inventory; difference between item and product

[Rene Pfluger]

Hello

I start to learn more and more about our OfBiz by getting ready to production.

Can anyone tell me the difference between item and product in the inventory? What is linked to the stock and e-commerce?

Many thanks for your help!

Hi Rene,

the best way to learn all these is from Data Model Resource Book vol. 1

http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBADMIN/OFBiz+Related+Books

https://ofbiz-vm.apache.org/catalog/control/EditProduct
is the product.
it you click on inventory that has to do with the inventory for the product.

if you want to see this from a data model the easiest is to get the
Datamodel book Vol I & II.

if you want to plow through this in ofbiz try using the webtools
https://ofbiz-vm.apache.org/webtools/control/entityref
gives you the references as well as the relationships
https://ofbiz-vm.apache.org/webtools/control/view/entityref_main#Product
https://ofbiz-vm.apache.org/webtools/control/view/entityref_main#InventoryItem

note you can replace
ofbiz-vm.apache.org
with
localhost:8443
