Hi Rafael,
The isNexus attribute is a flag to say whether or not the Party has a sufficient presence in the area to warrant having to charge tax. From the accounting help, see
https://fisheye6.atlassian.com/browse/ofbiz/trunk/applications/accounting/data/helpdata/HELP_ACCOUNTING_ListTaxAuthorityParties.xml?hb=true#to57 'Nexus' is a term that refers to an agreement between
the tax authority and potential tax payer that the tax authority can
impose the tax. This is usually for Sales Tax. If you have a Sales
Tax that is uniformly applied to a product or range of products then
the 'Nexus' field can be set to 'Y'
I believe isNexus is not currently used in the OFBiz code. There are a number of areas where the data model has been quite thoroughly designed, and the code does not yet act on everything that is included in the data model. I think this is one of them.
The PartyIdentification entity is an entity for managing identification information for parties. A party may have multiple methods of identification, so there is a separate entity to manage that. Associated with PartyIdentification is another entity, PartyIdentificationType, which lists ways of identifying parties you wish to use.
The example data, see
https://demo-trunk.ofbiz.apache.org/webtools/control/FindGeneric?entityName=PartyIdentificationType&find=true&VIEW_SIZE=50&VIEW_INDEX=0has three entries to give you some examples of the possibilities:
a government-issued identification card
SIRET, a French way of identifying a business operating in a locality,
a Subversion login name, used in the Scrum component
There are services to look up a Party based on a PartyIdentification code.
You could easily add your own ways as well as or instead of the examples.
PartyTaxAuthInfo does not use PartyIdentification, although perhaps it should. PartyTaxAuthInfo has its own attribute partyTaxId. So if your purpose is to track the identification of a party for a tax authority, use PartyTaxAuthInfo, and not PartyIdentification.
To learn more about the OFBiz data model in general, get the books "The Data Model Resource Book" volume 1, 2 and 3, especially the first one. The OFBiz data model is not identical to that described in the books, but it was inspired by them and in general is quite similar. Links to more on these books and others about OFBiz can be found at

Hi Paul,
Thank you very much for your help
But I would like to know how to use the field isnexus.
In addition to using the table party_identification, what kind of
identication is recorded both for person and for organizations..
Regards,
Rafael
