Jacques Le Roux commented on OFBIZ-5387:
----------------------------------------
>Should I still implement as a form widget by splitting into multiple fields?
I actually missed your point, I read OFBIZ-5396 and I now understand your
perspective. Yes, a temporary solution would be to use multiple fields.
But, you already have something working. And using multiple fields would
eventually needs to be improved, if we consider OFBIZ-5396 that I agree we
should. So I will review in detail and hopefully commit. We will change it
later to a widget form, once we will have hopefully tackled OFBIZ-5396 (and
OFBIZ-5356, which is unrelated here).
Of course the new feature which would be introduced with OFBIZ-5396 would have
to be used with caution, in dropdowns at least, less in lookups. In some
cases, due to primary keys combination, the number of options might be
overwhelming when seeking one of them, then better to split into multiple
fields.
To be logical, OFBIZ-5396 and OFBIZ-5356 should be done before OFBIZ-5040. But
because for now there would be only this case in backend, I consider we can go
this way for now. When/if I commit I will make a relation with OFBIZ-5396 to
not forget it...
Since there is a moot point here (multiple fields vs OFBIZ-5396 proposition),
Commiters, if you disagree, please explain why.

> OFBiz should be improved to allow shipment methods to be selected for a
> purchase order from a supplier. Currently optionsettings.ftl sets the
> shipping method as a hidden field with value "STANDARD@_NA" for purchase
> orders. I have the need to keep track of the shipping methods as well as due
> dates of purchase order items.
> The shipment methods will have to somehow be related back to the supplier.
> Currently the shipment methods are determined by those related to the store
> but no store is associated with a cart for purchase orders.
> Stores could be created for all suppliers specifically for associating
> carriers and shipment methods and the order creation form could be updated so
> that the supplier store is selected instead of the supplier party. The
> ProductStore payToPartyId field could be used to identify the supplier that
> is supposed to be associated with the store.
> Anyone else have some ideas?
