Phone number as an Order Contact Mechanism

By default, does OFBiz allow the adding of a phone number as an Order
Contact Mechanism? If I manually insert a record to link the order to a
phone number, the "Find Order" screen renders it as I expected it to.
Sure, I could go thru Party, but for reporting purposes, it just makes
more sense to have the phone number as a form of contact for an order.
Thanks.

It can be both.

RE: Phone number as an Order Contact Mechanism

I guess what I'm asking is: How do I do it in the interface?

RE: Phone number as an Order Contact Mechanism

The impression that I get from your response is that you think I'm
trying to customize the app to do this. I want to know if this
functionality is available OOTB. Is there a config file to
enable/configure such functionality? How does the app decide which party
contact mechs to add as order contact mechs? Thanks.

sounds like you want a particular contact to be associated with a
particular order.
this is assuming someone logins in.
if you have multiple people that are from the same organization, then it
is best to have a party group for the organization then have a PartyID
for each that order.
this is the only OOTB type that would satisfy your requirement.

the phone number will be in the party linked to the order.
there is no way at this time to link to a specific phone number in a
party if they have more than one.
However you have Contact Purposes
https://demo.hotwaxmedia.com/partymgr/control/editcontactmech?partyId=DemoCustomer1&contactMechId=9020
that lets you determine which phone number to use.
