Ofbiz ERP can be setup for clients with different verticals. The setup
feature added in this commit is giving ability to quickly setup store.
We can at some point add various forms of setup tools for different
types of uses of Ofbiz.
Also If I am not wrong, commonext component is place for stuff that is
common for all apps but is not qualified to go in framework component.
On contrary this component uses various component entities hence its
much better to place such components in specialpurpose folder.
If you don't mind HotWax Media can fund the effort of moving this
component to specialpurpose component.

As i explained to you it is normally (for the erp systems I know) part
of the core system and therefor i put it in the commonext component.
I also plan to put myportal there, or as david suggested in the
framework....i have however a problem with the registration which
contains references to party and communication event and therefore not
fit in the framework.

I appreciate you created this and for sure this will help.
I totally understand what you did.
My main question was to move this to specialpurpose folder.
Don't you think that specialpurpose is better place for such kind of
contribution?
Thanks!

Hi Ashish.
Most ERP systems have a system configurator which is essential for
system setup and initialization. It is part of the core system.
I do not know if you ever tried to setup an ofbiz system starting
from
seed data, that is pretty difficult.
With this component you can go with an empty system directly to a
customer and demonstrate an empty system. Load the seed data,
create an
admin user and setup the system with this webapp entering the
company
data, productstore, catalog, category and product. enter the first
customer and you can demonstrate the sale order entry, even the
glaccounts will be loaded from a external file and the invoice
will be
properly generated. This can be done in less then 5 minutes.
We are creating new documents and help screens to support this.
regards,
Hans

Hans,
Any specific reason for keeping this new component inside
"commonext"?
Shouldn't we keep it inside specialpurpose folder?

New Revision: 816083
URL: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?rev=816083&view=rev
Log:
added a 'setup' component to create a system from seed data
only. After the required data is created with this component it
is possible to enter a salesorder and quickship it and create an
invoice successfully. The 'setup' component will only show in
the tab selection if there is no accounting organization. Check
the ofbiz document for more info or look in the file
applications/commonext/documents/Setup.xml. Created and
sponsored by Antwebsystems. Programmed by employee Tukkata
