Hi Pierre, I just ask myself if certain functionalities in Ofbiz , like inventory management , are not to difficult for a "simple" vendor. I suppose most of the vendors have their own inventory system or don't need more than an ms excel file for the inventory and want just to publish their products. If i think at www.bol.com , they have plenty of vendors which are small retail shops who want to put a few products online but not a high volume of products. In every case i think it should be good to limit the boundaries to simple functionalities. Or propose at the end two possiblities at the vendor, a small or a complex system of functionalities to the vendor.
