Quantity and Amount?
Locked
 
|
Hi,
I'm confused about something that I'm sure, it's simple. While I'm creating a sales order, using "quick lookup" - the table shows me the name of the product - a field named "quantity" and another field named "amount". Which is the difference between them? .../ordermgr/control/LookupBulkAddProducts?productId= thanks -- *Vanessa Vitor* Ao encaminhar esta mensagem, por favor : 1. Apague o meu e-mail e o meu nome. 2.

Quantity: to choose the number of product to order
Amount: to possibly fix an amount value for specific products like gift cards See https://demo-trunk.ofbiz.apache.org/catalog/control/EditProduct?productId=GC-001 Amout, Require Amount, Require the customer to enter an amount.

Hi Vanessa ,
For understanding purpose let consider you want to buy 5 pens , so 5 is the quantity while if each pen has a price of 10 Rs then its amount will be 10*5 Rs.

Sorry Ravindra,
But you are confusing 2 things, and related fields in Product Entity: Product.quantityIncluded and Product.fixedAmount IN OFBiz OOTB, quantityIncluded is used for bundles like you describe. When fixedAmount is used for financials or by and large products which require an Unit of Measure (see Product.amountUomTypeId), not a quantity. There is a good explanation there http://markmail.org/message/tvyghkw7rgq5bmqi So in this case you don't need to enter an amout. The quantity with the product price is enough to get the behaviour you describe. Alo you may notice that the DB field type is currency-amount. Its description is BTW <<Ue this for products which are sold in fixed denominations, such as gift certificates or calling cards.>> For code details, follow the called request, you will end at ShoppingCartHelper.addToCart(), exactly ShoppingCartHelper[192] in trunk HTH Jacques From: "Ravindra Mandre" <[hidden email]> > Hi Vanessa , > > For understanding purpose let consider you want to buy 5 pens , so 5 is the > quantity while if each pen has a price of 10 Rs then its amount will be > 10*5 Rs. > > HTH > > Ravi > > On Sat, Mar 3, 2012 at 4:07 PM, Jacques Le Roux < > [hidden email]> wrote: > >> Quantity: to choose the number of product to order >> Amount: to possibly fix an amount value for specific products like gift >> cards >> >> See https://demo-trunk.ofbiz.**apache.org/catalog/control/** >> EditProduct?productId=GC-001<https://demo-trunk.ofbiz.apache.org/catalog/control/EditProduct?productId=GC-001> >> Amout, Require Amount, Require the customer to enter an amount. >> >> Jacques >> >> >> Vanessa Vitor wrote: >> >>> Hi, >>> >>> I'm confused about something that I'm sure, it's simple. >>> >>> While I'm creating a sales order, using "quick lookup" - the table shows >>> me >>> the name of the product - a field named "quantity" and another field named >>> "amount".

Actually I must say the UI is confusing. It would not be too hard to improve it: ie makes the amout field disabled if the product
does not have "require amout" set (Product.requireAmount field = "Y") You could create a Jira for that, else I will do As always, help appreciated...
