Dear all, I'm new in the Odoo world. I'm trying this beautiful software but I'm confused on the customer/supplier orders. I'm reading a lot of tutorials, but a lot of these are about version 13 or previous, so I can't find the solution for the v14.

I'm available to pay for the help, but reading on the forum I understood that customization is not so loved for Odoo and so I think the forum is the best place to find the solution.

I try to tell you all my needs, if someone is so kind to help me with some keywords or link, I'll happy to find the detailed solution by myself :-) or if someone can help me with more detailed informations, I can pay him on PayPal.

Usually the customer orders I receive are about products I've not in my warehouse, so I have to order them. Every order contains products from 6-7 different suppliers. If I have order from two different customers of the same product, the order need to be separate (for this I found the Propagate option that seems to be perfect). My needs are similar to the dropshipping, but ordered products need to come in my warehouse, only later they'll go out to the customer. When I send the supplier order I need to have a reference to the customer order, so when I'll receive products I know where to send this material (as in the dropshipping route). This is the first big problem, that in a week of trying I wasn't able to solve.

Another thing that I think is difficult is to understand WHEN all products of an order are available in my warehouse. Because a customer order contains 6-7 different suppliers products, it's difficult open every single order, click on the Shipping button to see what are available and unavailable materials. Any ideas also about this problem?

Thank you very much to all. Have a nice day!
