[Pal Infocom Technologies-2]

 I want to add product category id into primaryProductCategoryId field.
i have added a select box  in the form that shows the product creation screen using following code:

<field name="productCategoryId" title="${uiLabelMap.ProductPrimaryCategory}" widget-style="selectBox">
            <drop-down allow-empty="true">
                <entity-options entity-name="ProductCategory"  description="${categoryName} [{productCategoryId}]">
                       <entity-order-by field-name="categoryName"/>
                </entity-options>
            </drop-down>
        </field>

and following line in simple method that create the product using map newEntity.
 <set field="newEntity.primaryProductCategoryId" from-field="parameters.productCategoryId"  />
it shows the values in select box but doesn't insert the selected value in the product. it returns null
where am i wrong?
please provide help..

Amit,

If I understood well, you have to commit the changes to the database:

<store-value value-name="newObject"> for updating
<create-value value-name="newObject"> for creating

PD: Please send this messages to the developers list

Greetings,

No, please *don't* send this type of message to the dev ML.

The dev ML is intended to *developing* OFBiz not to *use* it !

Thanks

ok, thanks for the clarification Jacques.

I made a erroneous technical/functional distinction between the MLs (I
even sent this kind of messages to the dev list some months ago)
