Pierre Smits commented on OFBIZ-3480:
-------------------------------------
Hi Taher,
I agree, lurking tickets should be addressed. I didn't have the time yesterday
or today to review the patch, but was planning to before or on the Community
Bug day coming Saturday. Was wondering though when you presented the patch,
whether it was indeed out of need or out of willingness to help.
Anyway, thanks for work you have done.
Best regards,
Pierre

> 1. While creating an organization, it is possible to specify a meaningful
> party id through ofbiz setup.
> 2. But, it is NOT possible to specify the party id through GUI while creating
> a Party (Person or Party Group). this means, all the parties created get a
> sequence id for party id.
> Bilgin Ibryam's replay is posted below.
> The PK field in party creation service is validated for special
> characters and so on. So the user is actually allowed to try with
> random text.
> I think this field is simply missing in the UI. That's why you are not
> "allowed" to enter the id.
> In addition to this, ofbiz display Ids in most of the forms ( and all
> the lookup fields). So it is very important to allow users to enter
> meaningful Ids, especially for data that it used for long period like
> partyId, facailityId, fixedAssetId, agreementId... So create forms
> should have an optional Id field (partyId, facilityId...) with a label
> saying that if an Id is not specified, the system will generate one.
