0043776: [Cancel and Replace] Reservation and Stock data gets corrupted

DescriptionReservation and Stock data gets corrupted when canceling and replacing from the POS as the triggers are not active.
Steps To Reproduce- Login into the POS
- Create a ticked with a line with delivery method "pick up in store"
- Pay the ticket
- Load the ticket
- Cancel and Replace
- Pay the ticket

The reservation header is now wrong for both reservations but the lines are correct.
If OMS module is installed, Stock by Warehouse information will also be incorrect.

--Test Plan Mantis--
Beforehand, the environment needs to have enabled the following preferences:
- Web POS Enable Delivery Modes
- Enable Stock Reservations
- Enable Cancel and Replace
- Cancel and Replace orders with deliveries
- Cancel and Replace orders totally paid and delivered
- Cancel and Replace Layaways without Payments and deliveries
- Cancel and Replace Layaways without Payments and deliveries
- Web POS action Cancel and Replace
- Web POS action Cancel Layaway/Order
- Web POS Cancel Layaway/Order and New

IN THE BACKEND - As the The White Valley Group Admin role:
- Go to the Product window and open the Headlamp ultralight
  record. Select "Pickup in store" in the Delivery mode field.
  Save the record.

IN POS - With Vall Blanca Store User - openbravo
- Create a ticket with the Headlamp ultralight and pay normally
  with cash.

IN THE BACKEND - As the The White Valley Group Admin role:
- Go to the Sales Order window and open the just created record.
  Select the only line in the Lines Tab and press the Manage Reservation
  button. Select the only record available and Done button.
  Save the record.

IN POS
- Open the previously created ticket.
- Cancel and Replace
- Pay the ticket with cash as before.

#In this moment the modified code is executed#

IN THE BACKEND - As the The White Valley Group Admin role:
- In the Stock Reservation window can be seen the previous Reservation
  (now cancelled) and the new reservation (as completed). Here both
  records' headers are now correct.

This issue has been moved to Design Defect due to the complexity of finding the proper solution.

The proposed fix is a good starting point to find the solution, as the underlying problem happens because the Reservations are processed with the Triggers disabled.
However, as it is, this fix can be the cause of regressions.

It is important to find the proper place to enable the triggers.
Ideally, the BackEnd code should always consider that it is executed with the triggers enabled, as it was designed with this concept in mind.
However, this may not be true if it is called from a POS process that has disabled the triggers first.
In this case, the same process that has disabled the triggers should be responsible to enable them before calling a BackEnd process.

But this situation is quite complex and it is not easy to find where the triggers should be enabled.

First, the calls to this functionality both in the OrderLoader and in CancelLayawayLoader are executed intentionally with the triggers disabled:
  - https://code.openbravo.com/erp/pmods/org.openbravo.retail.posterminal/rev/2d5a50ee702c [^] [^]
  - https://code.openbravo.com/erp/pmods/org.openbravo.retail.posterminal/rev/70933f1a2d22 [^] [^]
Then, the triggers are enabled again, in BackEnd code for some other processes:
  - https://code.openbravo.com/erp/devel/pi/rev/074035fe2953 [^] [^]
  - https://code.openbravo.com/erp/devel/pi/rev/8344e88e2e18 [^] [^]

This approach of starting with the triggers disabled and then, in BackEnd code, enable the triggers in each specific process is not working, as it is raising plenty of issues.
The reason to move this issue to a design defect is because this functionality must be reviewed to understand what must be executed always with the triggers enabled and what should be executed sometimes with the triggers disabled.
With this research, the code should be refactored properly.

Take into account that the Cancel And Replace functionality peroforms plenty of actions such us:
  - Update, Create and Process Orders
  - Create and Process Shipments
  - Create and Process Payments
  - Update, Create and Process Reservations
Reviewing all this flows implies a significant effort.


Additionally, there is one extra concept to consider.
POS is not aware actually of Reservations.
This means that they are not taken into account by POS processes.
This issue can happen to anyone that uses POS, Reservations and Cancel And Replace, under some specific circumstances.
But it is true also that this issue is more obvius for clients that try to incorporate the concept of Reservations in the POS.
Until this functionality is properly included in the POS, issues related to try to incorporate Reservations in the POS, like this one, are bound to happen.


Finally, about the proposal.
There is a problem in which code that previously was executed with triggers disabled now is executed with triggers enabled.
If this patch is going to be used in a client, I propose to flush before enabling the triggers and then flush again before disabling them.
This will ensure that there are no side effects to the flows that are currently working with the triggers disabled.
On the other hand, this means that it is necessary to execute 2 more flushes, which might have an impact in performance.

Note:

With the proposed fix, it is necessary to apply the patch 0001-Reservations-related-to...

Since the Reservations are properly calculated by the triggers, the logic of the hook for CancelAndReplace should be removed, if not, the Stock will be calculated twice.
