In our current system, I have noted a pattern of hierarchal inheritance with regards to gathering configuration information . In the simplest case, we add generic foreign key to the table containing the configuration and check the existence of records in order of a predetermined precedence. For example, to find a pay rate for work completed we check for the following objects in the rate table:
1. Contractor - the person being paid 2. WorkType - the reason the payment is being made 3. JobSite - the location making the payment 4. Client - the account it is being payed from These objects are not related except by business logic and the hierarchy varies depending on the setting being asked for. While code which using this data is simple, the administration has become incredibly difficult from a UI perspective. I was wondering if there are any apps out there which implement this kind of functionality with the associated admin pages/widgets before I go rolling my own. I have looked, but haven't been able to find anything that suits this situation. Thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
