Hi Jacques,

In my opinion when I read deleteWorkEffort i'm expecting an entity-auto service, that will remove my workEffort entry from database.

In this case it's removing the workEffort and all related entity, so i propose to rename the service to removeWorkEffortAndRelated.

This service is to be used when i really don't care about related data.

Then we could replace deleteProductionRunRoutingTask with removeWorkEffortAndRelated service...

The question remains, should we still define a deleteWorkEffort entity-auto service ? I'm not sure that will be useful, but that's not costly to have one defined...

Hi Nicolas, All,

Nicolas: are you speaking about deleteProductionRunRoutingTask (OFBIZ-9568), deleteWorkEffort (OFBIZ-9185) or both ?

I think you answered only about deleteWorkEffort and then I agree.

I was also reluctant to remove it. But then we need to define what would be it's minimal implementation. Because as Deepak said, when you want to delete a workeffort with relations with other entities (hence FKs); then you need to delete those other entities before. And in some case it can be quite hard (I try to generalise from this case).

I wonder if a new simpler service like deleteSimpleWorkeffort would not be appropriate. A simple workEffort would not have any relations with any entities, else the call would be rejected by this new service. Because generalising seems hard, even more when considering all entities, like eg OrderHeader see https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBENDUSER/How+to+delete+tuples+added+to+test+a+setup and also related thread https://s.apache.org/DCiI

This time I want to get to some action :D

Hello Jacques,

It's a good example why I explained that delete is interesting in some cases.

We implemented a process with template workeffort where an operator create a production run from the templating and delete some task that is not needed before start. In this context, I have no reason to keep these workeffort on the database.

I'm in favor to keep these services as simple as possible and in coherence with the create service with information that the delete service doesn't manage all foreign key and we need prepare the delete before. For all other case, expire will own friend :)

Hi,

Please give your opinion on OFBIZ-9568 before I continue on OFBIZ-9185

Thanks
