Re: Questions to speed up learning process.

[Pritam Kute]

Hello MONTAÑA,

Welcome to the OFBiz community, The answers to your questions are as
follows.

1) As per my experience with OFBiz. The most widely used database with
OFBiz is MySQL. If I want to choose between Postgres and Maria DB, I will
go with Postgres.
2) List of books you can refer can be found on OFBiz Wiki here.
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/OFBiz+Related+Books
3) There might be chances that a lot of people have individually created
plugins for OFBiz but official plugins are available here.
https://github.com/apache/ofbiz-plugins

Re: Does ofbiz generate an invoice after product is ordered and paid

[Pritam Kute]

The process which you explained will just create an order in the backend.
In order to generate the invoice, you will need to follow the fulfillment
process from the backend.

Re: How to create a new facility in Apache Ofbiz 17.12.05?

[Pritam Kute]

Which OFBiz version you are using? I can see that this issue is fixed on
trunk.

https://demo-trunk.ofbiz.apache.org/facility/control/FindFacility

You might be interested to look into the following JIRA ticket.

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-10501

Re: Communication_Event table and Create new Customer

[Pritam Kute]

Hello Emad,

In OOTB flow, after creating a customer, the system calls
sendCreatePartyEmailNotification service asynchronously. This service is
called to send an email notification to the customer about account
creation. This causes the creation of a record in CommunicationEvent table.

I feel that sending email should be configurable but an initial cursory
look at the codebase doesn't guarantee about it. Also, one thing to notice
is that the CommunicationEvent created has a record with partyIdFrom as
FrenchCustomer which is completely wrong as it should be a company party.
The logic in createCommEventFromEmail (line no. 776) to find out "fromCm"
is what causing this problem. Any pointers from other community members to
this will help.

Re: Installation on cPanel server

[Pritam Kute]

Hello Kim,

Unfortunately, I do not have any experience installing Apache OFBiz on
cPanel servers.

If you have your dedicated physical server at the data centre then you can
directly install OFBiz on that server without applying WHM and cPanel to
it. For that, you can refer documents at the following link:

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/Apache+OFBiz+Technical+Production+Setup+Guide

The cost of the AWS server varies based on the configuration of the machine
you choose. You can learn more about AWS services at aws.amazon.com

Re: Installation on cPanel server

Hello Ki,

IMO, you should explore the opportunity to use plain OS based servers
instead of using cPanel. I would recommend you to try AWS servers for
Apache OFBiz installation.

Hello Giulio,

This is really a strange issue. Can you answer the following questions to
get to know more about the issue?

Have you made any customizations in the SequenceUtil class?
Is this issue happening for your first order in the system?
Have you checked if by mistake you have loaded some demo data into the
system?

Re: What technology do you choose for Party data model?

[Pritam Kute]

Hello Xinhuan,

Happy to see that you choose Apache OFBiz for your business needs. Based on
the overall outline of the business you are thinking of, the OFBiz has OOTB
capabilities to fulfil all your requirements.

The question about party data model is little unclear to me but I will
recommend you to go with MySQL database for storing the data. MySQL
integration is seamless with Apache OFBiz and a lot of live projects on top
of Apache OFBiz are using MySQL from years.

Re: Why creating a user login for a new customer

[Pritam Kute]

Hello Emad,

The idea is that if the customer wants him to register on the website means
the customer will return to the website for further processing like
tracking the order, checking order details or order history etc. It is good
to have customer logged in to fetch all this data. That's why username and
password are compulsory in the registration process. If the customer
doesn't want to track all the above data, the customer has an option to do
anonymous checkout.

Also, the need of asking for username and password while doing registration
of the user can vary based on case to case. If you can share the screens in
the context of your questions that will be better for answering your
question.

Re: Complete set of Demo Data

[Pritam Kute]

Hello Emad,

To answer your question, yes, all entities are not used in actual OFBiz
implementations but they are kept there to allow the developers to add
custom logic without the need of creating new entities as much as possible.
This is the beauty of the data model that is shipped OOTB with OFBiz.

Attribute entities in general data modelling terms are used to define the
property of an object or an element. The same is the use of Attribute
entity in the OFBiz. So, here, you can define the custom
properties/features of the party which cannot be modelled (ethically :)) in
other entities, they are put into PartyAttribute entity. You can find
Attribute entity in each data model in OFBiz such as OrderAttribute,
ProductAttribute, PartyAttribute etc. PartyTypeAttr is used in
conjunction with PartyAttribute to restrict PartyAttrubutes for based on
partyTypeId.

