Human Essentials is an inventory management system for diaper, incontinence, and period-supply banks. It supports them in distributing to partners, tracking inventory, and reporting stats and analytics.
This is step #8 of adding the ability to specify "packs" versus "individual" for requests

BLOCKED by #4351
If the distribution is from a request, add a"Requested" column beside the current item fields
The # of requested items and the requested units will be shown beside the corresponding item in the distribution entry.
If the request is using a custom request unit (not the default units), the quantity for the distribution of the item will not be initially filled in. The purpose of this is to reduce the likelihood of errors of the "leaving the number that was there because we fulfilled what they wanted" type. If the item doesn't have custom request units, or the item request uses the default units, the quantity for the distribution will be filled in.

Identified rules
In all cases:
May put 0 as a quantity
Saving with blank quantities will give an error
May remove any item
May add more items. This functionality will work as it does currently, except for the 0/blank behavior as noted above
On new or edit, not-from-request:
Do not show the requested column
On new, from request
Show the requested column, including units if any
Quantities for items requested with custom units are initially blanks
Quantities from items requested without a custom unit are initialized to the amount requested
Items that were NOT from the request show "n/a" in the requested column
On edit, from request
Quantities for items requested, that are not included in the current distribution, are initialized to 0.
Show the requested column, including units if any. (even for the items that are not included in the current distribution)
Item selection for requested items is frozen (i.e. only display the item name)
Item selection for not-requested items is not frozen (should be like the current distribution, barcodes and all)
may remove
N.B.
All of the changes for PACKS must be implemented behind a flipper flag "enable_packs"
Criteria for completion
[ ] functionality as described above
[ ] tests that support the functionality as described above
Background
The following sections have been identified as required for the PACKS implementation. These should be implemented in numerical order.
Summary
