I personally like constraining things like this at a data model level whenever possible, but this is another valid approach, and the type of thing is supposed to be plenty with the ofbiz architecture as all updates should go through the low-level services...

Ok David, i changed the services a bit to ensure there is only one active record with the flag set at 'Y' Regards, Hans On Tue, 2008-01-08 at 00:11 -0700, David E Jones wrote:From a data modeling perspective this doesn't constrain having a single default rate type... perhaps it would be better to add a defaultRateTypeId field to the Person entity (would say Party, but I don't know if we'll need to bill for an entire organization... maybe so though... so maybe better on Party). -David On Jan 7, 2008, at 11:48 PM, Hans Bakker wrote:Hi David, it is not the point that another ratetype will help we already havethat. When employees however fill in their timesheet we have employeesthat are charged full rate because they are fully trained, and have employees who are in training and should be charged half. We indeed have a rate for full and for half. On the timesheet it would be very helpful that depending on the employee a default rateType is already filled in. That is where this default rate indicator is coming in. They can then still adjust it for overtime etc.. I am already using this in the weekly timesheet of the project manager.

Could you describe why this is needed instead of using another RateType (along with PartyRate)? -David On Jan 7, 2008, at 10:47 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:Author: hansbak Date: Mon Jan 7 21:47:02 2008 New Revision: 609878 URL: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?rev=609878&view=rev Log:add a indicator field to the partyRate table to indicate what is thedefault rate of a party, this is required for employees who are in training and for which a reduced rate is invoiced to the customer Modified: ofbiz/trunk/applications/party/webapp/partymgr/party/ PartyForms.xml ofbiz/trunk/applications/workeffort/entitydef/entitymodel.xml Modified: ofbiz/trunk/applications/party/webapp/partymgr/party/ PartyForms.xml URL: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/ofbiz/trunk/applications/party/webapp/partymgr/party/PartyForms.xml?rev=609878&r1=609877&r2=609878&view=diff = = = = = = = = = == = ==================================================================--- ofbiz/trunk/applications/party/webapp/partymgr/party/ PartyForms.xml (original) +++ ofbiz/trunk/applications/party/webapp/partymgr/party/ PartyForms.xml Mon Jan 7 21:47:02 2008 @@ -264,6 +264,12 @@ </entity-options> </drop-down> </field> + <field name="defaultRate"> + <drop-down no-current-selected-key="N"> + <option key="N"/> + <option key="Y"/> + </drop-down> + </field> <field name="submitButton" title="$ {uiLabelMap.CommonCreate}"><submit button-type="button"/></field> </form> Modified: ofbiz/trunk/applications/workeffort/entitydef/ entitymodel.xml URL: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/ofbiz/trunk/applications/workeffort/entitydef/entitymodel.xml?rev=609878&r1=609877&r2=609878&view=diff = = = = = = = = = == = ==================================================================--- ofbiz/trunk/applications/workeffort/entitydef/entitymodel.xml (original) +++ ofbiz/trunk/applications/workeffort/entitydef/entitymodel.xml Mon Jan 7 21:47:02 2008 @@ -46,6 +46,7 @@ title="Party Rate Entity"> <field name="partyId" type="id-ne"></field> <field name="rateTypeId" type="id-ne"></field> + <field name="defaultRate" type="indicator"></field> <field name="fromDate" type="date-time"></field> <field name="thruDate" type="date-time"></field> <field name="rate" type="currency-amount"></field>
