Yes the origin could be empty but the list of possible action will
probably be limited.

As usual in Tryton, the relate functionalities will be available.
And probably a relate from sale to linked complaint is a good addition.

For me received is not really a state.
'draft' means the employe is still working on it (filling the case with
the customer, trying to find a solution etc.)

This is a state that has meaning to the customer but he is not a user of
the system. So here 'waiting' means the employee is waiting the approval
of the chief.

For me, 'approved' is better because it is what the employee is looking
for. Because once the complaint he manages is approved by his chief then
he can process the actions.

I think it is a too simple way to see it.
When the complaint is set to done, it just means we have done the
actions for which there was an agreement with the customer. Of course he
can complaint again and so a new complaint will be created.
So for me, the satisfaction of a customer should be seen as the ratio of
complaint done over compaint cancelled.
Because when it is cancelled, it means the customer complaint about
something but you did no action.

So it is a credit note action. Or if you have a more complex setup with
credit card etc. of course you will need to define a new action for
that.

The quantity and unit price is defined on the action of creating sale or
invoice base on sale line or invoice line. So it covers the free
product.

This is not a customer complaint because you are proactive on the topic.
And in this case, I think nothing new is needed for Tryton as you could
just edit the shipement to change the product.

I have no idea that's why it is in future improvements.
