If it becomes feasible for us to implement OFBiz in some capacity
where I work, this is something I'd like to look into more closely.
The logic and data model is much better than our own app, but there is
no way a business can process a decent volume of orders with these
screens the way they are now.  My boss' conclusion: that OFBiz is not
meant for 'serious' work.  Should I manage to get the go ahead in any
case, I'd really like to discuss reworking that part of the UI, or
adding other paths through it that are more adept at handling higher
volumes.
