[jira] Commented: (OFBIZ-830) Inventory balance for orders with picklists

Ray Barlow commented on OFBIZ-830:

I applied the patch to my live system when I posted here so from my perspective 
it is running fine and has been for 2 months.

The second scenario is still an issue and I'm thinking, certainly for now, that 
the process of triggering a rebalancing against any open lines would be the 
most appropriate. 95% of the time nothing will happen as most picklists are 
complete orders and get picked completely so it shouldn't introduce a major 
overhead. But it would be good to get thoughts on this area.

Re: Invoicing is not working in trunk

2007-05-23 Thread Jacopo Cappellato
I think that the issue is resolved now... my guess is that the error was 
caused by the missing  tag in the init order entry screen.

After I've applied the patch from Adrian Crum, it is working pretty well.

Re: GeoData for India

Vikash,
Do you have data file prepared for it already?

If you already have data file then It will be nice to create a Jira Issue
and Attach a Patch with modifications. If you are stuck somewhere in
preparation of data file then upload what ever you will like share in Zip
format. It will be lot easier to help that way.

Keyword search does not work beyond 2nd result page
---

 Key: OFBIZ-1013
 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-1013
 Project: OFBiz (The Open for Business Project)
  Issue Type: Bug
  Components: ecommerce
Affects Versions: SVN trunk, Release Branch 4.0
 Environment: FC 5 and Postgres 8
Reporter: Rohit Sureka


Hi,

I guess the keyword search does not work beyond the 2nd page. If a search query 
shows many results spreading over multiple pages, the search keyword is not 
considered beyond page 2 and all the items are shown. For eg. a search keyword 
throws results across 4 pages, and if you click the next page button, then the 
page 3 shows all products and not only those related to the keyword.

Re: How to structure CMS?

2007-05-23 Thread Chris Howe
Hi Al,

I've been playing with Apache Xindice on and off over the past weeks
and months.  Depending on how you plan on storing/ structuring content,
an integration there may be a better way to go.  I haven't thought
about content much, but representing it in an RDBMS on its surface
seems troublesome.  Perhaps something along storing some meta data in
the database along with the contentId and leaving the structuring to
the xml database may be workable.  Perhaps I just have a new hammer so
everything looks like a nail.  

On its surface it seems a better way to store xml content instead of
storing it as a blob in an RDBMS.

Let me know your thoughts.

Updated and Reformatted OFBiz User List Page

2007-05-23 Thread David E Jones


Hello all,

We've had some new clients going live so I was updating the User List page on 
docs.ofbiz.org and decided it was about time to put the info there into tables 
and add more to the details there.

I moved all of our clients from the list into the table and a couple of others, 
but it'll be a bit of work to move all of them so I'm writing to invite 
everyone to move their sites or their client's sites to the table and add 
details as appropriate.

Part of this change is to list service providers for the sites and categorize 
them a little better. So, for service providers this is your chance and place 
to show off a bit.

Here is the page:

http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBIZ/Apache+OFBiz+User+List

Also on a side note for any service providers that aren't on it already, please 
add your listing to the service providers page:

http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBIZ/Apache+OFBiz+Service+Providers

Thanks, and enjoy!

application module suggestion

2007-05-23 Thread BJ Freeman
I have a import routine for supplier info and supplier inventory
it has a ftl for the import, Java file for the events, and adds to the
controller, xml for menus.
Currently this resided in my module.

I thought that it would be a good example for future imports. as well as
useful.
to create the patch should I use the example or another module.
Also a suggestion where the menus should show up in the module.

Ideas about editing orders

2007-05-23 Thread Jacopo Cappellato
In my opinion, one of the areas in which OFBiz could be greatly improved 
is the order editing process in general.
The existing services and screens are well suited for sporadic changes 
to already created orders, but they are not good enough when you need 
more control over what you are doing or for use cases where orders are 
big and complex and they are created and edited in multiple sessions.


I see two good path we could follow (and they are not mutually exclusive):

1) improve/enhance the edit quote screens; this will mostly address the 
use case of complex orders; all the work will be done in the quote and 
when it is good enough it will be transformed into a real order; however 
we will need to enhance many aspects of the quotes (to take into account 
billing/shipping addresses, geo rules, taxes, shipping costs etc...)


2) create new screens (e.g. adding new subscreens to the view order 
screen) and services to edit order items, adjustments, addresses and 
contact mechs, payment preferences and payment transactions, shipment 
groups and reservations, etc...


For #2, in order to have a greater control of what is happening, I think 
we should find a way to disable all the services running by ecas; the 
best way of doing this is probably that of using a special flag (or 
status) on the order to mark it as a "work-in-progress/on hold": if the 
order is in this status no eca will run; as soon as the flag/status will 
be removed all the checks/ecas will be executed and all the issues will 
be shown in an screen ("issues with the current order") so that the user 
can fix them before releasing the order.


Does it make any sense?
