Pierre Smits commented on OFBIZ-5704:
-------------------------------------
I recommend that we do not make it more complicated than it should be.
Lots or batches will never have more than 1 party who is ultimately responsible for it with respect to product liability, and that is the party that manufactured c.q. produced it.. And for external goods that is the manufacturer/supplier, and not the agent, distributor, vendor, etc. And for internal and inter company goods that is a party group with the role 'INTERNAL_ORGANIZATIO'.
> Extend lot entity to include party Id of manufacturer

> Key: OFBIZ-5704
> URL:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-5704> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: manufacturing, product, workeffort
> Affects Versions: Release Branch 13.07, Release Branch 12.04, Release Branch 11.04, Trunk
> Reporter: Pierre Smits
> Attachments: OFBiz-5704-Product-EntityModel-Lot.patch

>
> Rationale
> Lot or batch management affects two places, namely the outbound process (and its functionalities) and inbound.
> It is possible that multiple parties have the same ID for the batch or the lot. Howver, in current feature set there is no discrimination between lots from supplier A, supplier B, or even the primary (internal) company in OFBiz.
> Therefore the entity 'Lot' should be extended with another key, namely that of the partyId of the manufacturer (or supplier).
