Ability to ship/source from multiple sources in 1 shipment

[seansan]

Description (*)

We have 3 sources in 1 stock. All 3 sources are local and I can walk there ... and pick the items. Source 1 is in our store wh, source 2 is in the large warehouse and source 3 is used for incoming items.

If our stock looks like this source 1: 1 source 2: 1 source 3: 1 then salable qty = 3

An order comes in from 1 customer ordering the 3 last items. Now we cannot make 1 shipment sourcing from source 1, 2 and 3 ...

Expected behavior (*)

• Use source selection algoritm and apply it across sources respecting the priority and salable qty.
• The user can create 1 shipment utilizing all 3 sources

In short: one should be able to ship by sourcing from several different sources in 1 shipment. In real life sources may not be geographically located for away, but they might all be close to each other. You then want Magento to sum all sources to ship it in 1 go. If you need 10 items, find them amongst the sources based on some prio, source them and ship them in 1 go.

Benefits

1 shipment instead of 3. It is almost ridiculous to create 3 shipments and un-doable.

Current implementation doesn't allow this.

Imo, their current logic is incorrect/insufficient.

They link sourcecode to shipment, because they assume each "source" handles their shipping on site.

But ultimately such consideration should be ignored in favour of the more flexible and accurate way of handling this:

Link source code to shipment of specific items. (link it to the items, not the shipment itself)

I hope Magento implements this at some point, it's pretty annoying to have to create seperate shipments when it's really just one shipment. (not to mention confusing for customers)
