Jim,

I appreciate your feedback. As much as I wish this what not the case,  
it is an unfortunate side-effect of the current nature and structure  
of OFBiz. There are a lot of active projects on it changing,  
improving, and fixing things in all different parts of the project,  
but the software is still very much in development and only certain  
limited parts are mature, and even those parts sometimes get  
contributions that cause problems...

So, as I mentioned before it is hard to use OFBiz right now unless  
you have people on staff or on contract that can help solve problems,  
and even without the problems that's often required to help  
effectively apply the software.

I think for many like you OFBiz is not ready for what you want. I'm  
sorry to hear that you don't have the resources to get it there for  
you, or perhaps the case is you found something which works better  
for your case, which of course happens and if so that's great.

-David
