I need to keep track of a transaction history so I can easily see where transaction comes from and to what it was ported.

The idea is to track transaction PORTING history.
-------------------------------------------------
The history of the the Transaction should show:
#Date + TRANSACTION + Trans# (by LineItemID) + Status 2 +
1 <> |__-Customer Order____| 165545 cPOli#_________| Completed
2 <> |_______-ShipOUT_____| BLO1500 shpli#_________| Completed
3 <> |_______-VendorPO____| vPO1546 vPOli#_________| Completed
4 <> |___________-ShipIN___| BLO9987 shpli#_________| Completed
5 <> |_______-ShipOUT_____| BLO1500 shpli#_________| Shipping
6 <> |___________-ShipIN___| BLO9991 shpli#_________| Completed
7 <> |_______-ShipOUT_____| BLO1501 shpli#_________| Shipping
(...)

1-A customer orders 3 hoppercars of a SAME product (only ONE record in the Order line item file)

2-Porting 1/3 hopercars to ShipOUT.
we have one in stock so part of the line item in the customer order is ported to a Shipment OUT.

3-Porting 2and3/3 hoppercars to VendorPO
we have to order the other 2 hoppercars to a vendor to fill the rest of the order. So the second part of the order line item is ported to a Vendor PO Which orders 2 hoppercars of a SAME product.

4-Porting Vendor PO to Shipment IN
The vendor confirms shipment of the first container, so part of the vendor PO line item is ported to a shipment IN.

5-The first container to come in is to be shipped OUT, so we port from CustomerOrder to Shipment OUT.

6-The second container comes in. se we again port from CustomerOrder to Shipment OUT.

...And the thing goes on for invoicing and payments...
--------------------------------------------------

I guess, upon porting from a transaction to an other that we must SUBSCRIBE the process to a certain trackID or something. I'm a bit confused and would greatly appreciate example files of such beast. Or maybe just advice on the basic needs and pitfalls.

hey... thank you all for your GREAT help. :-)