PartyClassification and PartyClassificationGroup entities are mostly used
in custom logics to classify the parties in groups. We can take an example
of a website which asks the user about the genre of music user likes. We
can add PartyClassificationGroups as an individual genre of music and
relate the party with the genre they like in PartyClassification entity.

Hope this helps.

Re: OFBiz Definition

[Pritam Kute]

Hello Vinu,

I am not sure what level of support you are expecting from the OFBiz OOTB.
Here is one document which explains the basic idea of OFBiz CRM. It is not
a complete guide but you will get the idea from here.

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/Customer+Relationship+Management+%28CRM%29+Process+Overview

As defined on the website, OFBiz is a suite of business applications
flexible enough to be used across any industry. The underlying data model
and service layer support almost every business logic, definitely, at the
cost of minor customizations as per the business needs. I have seen people
are using Apache OFBiz in a wide variety of domains like OMS, WMS,
Accounting, CRM, PM, Manufacturing, etc.

It will be good if you can list out what all features you are expecting out
of the system.

Re: OFBiz Integrations

[Pritam Kute]

Thanks, Rishi for sharing this.

We have already started work on moving all custom integrations as a
separate plugin from the framework component. Alongside we will be working
on checking if the integrations are updated and working as expected. I feel
that this will be a good step to add a page on confluence which will become
a single point of reference for all available integrations in the Apache
OFBiz.

Re: Initiate a refund on order line cancel

[Pritam Kute]

Hello Madhi,

Direct sale transactions mean the payments are already settled at the
payment gateway so you need to refund the payment to the customer. The
release payment will not work in that case.

I will need some time to look into code for commenting on the impact on
OFBiz flow. In general understanding, I don't think it will have any
adverse effects on OFBiz flow as this is the recommended workflow.

Re: Initiate a refund on order line cancel

[Pritam Kute]

Hello Madhi,

The way you have implemented the payment gateway is completely fine. The
payment status thing also looks good to me. It all depends on how you have
requested a payment gateway to process the transaction. Some payment
gateways do direct sale transactions means the amount is debited from
the customer's card once the transaction is successful. Another way is to
authorize the amount in which payment gateway only authorizes the amount on
the customer's card when order is placed into the system. It is not charged
on the card yet. Once the order is approved or completed in the system, the
system should send another request to the payment gateway to capture the
transaction. This time the amount is actually charged on the customer's
card.

So if you have requested a direct sale transaction to PayTM, I will
recommend you use a "refundPayment" service at the time of cancellation or
edits in the order.

Kind Regards,

Re: Initiate a refund on order line cancel

[Pritam Kute]

Hello Madhi,

I believe in general eCommerce workflow, an order cannot be canceled when
it is shipped or completed. It should always be returned.

If payment is received for the order, it means order is completed in OFBiz.
So in that case, you should create a return instead of canceling the order.

I think there is some confusion in the process which you are following. Can
you provide some steps in your system how you are processing the
fulfillment?

Re: Initiate a refund on order line cancel

[Pritam Kute]

Hello Madhi,

Happy to know that it helped you.

In payment integration, the process to get payment done depends on lots of
things like rules in-country, the payment gateway which you are using, etc.

In OFBiz OOTB, the expected payment cycle should be like
1. Payment authorisation when order is placed into the system by the user.
2. If an order gets cancelled, payment authorisation is released
3. If an order is edited, payment is released and re-authorised.
3. If an order is approved/completed in the system, it captures the amount.
4. If an order is returned after fulfilment, the payment is refunded.

For direct sale transaction, your payment is already settled/captured in
the gateway. So using releaseOrderPayment is not recommended. You should
use refundPayment instead. releaseOrderPayment should only be used when the
payment is in authorised status, not captured/received.

Kind Regards,

Re: Initiate a refund on order line cancel

[Pritam Kute]

Hello Madhi,

Now based on the logs which you have shared, I suspect either
orderPaymentPreferenceId passed to the custom service is wrong or the
orderPaymentPreference status is not PAYMENT_AUTHORISED. I hope you have
done payment authorization while placing the order. If you have done a
direct sale transaction, then this might not work.

