rethink order lifecycle #398

Open babybunny opened 7 years ago

babybunny commented 7 years ago

orders go through several states received being filled fulfilled reconciled

and now there's an invoice hanging on there too.

The screens that implement this flow currently are numerous and confusing. Let's try to rethink what order processing can look like. Can steps like fulfillment take place inline on one page, for example.

It may be good to review this in preparation for the 2018-2019 program year.
We still get some errors like this one when we want to fulfill an order: (Safety Supplies order for 18012SAM)405 Method Not Allowed The method POST is not allowed for this resource.

We do need to figure this out sooner rather than later.

Currently, there is no way to reconcile an order, which means that the whole order needs to be deleted once it is invoiced, or there will be a charge listed for the original order and another charge for the invoiced amount.

My biggest concern about deleting old orders is our paint orders, since it was usually good to know the details of what had been ordered previously and to keep that info in mind when placing additional orders.

Is it officially the process that after orders are fulfilled, then they are deleted once we receive the invoice so that charges do not show for both the original order and final invoice amount?
