Facility manager
Locked
 
|
Dear All,
I walked through the 'facility manager' and observed that it would be too many functions for my porposed inventory application. I would just need the following functions, I am trying to put together a POC for myself to get a hang on OFbiz. - create facility - create location - receive inventory - txfr inventory - receive return - Shipments - incoming - outgoing I have chosen OFbiz because my need has just started with 'inventory' and will continue to grow and will need other entities such as a Hr/payroll, Products configuration etc Please give your suggestion / best practice /approach / directions to get started. I am certain about developing it with OFbiz. Thanks. Regards, V.Sunder Anand |

What I would do, is modify what was there down to what I thought I
needed. At some point someone needed all that functionality, and you might as well. I would create a new management app called "My Facility", with just the UI that I wanted, and call the existing code. I would just mimick what was already working. This would not only give you what you want, but also provide an upgrade path. It would also allow you to trace into the code and see it all hangs together etc. On Dec 6, 2007 6:55 AM, V.

Thanks Jim,
I think I can do that, since I recently graduated from helloworld apps, I will trace the 'facility manager' pull it out and put it in hot-deploy dir. What I wonder is won't it break the app flow and dependencies if I pick&choose the menu out of order?.

Maybe you'll break stuff.. maybe not.. However, if your more
interested in learning ofbiz, what better way then to break it in new and unusual ways :) II would only pull out the UI. Leave everything else in place. You might end up hard coding values you don't have an interest in.

In reply to this post by v. sunder anand
You can also take a look at the applications in the specialpurpose folder. All of those are
derivatives of the main code base. They are good examples of how to build a custom UI on top of existing code. -Adrian v. sunder anand wrote: > Thanks Jim, > > I think I can do that, since I recently graduated from helloworld apps, I will trace the 'facility manager' pull it out and put it in hot-deploy dir. > > What I wonder is won't it break the app flow and dependencies if I pick&choose the menu out of order?.
