Thanks Rishi. I had looked at the revision association but my question is
more geared towards MRP and inventory situations.
for example, ProductA has rev 1 and rev2
ProductA - Revision association with -ProductA_rev1
ProductA - Revision association with -ProductA_rev2
ProductA_rev2 New Version, Replacement association with ProductA_rev1
TopProduct EBOM association with ProductA
If we want to run MRP on TOPProduct how will ProductA_rev1 or ProductA_rev2
inventory be considered ? Does that part also involve customization or
something is involved. I want to do customization only where it is
absolutely necessary without losing any OOTB functionality.
This is only a very basic example. Further ProductA may have equivalent
parts with revisions or refurbished equivalents with further conditions
where equivalents can or can not be used. Ofbiz has pretty strong
functionalty but I am pitting it against SAP ....The goal is to build a
configurable product with 2000+ parts for 8+ markets(with different
regulatory requirements etc) ......hence my motivation .........
Thanks and Regards,
Parminder Lehal
