- I expressed myself badly,
What I meant was: Add a new status, not in fk_status (draft, validated, etc), but create a field envoyed (reported to third) with yes/no, 0/1, etc...
My first idea was to be updated automatically when we sending by e-mail the doc with the dolibarr button into item card (propal, order, etc), and if is envoyed showing into lists, with the status (validated, closed, etc) a e-mail icon...
This be work also with SMS module, etc...
PS: If document is reopened (draft again...?) the field should return to not envoyed, because the document may vary... - Maxime Kohlhaas 2013-03-08 14:03
- If I may tell my opinion, I think what Juanjo meant is that in the docs workflow (for proposal : draft, validated, closed, billed), there's nothing to tell that the proposal has been sent to the third and that we are waiting for response.
The real question is : should we use the status to tell the difference between a doc just validated and a doc sent to the third ? This might be usefull like this and allow to work only on docs we know something is to be done, and have the docs "waiting for third" separated.
I agree on the fact that having a status "sent by mail" is too restrictive.
Regarding actioncomm, I think that everybody does not use the agenda module and don't have the actioncomm activated.
What new status could be :
proposal : draft, validated, waiting for answer, closed, ...
order : draft, validated, confirmed to third, closed...
invoice : draft, validated, unpaid, paid...
I mean today, once an invoice is validated, it's directly unpaid, but could be not transmitted to third yet...

- Adding a field for "email" is not enough. We may also want to know later it sms was sent, or if element has been synchronized with external system, etc...
We may also want to know how many mails was sent and when ?
And this information is already stored into table llx_actioncomm.
So I suggest to add a field into llx_actioncomm to store a code "specific" to event.
We can then modify trigger ActionsAuto to add a specific code for each event ("send email", "validate").
Then we should use this table to know all events done for the element (id of element is already stored into table).
This will avoid duplicate information and will open more other needs. I think this change match this need and ticket can be set to 100% if everything is ok.
I pushed a change to have this information filled into 3.4. You can use the field "code" into table llx_actioncomm to find all emails sent for a particular element.
