Thanks, I will review and update.
It's never easy for someone which is acquainted with something to see how
someone new to it see it, moreover when time is passing.
We tend to see through our eyes, not the eyes of others, it's not a matter of
empathy or not, it's just like that (though empathy helps)
I found in my all life that this is a major problem we often neglect or are
sometimes not even aware of.
It's of course also a matter or resources, human resources are sparse for open
source projects like OFBiz...

The thread has also been hijacked.
I finally got the information that is missing from the wiki page at
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBTECH/Apache+OFBiz+Technical+Production+Setup+Guide.
The description about how to switch database technologies is missing some key
information
It needs to describe why 3 group-names need to be defined for the database. I
still don't know why one needs to have
- group-name="org.ofbiz"
- group-name="localmysqlolap"
- group-name="localmysqltenant"
all pointing to the same database but it is required.
Need an explanation.
The following steps need to be added to the list of things to be done to set up
the database to be in a technology other than Derby.
- Modify the "localmysql", "localmysqlolap" and "localmysqltenant" datasources
elements to connect to your database.
- Modify the "default" delegator element:
Change
<group-map group-name="org.ofbiz" datasource-name="localderby"/>
to
<group-map group-name="org.ofbiz" datasource-name="localmysql"/>
The OLAP and Tenant data sources will still use Derby. If you want to change
those to use MySQL also, then:
- Modify the "localmysqlolap" datasource element to connect to your OLAP
database.
- Modify the "localmysqltenant" datasource element to connect to your Tenant
database.
- Modify the "default" delegator element:
Change
<group-map group-name="org.ofbiz.olap"
datasource-name="localderbyolap"/>
to
<group-map group-name="org.ofbiz.olap"
datasource-name="localmysqlolap"/>
Change
<group-map group-name="org.ofbiz.tenant"
datasource-name="localderbytenant"/>
to
<group-map group-name="org.ofbiz.tenant"
datasource-name="localmysqltenant"/>
Pbviously this needs to be described in terms that can apply to other DB
technologies.
That got me past the "ant load-demo".

Hi James,
>From the posting Ron wrote I can't determine what specific use case he is
trying to address, but OFBiz does allow companies to work with multiple
currencies.
Are you working on the same aspect, or together? If so, please provide more
details.
