To give some context to what exactly I mean to say -
1. I am aware of the fact the any addition made to the entities is
automatically taken care by OFBiz. What I referred was any alteration to
the entities like change in the size of the column, change in the data
type of a column, change in the primary key of an entity or change in a
relationship between entities etc.
2. Also what to do in scenarios when some entity field is deprecated and
we are still using it. For example, some time back, the 'federalTaxId'
field part of PartyGroup entity. We were using that entity and our
business logic was dependent on that. In a later release this field was
deprecated and moved to some other entity. What to do in such scenarios?

Hi Gautam Deb,
Once we Update the OFBiz n start it, automatically new entities are
added and from my last two years of experience i never saw the changes
in the existing entities relations that will effect the previous
revision. hopefully new ones are added and i see enough care is taken
by the community so as not to disturb the existing relations.
Hopefully i answered your point as i understood your question.

What is the best way to update the entities after an OFBiz update?
CURRENT SCENARIO - We are using OFBiz as the framework for our
application. We mainly use the the OFBiz apps Order Manager and
Party Manager. Apart from this we have some custom applications
which basically uses the Entity and Service engine. The OFBiz
update process for us is not so frequent. We update the OFBiz
every 4 - 6 months. The problem is that the OFBiz changes a lot in
this duration. For the changes in entities (to be precise any
alteration in the entity) we write manual SQLs and shoot them
against the database.
Thanks & Regards,
Gautam Deb
