Well actually it looks like I was on the wrong track with this, the
article I cited was ambiguous or incorrect(or maybe I'm confused
-actually that's given). It looks like subscription entities keep
track of the time periods, but if auto-extended is set to Y a service
reorders and approves them at the end of the time period. Where the
subscription is an aspect of the product which does seem consistent
with ofbiz's overall design. The content & therefore fulfillment
service referenced needs to be defined in product content, not in the
Subscription Resource (which makes me wonder why it has a contentId
field), if this is the way it works, then no code needs to be added to
OrderServices.java & the little info available on the topic is all
incorrect. Even the demo data doesn't seem to have content attached
either to the product itself or the Subscription Resource, am
wondering if a working example just doesn't exist or if I'm
overlooking something...
