Why Legion Back Order?
Based on the module name and code, this module tracks how many deliveries/shipments a sale order has generated, including back orders. A back order in Odoo is created when a delivery is only partially fulfilled — the remaining quantity becomes a new delivery (back order).

Delivery Back Order.
Legion Back Order adds a delivery badge on the Sales Order list to instantly show how many deliveries were created for each order. This helps users quickly spot orders with no delivery, single delivery, or multiple deliveries (often indicating partial/backorder scenarios). It improves day-to-day dispatch tracking without opening every order.
Key Features:
- Delivery Count Badge on Sale Orders: Displays a color-coded badge directly on the sales order list showing how many deliveries are linked. Green means one delivery (clean fulfillment), red means two or more (back orders exist), grey means no delivery yet.
- Back Order Detection and Alerting: Automatically detects when a sale order has generated back orders by counting linked pickings. This gives sales teams instant visibility into which orders are partially fulfilled without opening each order individually.
- Visual Status Indicators: Color-coded badges replace the plain state field — muted/grey for unshipped, green for single delivery, red for back-ordered. This transforms a text-heavy list into a scannable visual dashboard.
- Delivery Tracking Integration: Links sale orders directly to all their associated stock pickings in one place, giving a complete delivery history per order including original shipments and any back orders created.
- Sales Team Efficiency: Helps sales representatives quickly identify problematic orders requiring follow-up. Red badges immediately flag orders where customers received partial deliveries and are awaiting remaining goods.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a back order in Odoo?
A back order is automatically created when a delivery is validated with some quantities undelivered. The remaining undelivered items are moved into a new delivery order linked to the same sale order.
Why does my badge show red on a sale order?
Red means the sale order has 2 or more deliveries linked to it, indicating at least one back order was created. This typically means the original delivery was only partially completed.
Will this module slow down my sales order list?
No. The delivery_count field is already computed by Odoo's sale_stock module. This module only adds visual presentation on top of existing data.
Does this work without the inventory/stock module installed?
No. This module depends on sale_stock being installed since it relies on stock.picking and the existing delivery_count field.
Can I customize the badge colors?
Yes. The decoration conditions in the view (decoration-success, decoration-danger) can be modified to change thresholds — for example making red appear at 3+ deliveries instead of 2.
Does this track back orders for purchase orders too?
No, currently this only tracks deliveries on sale orders. A separate module would be needed for purchase order back order tracking.