Kind Regards,

Re: Initiate a refund on order line cancel

[Pritam Kute]

Hello Madhi,

Not sure but can you check if you have associated your custom method with
the right ProductStorePaymentSetting?



You can either put your payment gateway service name in paymentService of
the custom method ID in paymentCustomMethodId field.

It will be good if you can post the error log here if this is not a case.

Re: Edit Order

[Pritam Kute]

Hello Shrilesh,

When I had last checked this workflow, it cancels the current
OrderPaymentPreference and then creates new with updated order total. Also,
it invokes the payment service to recapture the payment. The service which
gets invoked to process payments is OrderServices.processOrderPayments. You
can refer to this service to get more understanding of the overall payment
workflow. Mostly the services which run in edit order workflow are
updateOrderItems or appendOrderItem. You can refer to those services too.
This workflow works well with the default payment processors in OFBiz.

One question really bothers me when I see this workflow is how we can
reAuth the payment on customer's cards without CVV or customer's consent? I
had faced the same problem in the reAuth process when I was working on
integration with the First Data payment gateway. They are now allowing
users to reAuth payment until and unless the user has CVV. Storing the
cards sensitive information like CVV is against the PCI DSS compliance. So
I would also be interested in more thoughts on this from the community
about how they handle the payment related situations in order edit
functionality.

Kind Regards,

Re: System Set Up - Data Upload

[Pritam Kute]

Hello James,

For directly uploading data to the database, you can use the XML data
uploader tool at the backend.

https://localhost:8443/webtools/control/EntityImport

You need to prepare data in XML format and then upload it using this tool.
For preparing XML data files, you can refer to demo data files in OFBiz.

Re: Business case: Use explodeOrderItems OOTB utility

[Pritam Kute]

Hello Suraj,

This will be surely a good architecture for the businesses who route
shipments from different locations and allow partial returns etc. As far as
I remember, there is one flag at the product store level with the name
"explodeOrderItems". When we set this flag to "Y", the system explodes
order items and create a separate order item data for multi-quantity items
in the order. I haven't tested it thoroughly but it works quite well on the
trunk code.

Let's have others to comment on this. Also, let me know if you have already
tested this flow.

Re: Rental

[Pritam Kute]

Hello James,

AFAIK, there is no direct support available in OFBiz which will help you
set up the exact requirement you mentioned.

You can refer to the Rental Store in OFBiz[1]. This is an example of a
hotel reservation system that is not exactly as per your requirement but it
can help you get basic idea.

Re: Configurable Option NOT Tied to a component

[Pritam Kute]

Hello james,

I don't think there is direct support available to create configurable
options without associating product to it. The data model allows it but at
the code level, when you order the configurable product by selecting
certain options, it will look for the associated product in the system.

In your email, species of a door, jam size, left or right entry, looks like
they are the feature of the door. Can you let us know other configuration
options for your product?

Re: Two same type of promotion applying on the cart

[Pritam Kute]

IMO It's a little bit tricky actually. It all depends on how the promotion
manager creates promotions in the system. But agreed with Suraj that only
one promotion with a maximum discount should be applied per cart.

Again we can provide the user with an option to choose from the list of
applicable promotions which he wants to apply on the cart.

Re: Configurable Digital Good

[Pritam Kute]

Hello Shrilesh,

I believe by doing little customizations to the OOTB, you can achieve the
variable subscription duration in subscription product model itself as per
the line in the document shared by Jacques.

"If you want a customer to pay for a long period up front, you would just
configure a Product for that. If you want the customer to pay monthly, but
sign up for a longer period of time (like a year) then you would have a
Product setup for 1 month of access, and create a ShoppingList for a
recurring Order to happen once a month for 12 months."

Provided there is no further complexity in pricing (variable pricing for
different subscription duration) or fulfillment of the order.

Kind Regards,

Re: Configurable Digital Good

[Pritam Kute]

Hello Shrilesh,

IMO there should not be any problem in associating digital products as
options to the configurable product. Can you please share more details like
example product and its options so that you will get better support?

Hello Joe,

You should try following the OFBiz tutorial[1] which can help you get the
better idea about the handling views and data preparation logics etc.

Re: Marketing Package

[Pritam Kute]

There is no any OOTB product type which can serve your purpose. You will
need a custom implementation to achieve that.

I can't able to find any practical product example with such a requirement.
Can you please share one example so that anyone here can understand it and
provide you a better solution?

