> Improve configurability of OFBiz
> --------------------------------
>
> Key: OFBIZ-6164
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-6164
> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: ALL APPLICATIONS, ALL COMPONENTS
> Affects Versions: Trunk, Upcoming Branch
> Reporter: Pierre Smits
> Priority: Major
> Labels: configuration, multi-tenant
>
> The configuration of an OFBiz is determined by 2 aspects:
> # configuration settings required to successfully start the implementation
> # configuration settings required to have component functions work properly
> The latter involve default choices for various functions to cater to the
> usability of business processes (and therefore screen/forms and/or
> screens/templates.
> Several of these configuration settings are already loaded into the
> SystemProperty table in the underlying RDBMS, to enable adjustments of the
> systemPropertyValue while the implementation is in use. While it is not
> expected that these settings change often, it is possible that they are
> required to be changed during the lifespan of the company/organisation.
> However, it should not be required to go through a deployment process of
> regarding such changed configuration settings in the OFBiz production
> instance (which most - if not all - companies/organisations require when
> files are changes).
> Having all configuration settings of components in the SystemProperty table
> enhances the usability of OFBiz allowing system administrators to adjust the
> value(s) of system property records while the instance keeps running.
> Some examples of the latter kind of configuration settings expected to change
> during the lifespan of the company (and the production instance of OFBiz) are:
> {code:java}
> <SystemProperty systemResourceId="general"
> systemPropertyId="defaultFromEmailAddress"
> systemPropertyValue="[email protected]" description="general default
> 'fromEmailAddress' can be overridden in: EmailTemplateSetting"/>
> <SystemProperty systemResourceId="general"
> systemPropertyId="mail.notifications.enabled" systemPropertyValue="N"
> description="mail notifications enabled (Y|N)"/>
> <SystemProperty systemResourceId="general"
> systemPropertyId="mail.smtp.relay.host" description="the default mail server
> to use"/>
> <SystemProperty systemResourceId="general"
> systemPropertyId="mail.smtp.auth.user" description="SMTP Auth username
> setting"/>
> <SystemProperty systemResourceId="general"
> systemPropertyId="mail.smtp.auth.password" description="SMTP Auth password
> setting"/>
> {code}
>
> Furthermore, in a multi-tenancy OFBiz setup, configurations can differ per
> tenant.
> This is a placeholder issue to capture related issues to improve the
> configurability of OFBiz.
