Move drop downs for Hub & Order Cycle selection to the top of the page - as there is no point starting the order process without entering those two details first.
Need to require selection of ‘distributor’ (shop?) and order cycle early so that fields that need to be are filtered appropriately . .
OC select needs search option - so many listed and in ‘no apparent order’ [FC]
Able to select Customer and add their info. ie address . . [talk to @oeoeaio about this, suspect would have to happen after Hub selected? probably need to use customer e.g. limit list options to people who have already purchased through this hub
Add order needs to be able to deal with (auto add?) Hub shipping address if it is a pick-up [@RohanM and @oeoeaio to discuss what needs to happen here]
initially shows ALL products across OFN, need to select distributor and order cycle before commencing adding products OR may potentially add products from anywhere [FC]
[NEW] order cycle selector enables you to start typing to select order cycle, rather than having to scroll
[NEW] Items added should take their price from the variant override if there is one
Maybe
Admin can add an Order to a closed Order Cycle (from admin?) [have a quick look and see how hard it is]
accidentally created this page as @oeoeaio sorry everyone - is secretly me!
pinging @lisahill@RohanM@sstead - have made this a wiki page so hopefully we can update to get clearer spec. Rohan - is pretty safe to start working from the top (I think first couple are quite self-explanatory), if in doubt discuss with Rob as he uses this interface quite a bit and knows what the problems are
@RohanM - need to talk to you about this tomorrow, make sure we’reactually attaching ‘customer’ to the order, not checking out as guest, because when this is a heavy user (e.g. FC) they are ending up with many duplicate customers
I’ve just finished (most of) a round of work on order management. Here’s a writeup of where I’ve gotten to.
Things that are done (in order-creation branch)
Require selection of shop and order cycle before anything else
Allow searching order cycle
Order cycles are marked with their status (open/closed/upcoming/undated) and sorted as: open and soonest closing, upcoming soonest opening, closed, undated
Restrict products to the chosen shop and order cycle
Products take variant override price and stock level into account
When selecting a customer, their addresses are filled out
Things that are not yet done
Enterprise user can’t search for previous customers (but super admin can)
Limit customer list to customers who have previously purchased through the chosen shop
When selecting a customer and this order is for pick up, fill in the shop’s address as the ship address
Check that customers are correctly associated with an order when it is created, rather than making a duplicate customer
The one little thing I found in testing… but it’s not something lots of people are going to accidentally do…
I created an order and selected one distributor and order cycle, then added a product to the order, then changed the distributor and order cycle, then added a new product (belonging to the second order cycle). It allowed me to do this, but told me I had made a mistake, adding a product from the wrong order cycle. But when I removed the first product and went onto the next step (customer details), it got confused and told me me…
When I then went back to the order edit page, i can see that it’s lost all the item from my order, kept the $33 total, and assigned the order to a 3rd unrelated distributor.
