What is the difference between invoice /order?
I need to creat order and mark pay and shipment. I need to creat invoice and mark pay and delivered once again. They don’t seem to have any connection with each other.
And at the same time, the system will not reminder my colleague to prepare the goods when custome place order and pay. Is there anything modules I miss? Thanks for your help
A customer order follows the following life cycle:
If module shipment is enabled:
Draft --> Validated --> Shipment in process --> Delivered -------> Processed (=Delivered + Billed)
\ \ /
-------------------> Invoice created ----/
If module shipment is not enabled:
Draft --> Validated —> Shipped --------------> Processed (=Shipped + Billed)
\ /
–> Invoice created —/
You can only create a shipping/delivery from the Order. I know seems impractical as a shipment should also be available from the Invoice. Also it’s more tedious going through a customer order then an invoice but Dolibarr is that way at the moment.
