Yes, Pierre, A vendor in ofbiz is not always used in the same manner. However i try to think about to create a marketplace and their i need the role of vendor. In ofbiz there can be connected one vendor per product. I have to extend that to more different vendors per product. But ofbiz doesn't foresee different prices of the same product offered by different vendors. So there i have to think about to modify the logic. I have to add a partyrole or party to the productprice entity. And modify the calculateprice service.
