By which I mean, if the person handling sales gets Mr Smith to buy X item.

Then sales guy creates a sale order, when he confirms it you get can create a draft invoice or have it created automatically this of course connects directly to accounting, you can also view the delivery order which is directly connected to Warehouse module.

What I need is a connection to purchases, is there a configuration box that I can check or un-check or anything I can do so that it also created something under purchases so that the person responsible can actually purchase the items that will go into the warehouse?

Hope my explanation was well worded, I got all the info out of my head while being away from the computer.

Hello,

In product form, in procurment tab:

You have to configure your production as make to order (procurment method) and buy (supply method)

Then add at least One supplier for this else You will have a procurement exception in the menu warehouse -> Scheduler -> procurment exception

When you sale this new product, a draft purchase order will be created. (depending of your configuration you will have to launch scheduler.)

To run it:

To run it:

  1. Click on warehouse menu
  2. Run schedulers
  3. Check the box automatic orderpoint

You will see your quotation in purchase -> quotation . OpenERP will not create purchase order, but purchase quotation.

I did all of those and when I confirm a sale it the system will not create a purchase order draft.

  • have you run schedulers ? ( warehouse -> schedulers -> run schedulers )
  • have you some procurment exeption ? ( warehouse -> schedulers -> procurment exception)

I have no procurement exceptions, and I did run the schedulers but the box is always unchecked when I go back to that menu.

It is normal that the box is unchecked.

you have to check it and click on the red button "run scheduler" to have procurment and purchase_order. (you have to wait fiew minutes to see new purchase order).

I test it on runbot.openerp.com and it works... I can make video if you want.

There is a biut iof a problem with this, when I confirm a sale the PO draft does not automatically appear, but when I run the schedules I get two of them, one with the SO as an origin document and another one with the scheduler as an origin document, is there any confuiguiration where I can get only one draft?

Yes :) OpenERP just propose you a quotation, and if you agree you can convert to Purchase Order :)
