Jacques Le Roux commented on OFBIZ-3480:
----------------------------------------
from http://markmail.org/message/rgl2d43digc3rpcz I guess a patch would get
some interest
> party id cannot be specified through GUI while creating a Party (Person or
> Party Group)

> Key: OFBIZ-3480
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-3480
> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: party
> Affects Versions: SVN trunk
> Reporter: Babu Sreekanth
> Priority: Minor

> see the message in context:
> http://n4.nabble.com/Party-ID-during-creation-tt1554713.html#a1554713
> 1. While creating an organization, it is possible to specify a meaningful
> party id through ofbiz setup.
> 2. But, it is NOT possible to specify the party id through GUI while creating
> a Party (Person or Party Group). this means, all the parties created get a
> sequence id for party id.
> Bilgin Ibryam's replay is posted below.
> The PK field in party creation service is validated for special
> characters and so on. So the user is actually allowed to try with
> random text.
> I think this field is simply missing in the UI. That's why you are not
> "allowed" to enter the id.
> In addition to this, ofbiz display Ids in most of the forms ( and all
> the lookup fields). So it is very important to allow users to enter
> meaningful Ids, especially for data that it used for long period like
> partyId, facailityId, fixedAssetId, agreementId... So create forms
> should have an optional Id field (partyId, facilityId...) with a label
> saying that if an Id is not specified, the system will generate one.