Re: Product Type

[Pritam Kute]

Hello James,

Right now there is no OOTB support available for this type of product. You
can do customization to show all associated/bundled products of the
marketing package on the order page.

Re: I cannot start ofbiz on my laptop (localhost)

[Pritam Kute]

Hello Jondon,

Yes, OFBiz has embedded tomcat  So no need to install an Apache server. You
just need to check out the code, load the data and start using it.

As said by Nges, the URL you have mentioned in the wrong if you haven't
altered any port configuration settings in your setup or gradle command.
Please try to use the following URL:

https://localhost:8443/accounting/control/main

I have tested it on trunk and version 16. It works well for me.

Hope this helps.

Re: Maximum order quantity of a product

[Pritam Kute]

Hello Deepak,

As far as I know, there is no direct support available in OFBiz for your
requirement. But it would be a good addition to the codebase if we can
design full features around quantity rules, in a similar fashion as "Price
Rules".

There can be the multiple cases around quantity which we can handle such as
1. Min/Max product quantity to be ordered.
2. Rule-based product quantity handling such as based on already added
products in the cart.

Just a thought!

Thanks and Regards

Hi James,

You can associate commission parties with Order using an "OrderRole" entity
using appropriate "roleTypeId".

Re: Commissions with Two Reps On the Same Order - Brainpower Needed!

[Pritam Kute]

Hello James,

After looking into the requirements you have provided, IMO, this support
would not be directly available OOTB. You would need to do some
code customizations.

IMO, the best possible design can be using party agreements as the
commission % looks like a fixed one. You can create an agreement between
the company party and the commission parties. At the time of placing the
order, you should associate all the commission parties with the order.
After placing the order into the system, you can have a custom code logic
to calculate the commission and create the commission/purchase invoices
accordingly.

Hope this helps.

Thanks and Regards

Re: Catlogs

[Pritam Kute]

Hi Yokesh,

Both the promotions can be easily doable using promotion codes. You can
create the promotion codes and send it to the customer's email address.
While creating promotion codes, you can take advantage of fromDate and
thruDate fields to fulfill the redemption criteria.

Hope this helps.

Re: Uploading and viewing documents of party

[Pritam Kute]

Hello Sameer,

Please follow the steps:
1. Go to the party profile screen on ecommerce site. [1]
(User/Pass are DemoCustomer/ofbiz)
2. Scroll down to find "File Manager" section.
3. Click on "Upload New File" button. (Currently, there is a UI bug. It is
not showing the button properly. Also after selecting the file from your
computer, it will not show the selected file name. It will still show no
files. :) We can report this issue separately. )
4. Select the file from the File Manager pop-up which you want to upload. I
have tested the flow with PDF file.
5. Select purpose as "User Defined Content" and mime-type as "Adobe
Portable Document Format (PDF)".
6. Click on upload. It will upload a file to the server and reload the
party profile screen.
7. Now you should able to see the uploaded content and view/remove buttons
in front of it. Click on view button, it will show the PDF which you have
uploaded in previous steps.

Note: I have tested this workflow on Google Chrome. Let me know if you are
using any another browser.

Hello Sameer,

Can you tell more about OFBiz release you are using? I have tested the

Re: What is the better way to reserve inventory for the item?

[Pritam Kute]

Hello Rahul,

I have tested the workflow on trunk and it is working fine for me. Can you
share the details of the OFBiz version which you are using?

Are you trying with OFBiz demo data or any custom data?

Thanks and Regards

Re: Product Configuration

Hello Yokesh,

You can take reference of the "Configurable PC" product on the e-commerce
website. [1]

For the data, you can refer plugins/ecommerce/data/DemoConfigurator.xml
file.

Re: Supplier mapping for a product

[Pritam Kute]

Hi Yokesh,

You can associate product suppliers from the following screen [1]

There is no any UI available on the OFBiz e-commerce OOTB, for now, to
display all suppliers available for the particular product and allow the
user to select the supplier. You can think of customization for this case.
Currently, the OOTB support of associating the suppliers to the product is
just for procurement purpose only.

Hope this helps.

Re: Order image

[Pritam Kute]

Hello,

I think the purpose mentioned by Devanshu is perfect. But there is no any
reference found in the OFBiz codebase where I can associate the order
content with content type Id "IMAGE_URL" with the order.

