Comment 18 for bug 596862

OK Joël!!
You are right. At less we will have a solution to revert packings on 5.0.

I totally agree that is not possible touching actual functionality on 5.0!!
I also agree that the right workflow definition for reverting packings
should be included on next stable version.

Thank you very much for your clean explanation!!

> To reproduce :

> 1. Create a SO with 1 line (no matter the configuration)

> 4. Goto to the packing, you cannot cancel it, there is no button ! The

> 5. Ok, so now you try to Delete this "done" packing in order to cancel your
> SO and it's not possible anymore !!! Says you cannot delete a done packing
>
> So, you cannot cancel, you cannot delete the packing... But you need one of

>
> We do need something here to be able to cancel the SO, whatever it is.
