[OFBiz] Users - FW: Product Entity Question

[cjhowe]

Geoff,
I believe you would want to put that information in
the product -> attribute page.  To bring it up on the
product detail page, you would want to populate it on
the
component://order/webapp/ordermgr/WEB-INF/actions/entry/catalog/productdetail.bsh
page.  Then you would want to edit the
productdetail.ftl to put the information where you
want it.

Hello,
 
I was hoping someone could help me to add 2 fields to
a product. I would like to add the field coverage area
which is a numeric field and a UOM field that gives
the UOM for the coverage area.
 
These fields should only be present for products in a
certain category and any subcategories of the
category. I want them to appear on the main edit
product page, where they can be administered. I would
also like for them to appear on the product detail
page below the price info etc.
 
Can anyone point me in the right direction for info on
how to do this? Am I approaching this the correct way?
I am trying to model a box of hardwood flooring, that
covers a certain sq footage. I have made the
Manufacturers of the hardwood the categories. Some
manufacturers provide this data and
others do not.
 
Thanks for any help you can offer.
 
Geoff

Chris,

I appreciate your reply. So I should enter the name of the attribute (ie Coverage Area), the value (ie 20.5), and for type I should enter the unit of measure?? I would think that the type would be a combo box. I looked through all the docs and can't find too much detail on attributes.

Thanks again,

Geoff

Attributes are kind of free form.  You can use them for whatever you
need them for.  They help reduce the need of adding all sorts of fields
to Product.

Or, you can just add a few fields to product yourself and maintain them
in your own installation, if that works better for your needs.
