Jacques, Si,

I'm happy to.

BTW, I had way too many customers come into my store in the 3 days I've been opening asking if I can sell them a gift certificate, and some of them hammered me so hard I finally gave in and agreed I'd sort something out. I've committed to have something by 20 Dec, whether it's OFBiz or scraps of paper :-)

Soooo.....

Assume for the moment that getting "real" gift certificates working in the off-line scenario (ie, selling the GC over the counter, having the person receiving the GC coming in later t redeem over the counter, etc) might take a while.

Is it possible for me to "fake" the GC functionality? I've been keeping an eye on the current discussion about using BillingAccts as a PaymentMethod, and wonder if I can set that up to use OrderMgr to sell and redeem the GCs. Of course, I'd have to cobble together some deliverables, like a hardcopy "Gift Certificate" with the BillingAcct id and value, but that would be easy enough, even if I do it outside OFBiz.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Cheers, Iain

I have finally gone live with my (slightly) customised OFBiz in my retail bookshop business. Many thanks to all the people on the ofbiz-dev and ofbiz-user list for the help/advice/patches/etc that have enabled me to get going.

Generally everything has gone well, although I've had lots of customers asking if they can buy gift certificates. Unfortunately, since OFBiz can't them in a physical store environment I've had to disappoint them (and my bank manager :-)

Cheers, Iain


Iain,

Did you get my emails? I wanted to look at your patches for POS support in financials but haven't heard back from you.
Si
