there is the rub.
to have different catalogs assigned to different stores requires a different website, internal to ofbiz. now that can be under one Domain which is the Mall website. each store would be http://www.mallwebsite.br/store1 http://www.mallwebsite.br/store2 http://www.mallwebsite.br/store3 http://www.mallwebsite.br/store4 http://www.mallwebsite.br/store200 everything else is doable as you laid out. Each would have its own Facility for Stock. You can use inventory transfer to have one facility to do the shipping another scenario is you can have all the catalogs under one website and they select which one. this would have one theme, which to model after the real B&M Factory Outlet malls is not what they have. Each store has its own look & feel.

I should add that everyone would come to
http://www.mallwebsite.br/ where you could have links to go to http://www.mallwebsite.br/store1 the http://www.mallwebsite.br/ you would have the main site where you would have promos and highlights for each store(factory) This would be an extra feature that the factories can use to draw customers. Each site http://www.mallwebsite.br/store1 can have their own promos as well.

How the better way to find products?
How the better way to show all dresses from all factories; all shirts from selected factories; all products from one factory; all women jeans from all factories? How the better way to select products from several factories/suppliers, but have a single shopping cart and pay at once? 2009/7/17 BJ Freeman <[hidden email]> > there is the rub. > to have different catalogs assigned to different stores requires a > different website, internal to ofbiz. > now that can be under one Domain which is the Mall website. > each store would be > http://www.mallwebsite.br/store1 > http://www.mallwebsite.br/store2 > http://www.mallwebsite.br/store3 > http://www.mallwebsite.br/store4 > http://www.mallwebsite.br/store200 > everything else is doable as you laid out. > Each would have its own Facility for Stock. > You can use inventory transfer to have one facility to do the shipping > another scenario is you can have all the catalogs under one website and > they select which one. this would have one theme, which to model after > the real B&M Factory Outlet malls is not what they have.

You say: "this would have one theme, which to model after the real B&M

BJ,
2009/7/17 BJ Freeman <[hidden email]> > Where I find the problem is that these projects take more manhours than > people envisions. > At this time. Do you still think this project should take a lot of work to be done or what I've written in my last messages opened for one or two easier, more OOTB deployment? I'm really open to propose some changes to the project if this could reduce costs a lot. |

That's not quite true... you can change catalogs and stores on the fly. In fact, for the most part things are flexible enough that as-is or with small changes you can usually accommodate whatever is needed... -David On Jul 17, 2009, at 6:49 AM, BJ Freeman wrote: > there is the rub. > to have different catalogs assigned to different stores requires a > different website, internal to ofbiz. > now that can be under one Domain which is the Mall website. > each store would be > http://www.mallwebsite.br/store1 > http://www.mallwebsite.br/store2 > http://www.mallwebsite.br/store3 > http://www.mallwebsite.br/store4 > http://www.mallwebsite.br/store200 > everything else is doable as you laid out. > Each would have its own Facility for Stock. > You can use inventory transfer to have one facility to do the shipping > another scenario is you can have all the catalogs under one website > and > they select which one. this would have one theme, which to model after > the real B&M Factory Outlet malls is not what they have.
