------------------------------------
Hi [~pierresmits],
{quote}Re aspect 1
Indeed, if the field is crucial in the adopter implementation, then your suggest solution can be applied by them in their update/migration scenarios.
{quote}
The proposed datamodel/entitydef/deprecated-entitymodel.xml file was meant to be commented out by new adopters who don't want to use deprecated fields.
{quote}Re aspect 2
Doing a find on the code base on trunk branched of the combined set of repos revealed multiple 'quantityUomId' field definitions in use, even more when including derivatives like weightUomId, lenghtUomId, etc.
{quote}
Beside *quantityUomId*, you implied there can be other uom like *weightUomId*, *lengthUomId* for *InvoiceItem* entity. Wouldn't it better to keep the existing *uomId* field as it can be used for quantity, weight or length depending on item?
> InvoiceItem: uomID is wrongly defined

> Affects Versions: Trunk
> Reporter: Pierre Smits
> Priority: Critical
> Labels: refactoring
> Time Spent: 10m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> Currently the InvoiceItem entity has the field uomId, per:
> {code:java}
> <field name="uomId" type="id"></field>
> {code}
> per the demo data this field is used to capture the currency of the invoice item. This is, however, wrong. The currency for invoice items is set in the invoice entity record (with field currencyUomId.
> The uomId in the invoice item is related to the quantity set, and must be correctly named: 'quantityUomId.
