Greetings, all, About 2 years ago, I was looking hard at Ofbiz as an integrated inventory/pos/ecommerce solution for a specialty retail client. After struggling with the POS portion of Ofbiz for too long, I opted to go with Quasar instead. So, I have some familiarity with Ofbiz, but it is dated and I am not a current user. (Although, if the POS piece has gotten significantly easier to implement, I might give it another go.)
A recent project has come up for bid for which I suspect Ofbiz is a reasonable platform, but would appreciate some quick guidance. I need to show product information in a three-tier distribution model. i.e. Many manufacturers will list their products, several different distributors will identify which products from which manufacturers they carry in their warehouses, all so that many retailers can see A) what product exists, B) who carries it, and C) be able to import product information into their own POS/inventory system. Is this a reasonable project for which to use Ofbiz? If so, what are the appropriate bits of Ofbiz jargon I should know to get started? What I mean by this: is a the Manufacturer in this situation a Party, a Facility, or something different? Just looking for some basic big-picture relationships to get myself started.
