Some time ago [we added the contact on orders](https://discuss.tryton.org/t/add-contact-and-invoice-party-on-orders/1813). This field allows to select any contact on the database and when using the party\_relationship the [contacts are sorted based on the distance between the parties](https://bugs.tryton.org/issue5853).
We have some users that are not using the party\_relationship module and for them all the contacts of the database are shown without any order. I’m wondering if we would have a simple sorting for this kind of users: “Contacts from same party shold shown first” and other contacts latter.
Toughts?

Indeed this is exactly the notion of distance that `party_relationship` introduce.
Maybe it could be doable to integrate part of it in the `party` module.

I filled [Basic distance calculation for parties (#10104) · Issues · Tryton / Tryton · GitLab](https://bugs.tryton.org/issue10104) which implements a basic distance calculation on party module by just returing a zero distance for the current party (and None for all others)
