Jacopo, thanks for pointing this out! This should make the flexibility that
should be implemented must simpler to do (since the code is already there -
or close enough to copy and modify).
One of my hesitations with going for a more general solution is that this is
my first attempt at modifying OFBiz. I know I can implement my first
suggestion, but things are still fuzzy with the CustomMethod approach. I do
feel that this is the best way to go, though, so I'll invest some time in
designing a solution based on it and resubmit my plan.
Could someone point out an example of the usage of the CustomMethod logic?
Thanks,
Carl