IMO, this can be a very useful use case in spectacle manufacturing industry
where the users can upload the pictures of their prescription while placing
the order. Then backend staff can access the prescription image from this
link when the manufacturing process is initiated.

Hello Madhi Krishnan,

In addition to the reply from Aditya, if you don't want to add the
ContactMechPurpose data, you just need to create the ContactMech record
with ContactMechTypeId "EMAIL_ADDRESS" or "ELECTRONIC_ADDRESS" and
associate it with the party using PartyContactMech entity.

Re: E-Commerce

[Pritam Kute]

Hi Shrilesh,

According to the above discussions, I guess you need to implement faceted
search which is nowadays more
popular on the e-commerce sites. [1]

The integration of the Apache Solr in OFBIz is at a very basic level for
now. So, I recommend you to write a custom implementation
for integrating stand-alone Apache Solr and achieving the results you want.
I suggest you
go through the documentation of Apache Solr for digging up more into it. [2]

Hope this helps you.

Re: E-Commerce

[Pritam Kute]

Hi Shrilesh,

Product filtering is not supported OOTB on e-commerce for now. You need to
customize the solution.
You can use Apache Solr for enhancing the search capabilities. You can use
stand-alone Apache Solr server for this. Currently, the work is in progress
to
integrate Apache Solr in embedded mode in Apache OFBiz. [1]

Re: Creating product packs

[Pritam Kute]

Hi,

As I said in my previous email, it is just a UI layer problem. There is no
out of the box UI available on e-commerce for displaying the components of
the kit product. You need a little bit of customization in the code for
displaying those components on the product details page.

Re: Creating product packs

[Pritam Kute]

Whatever I can learn from the explanation you have provided, it is just a
UI layer you are talking about. Like you just need to show individual
servings to the customer under a particular product pack. There is no any
requirement of modifying/deleting of any servings.

If this is the case, then the marketing package can be exploded using the
associations created in "ProductAssoc" entity. I recommend you to go
through the demo data of GZ-BASKET. It will clear all your questions.

Re: Creating product packs

[Pritam Kute]

IMO, product PIZZA can give a good idea about configurable product setup
into the system. For marketing package, you can refer following products

GZ-BASKET [1]
GZ-BASKET-PICK [2]

[1] :
https://demo-trunk-ofbiz.apache.org/catalog/control/EditProduct?productId=GZ-BASKET
[2] :

Yes. This is a best case for Marketing Package. See the defination of
marketing package here
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBENDUSER/Products

The price is set for the pack, but the Customer should have the possibility

Price can be set for the complete set in marketing package type product.
Can you please ellaborate more about the line "open the pack and see what
is inside". Like do they just need to see the package content or they can
change some packs from the already built package?


> The pack is either defined or can be configured.

IMO, defined pakages can be created by using marketing package concept
directly but for configured package, you should go for configurable product
setup.

Hi Vinod,

Generally, logs can be seen on the OFBiz console. If not, you can go to

Please make sure proper log configurations are done at webtools -> View

Hello Madhi,

Which settings you have used? Gmail settings or your personal SMTP server
setup?

Re: How to send and receive email in ofbiz

[Pritam Kute]

Hello Madhi,

You can use your Gmail account for sending emails in the OFBiz.

Here you need to add following properties to your system.











If you are going to run your custom SMTP server on the same machine where
OFBiz is running, then you need some different settings.






Hope this helps you. Please let me know if you are facing any difficulties.

Thanks and Regards

Re: OFBiz OutOfMemory and stucked JobPoller issue

[Pritam Kute]

We had faced the similar issue in one of the custom project. Our server
memory was getting full after some time when we restart the server and it
was causing the server to not to respond to web requests. Also, we faced
the issue with job poller not picking the new jobs for execution. We have
executed the following steps and now the server is very stable.
  -- Followed the sync-async architecture as mentioned Arun
  -- Disabled the server-hit and visits as it was not used in the system
  -- Analysed the code level issues using thread dumps and fixed the code
sections.

Thanks and Regards

Re: creating new facility in Ofbiz

[Pritam Kute]

Hi Rajesh,

There is an option available to add the new facility. Go to "Application" >
"Facility" and select any available facility. Click on Submit button. It
will open the detail screen of the facility. On this screen, you will get
the button to "Create New Facility".

Improvement can be done over here by adding the "Create New Facility"
button on Facility Selection screen itself instead of overview screen.
