+SL::DB::DeliveryOrder - Rose model for delivery orders (table
+"delivery_orders")
+
+=head1 FUNCTIONS
+
+=over 4
+
+=item C<date>
+
+An alias for C<transdate> for compatibility with other sales/purchase models.
+
+=item C<displayable_state>
+
+Returns a human-readable description of the state regarding being
+closed and delivered.
+
+=item C<items>
+
+An alias for C<deliver_orer_items> for compatibility with other
+sales/purchase models.
+
+=item C<items_sorted>
+
+Returns the delivery order items sorted by their ID (same order they
+appear in the frontend delivery order masks).
+
+=item C<new_from $source, %params>
+
+Creates a new C<SL::DB::DeliveryOrder> instance and copies as much
+information from C<$source> as possible. At the moment only instances
+of C<SL::DB::Order> (sales quotations, sales orders, requests for
+quotations and purchase orders) are supported as sources.
+
+The conversion copies order items into delivery order items. Dates are copied
+as appropriate, e.g. the C<transdate> field will be set to the current date.
+
+Returns one or two objects depending on the context. In list context
+the new delivery order instance and a shipto instance will be
+returned. In scalar instance only the delivery order instance is
+returned.
+
+Custom shipto addresses (the ones specific to the sales/purchase
+record and not to the customer/vendor) are only linked from C<shipto>
+to C<delivery_orders>. Meaning C<delivery_orders.shipto_id> will not
+be filled in that case. That's why a separate shipto object is created
+and returned.
+
+The objects returned are not saved.
+
+C<%params> can include the following options:
+
+=over 2
+
+=item C<items>
+
+An optional array reference of RDBO instances for the items to use. If
+missing then the method C<items_sorted> will be called on
+C<$source>. This option can be used to override the sorting, to
+exclude certain positions or to add additional ones.
+
+=item C<skip_items_zero_qty>
+
+If trueish then items with a quantity of 0 are skipped.
+
+=item C<attributes>
+
+An optional hash reference. If it exists then it is passed to C<new>
+allowing the caller to set certain attributes for the new delivery
+order.
+
+=back
+
+=item C<sales_order>
+
+TODO: Describe sales_order
+
+=item C<type>
+
+Returns a stringdescribing this record's type: either
+C<sales_delivery_order> or C<purchase_delivery_order>.
