Are the physical stores using OFBiz for their POS system? If so then
it makes sense to have a ProductStore record for each, otherwise it
doesn't really make any sense at all... they would just be Facility
records.
If you have a Facility record for each location you can just use the
FacilityContactMech to go directly from the Facility to its address.

Hello David,
Thanks for considering my problem.
Yes Sure, I am talking about physical retail stores. A facility can
have different physical productstores (retailers) which are locating
at different places. My case is this, there are many retailers over
different places and having their respective owners. These retail
stores should be searched on the basis of postal code given of that
area, like "how many retail stores (belonging to a particular
facility) are available corresponding to given postal code". But I
could not find any attribute in ProductStore entity to serve my
purpose.
So, please tell me how I can associate ProductStores with their
different owners or postal address.

To start out... Are you talking about physical stores (like a
physical retail store), or are you talking about different
ecommerce stores that serve different parts of the world?
The main point is, you have to have the business case really solid
before you start doing any sort of design or gap analysis with
existing software. Without that, it's like a casual conversation
over dinner and you can't expect any rubber to hit the road.

Hello All,
Facility entity has its ownerPartyId. A facility can have
many ProductStores. I need to get postal address of the
ProductStore. I think Postal address can be got through
ContactMech, but that again would require PartyId. Is it possible
that different ProductStores have different ownerPartyIds, so that
I could have respective PostalAddresses for these productstores.
Productstore entity has payToPartyId and not any ownerPartyId.
Please suggest me, I want to locate productstores on the basis of
the postalcode given.
Thanks,
