Hi Hans,
The restaurant could be a facility, and the tables could be fixed
assets
located at that facility on the specified location(fixed assets also
has
location field). You can go even further and add a fixed asset for
every
chair and assign it to the table as child fixed asset. Production
capacity field can be used to store the number of chairs for every
table.
About plane-seats or bus-seats or cinema-seats, i think it is
explained
in Data Model Resource Book v2 page 370. May be it is time to import
these entities into OFBiz?
I believe, the best way for OFBiz would be to import these entities
from
Data Model Resource Book, and use a common model for storing all
kind of
reservations - room, table, cinema etc. But obviously this is a lot of
work...
It shouldn't be too much work, probably not compared with trying to
shoe-horn those concepts into entities with other purposes where it
doesn't quite fit.
I agree this is the approach to go with. I don't have my books nearby
to look it up, but if someone wants to write up entities I'd be happy
to review them.
