Sale Order Approval Check Lists v.13
The tool to make sure a sale order is ready for the next stage
Check lists per sales team and order state
As a result when a sale order has an assigned team and gets its state updated, a check list would be automatically prepared.
How check list points might be missed
Often an order state change does not require fulfilment of all requirements. For example, when you cancel a sale it seems unreasonable to approve customer credibility.
In such a case you should merely define states moving to which doesn't need confirmation. It is possible to do right under the check list settings on a team form.
One of important use cases is also the state 'Quotation sent'. Sometimes, approval is required for an order confirmation but not for its forwarding to a client. This step might be even missed. In that situation you should define the same check points for the states 'Quotation' and 'Quotation Sent', while 'Quotation Sent' should be added as a no-checklist-required step.

Sale order multi approval flow
Since the tool let assign user groups for each checklist line, you may force various employees to take part in a sale evolvement. In such a way it is guaranteed that all actions are done and carefully checked.
When Odoo would warn salespersons to confirm check lists
Odoo will scan check lists as soon as a user tries to change sale state. In particular it happens when:
- A user tries to confirm an order ('Quotation' > 'Sale Order' and 'Quotation Sent' > 'Sale Order').
- A user locks ('Sale order' > 'Locked') or unlocks ('Locked' > 'Sale order') a sale.
- A user prints or sends a draft quotation ('Quotation' > 'Quotation Sent').
- A user cancels a quotation (any state > 'Cancelled') or re-set cancelled quotation ('Cancelled' > 'Quotation').
Surely, you are not obliged to have a check list for each state. Scanning of empty checklist is always considered as successful.
Besides, if you had custom stages, transitions to those would be also taken into account.

Super checklist user
In such a case you should assign the super check list access level for yourself or for any responsible manager. A user with such rights would be able both to change an order sate without approving check list and confirm any check point disregarding security restrictions.
