Wai commented on OFBIZ-7112:
----------------------------
It was a long time ago since I did the patch. If memory serves, the reason the
data needed some modification was because the test was relying on the pre-patch
way of interpreting the entity and file-based property values. This was
causing the tests to fail. Hence, I had to explicitly specify property values
in the data.

> Ofbiz reads properties from either a properties file or the
> entity:SystemProperty. The way it works previously is that ofbiz reads from
> the entity:SystemProperty first and if there is no value associated with the
> target propertyname, it would then locate the value from the relevant
> properties file.
> In other words, if there is a database entry for a property, the database
> entry should override the associated properties file.
> The issue is that if a database entry exist but the value is empty, it would
> look for a value from the properties file. It should not do so. If a
> database entry exists for the propertyname of interest, the value should be
> taken from the database even if it holds an empty value.
