the
cart to the existing order and then make changes only where necessary.

Just my opinion though :-)

Regards
Scott

Scott, Jacques, thanks for your opinions.
It looks like what I want is not possible. One order item can be planned in
many shipments...
I will forget about it for now.

(lasy and quick answer) I suppose they are recreated from scratch when the shipment really occurs ?
