Re: Food nutrition database

[Paul Mandeltort]

You’ll want to use Features which already has units support built in. 

Add a broad feature Type for Nutrition
https://demo-trunk.ofbiz.apache.org/catalog/control/EditFeatureTypes 


And define the specific Nutrition things as features which live in Feature 
Categories:
 https://demo-trunk.ofbiz.apache.org/catalog/control/EditFeatureCategories 


Then you can manage specific features in the per-product features:

Food nutrition database

[wp . rauchholz]

Good day.

we want to use ofbiz for a food related business.
For tyhat we need to setup a database of ingredients and their nutritional 
properties.
Is this best done hrough the 'Attributes' in the item master or is there a 
better way?
Underneath an example of the data model for an apple.

Component Value UnitSource
Proximales  
alcohol (ethanol) 0 g   310
fat, total (total lipid)trace   g   258
protein, total  0.3 g   258
water (moisture)85.7g   258
Hidratos de Carbono 
carbohydrate12g 258
sucrose 2.4   g 341
fibre, total dietary2 g 258

Thanks, Wolfgang
