Hi Pierre, Let me first say hat we appreciate your efforts in this area but remember it is all voluntary unpaid work and does not have the top priority. Luckily David already answered a lot of your questions, saves me a lot of time :-)
Yes i have someone from my Antwebsystems team working on it. My plans are as follows of which point 1 should be finished in the next few weeks, the other points I do not have yet allocated manpower to. We will also commit your patches pretty soon. 1. leads/contacts/accounts (working on this one) We will rewrite the search/list functions and reusing as much as possible within these 3 functions implementing the all/my leads/contacts/accounts principle. Either all accounts in the system or all accounts assigned to me(logged in user). We will use the forms and the performfind service which is now standard practice in the ofbiz system We keep the current file organization and format which is shown in the sfa demo data. 2. Add a screenlet to the overview to show to whom the lead/contact/account is assigned. 3. Events and calendar (add the existing portlet) 4. Create/assign/track activity/task related to an opportunity/lead/contact/account 5. Implementation of sales teams: open for discussion and probably need a customer assignment for this. to be continued...... regards, Hans On Tue, 2009-10-27 at 14:02 +0100, Pierre Smits wrote: > Dear Hans, > > Thank you for your prompt reply... > > It is nice to read that we are working on reorganizing the SFA component.
