QuickShipEntireOrder

2013-05-23 Thread vivek mishra
Hello Folks,

On quick shipping entire order, I found that order is packed and a shipment
is created. But in the facility manager shipment status is shown as packed
not shipped.

Does quick ship entire order feature automate the shipment process till
packaging and then it needs to be shipped manually. Though in my opinion it
should ship the order as well.

Please provide your suggestion and correct me if I am wrong.

Thanks & Regards,

Re: New to OFBiz. How to modify the eCommerce app?

Thanks everyone.  Your suggestions are helpful.

I think I'm going the route of making a copy of the eCommerce app for now.
I might look more at BigFish also.

Thanks for the help.

Re: New to OFBiz. How to modify the eCommerce app?

2013-05-23 Thread Nick Rosser
If a level of customization is absolutely required then of course that's 
the way to go.


I did understand the question, if wasn't that complex. The original 
objective was "I'm interested in developing some personal eCom sites 
based on OFBiz". The beauty of OFBiz is the comprehensive data model and 
service layer, all great stuff. The problem is that it is not 
out-of-the-box-ready for building systems. BigFish solves that (for 
eComm) and allows the building and configuration of eCommerce sites in 
very short order.


Robert: either way, welcome to OFBiz!

Fashion demo just downloaded, empty database.


1/ When I click on Apparel > Active, I can't see the PLP and have the
following groovy errors :

If I click a second time on Apparel > Active, then I get the PLP.


2/ If I then try to go into a PDP, I either have another groovy error

Yes, I am aware of this, as well as how to do it using Apache's httpd
server.  But I was under the impression that OFBiz used a customized
version of Apache Tomcat, and I do not know how to handle SSL in
Tomcat in general nor how to configure it to use or better require use
of client side certificates.  I do not even know where OFBiz puts its
container when it is installed (in my case on Suse Linux).

I am aware of this too.  I have a handle on that, involving contact
between a registration authority and the users, and issuance of single
use credentials to the users, for access (over HTTPS) to a specific
website (written in Perl),  The RA would establish, also, a set of
challenge and response questions and answers with the users, so that
the identity of the user can be verified by the combinatin of single
use credentials and challenege/response questions.  This part of the
process, along with documentation the shows the RA's processes indeed
verify the users' identities, is entirely external to OFBiz, which is
why I didn't mention it before in this context.

OOPS, we have a misunderstanding here.  The objective is NOT to
rewrite the SSL infrastructure, although it will be used extensively.
Rather, the objective is to provide support for non-repudiation, hence
relating the client side certificate provided by the client machine to
the identity of the user.  Further, as an example, consider the nature
of ecommerce: this is essentially a sales contract, and while one
dimension of the security need for the integrity of such a contract
involves assuring the identities of the parties to the contract, the
contract itself needs to be handled in a way in which the details of
it can readily be verified and assured against subsequent modification
without the express consent of both parties.  Thus, in ecommerce, at
the checkout page, we need all the data in the shopping cart to be
included on the checkout page, and we want that, along with the amount
of the transaction, timestamp, &c., to be put into a single document
and signed and encrypted.  The resulting binary data would be stored
with the transaction data, and made easily retrievable/viewable by
both both parties to the sales contract and the banks used by the
merchant and customer (in case the custmer takes a dispute to the
issuing bank and demands a chargeback - such a document would be
priceless for the bans to determine whether or not there was a valid
sales contract between a merchant and client and is presently
generally unavailable in card not present transactions).  While
ecommerce is an obvious application for what I have in mind, I can see
other parts of OFBiz which may involve some sort of contract between
parties and which may benefit from having this sort of capability
(relations between different departments within a company?
accountability of staff to their supervisor? others, to be requested
by parties using ofbiz?).

The thing is that if the application server asks for a client side
certificate, the client's browser will offer one from the browser's or
OS' store (I am not sure if, when the store contains more than one
client side certificate if the browser asks the user which one to
send, but I'll examine this complication in due course).  But then, I
would expect that one can get at the client's ID from that certificate
using code written in Java just as one can using Perl (I dont recall
the details, or whether I'd need to use openssl installed on the
server and invoked from Perl, but I recall seeing it can be done
without too too much pain), so that what the certificate says about
the client's identity can be stored with the signed and encrypted
document (which, of course, the client's public key

Re: operating a single OFBiz with multiple companies.

2013-05-23 Thread Adrian Crum
The current data model provides for this, but it will require setting up 
the data correctly and adding a bit of code.


At 1Tech, we implement Organization Contexts. An Organization Context is 
a combination of data and code that allows a user to "log into" an 
internal organization and all data is filtered accordingly (the user 
sees only the data for that internal organization).


The basic idea is to relate various documents, parties, etc to the 
internal organization, then check for that relationship while 
searching/displaying data.

This means that every company in the holding will do his own

orders are sent between ofbiz internal organizations as well as 
shipments, invoices and payments.


So, in other words, a purchase order for the originating organization 
is send to another internal organization which needs to be converted 
to a sales order for the receiving organization. The same for 
shipments, invoices and payments. These documents can also be sent via 
web services between completely separated OFBiz installations.

be able to add other orders or, to be able on the order screen to add
an order to an existing (not yet shipped) shipment (with the same
destination)

Then we have to check with the invoice generation if it can list
shipment items related from different orders.

any other suggestions welcome

Business requirement:

a manufacturer has a pre-sheduled shipping time (every week or so)
when orders can be delivered to a single customer. Up to the last
moment orders can be added to the group shipment.

The customer requests a single invoice for the items from the orders
in this shipment.

How to implement this is OFBiz? anybody suggestions?

I am thinking creating a shipment group relating to single shipments
and this shipment group is related to a single invoice which also
lists the orderid the invoiceitem is on.

Any help appreciated because i would like to add this to the OFBiz
core system.

Hans

operating a single OFBiz with multiple companies.

2013-05-23 Thread Hans Bakker
We are currently implementing OFBiz in a large organization (300M$ 
reveneu) )which intends to use all major components of OFBiz including 
accounting.


This means that every company in the holding will do his own accounting 
and operation concerning orders, invoices and payments, so orders are 
sent between ofbiz internal organizations as well as shipments, invoices 
and payments.


So, in other words, a purchase order for the originating organization is 
send to another internal organization which needs to be converted to a 
sales order for the receiving organization. The same for shipments, 
invoices and payments. These documents can also be sent via web services 
between completely separated OFBiz installations.


Anybody having experiences with this and want to share?

Hans


FIND Orders: Issue while searching with inventory id

2013-05-23 Thread Varun Kothari
Dear Ofbiz Community members,

I am seeing some unusual behavior in Ofbiz app. (11.04.02), related to 
FIND ORDERS functionality.

1) Go to order manager app
2) Go to FIND orders
3) Input some valid value of invenotry ID for which the order exists
4) Click on FIND button
5) The orders with inventory id on order, should have been shown 
regardless of status

but :
1) Only "Completed" status orders are shown for that particular inventory 
id. Other orders with different statuses could not be found.

While analyzing ofbiz code, we could see that the system is designed to 
behave like this. It is by mistake or any specific reason for this 
behavior.

Though if we search by soft identifier / serial no. on inventory, we could 
see the orders regardless of status but in certain cases we might not have 
serial no. as well as soft identifier. In such scenarios, i could not see 
the orders with specific inventory.

Please share your views on this. Shall we go ahead and change this search 
behavior in ofbiz ?



regards
Varun Kothari
