You are not a lone, and it is something I have found through my life. let me try again. The Attname in the postal address is not part of the Data model from the Books. I am working to add functionality to the Postal address http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBIZ/Extending+PostalAddress+Information when and if this is implemented in ofbiz Attnname will not be in the Postal address Entity. instead there will be a link to a Contact mech that has the persons name and the type ATTNNAME or some sort.
hope that is clearer. Pranay Pandey sent the following on 6/9/2009 2:53 AM: > As I am always finding myself unable to understand your comments, BJ. > Can you please rephrase your comments for me?
