Re: connector_ecommerce dependency in v9

Stephan, Atchuthan,

Could you start to work on that or is the migration path still too hazy?
If you could, which decision did you finally took for workflows and payments? Is there a branch to review already?

I really the following proposition, I quote you Stephan:

My suggestion at this point would be that the main flow for the automation would be to create an invoice and register a payment on the invoice.  I am assuming that most of the time when doing an order on a shopping cart, the customer pays in full (if not we could still manage that case I think).  So in that case we don't need the payment to be generated on the sales order.   That would have the advantage also to create a payment record, which for the end user is better than just a journal entry.   The creation of a payment on the sales order could still be done of course but in a separate module that is not required by the connector-ecommerce module.  I think this would be faster to port to v9 and easier to maintain.

I favor this proposition which does not preclude more advanced solutions as envisioned by Sébastien, but as you say that could be done in separate modules not required by connector-ecommerce.

Regards,
Guewen
