Hi, i am quite new to couchDB and trying to build a sales application.
I designed a document as product. One product consist of multiple sub-products that are unique to one product. Next i designed a sales document that consists of multiple products. The quantity of each sub-product can be chosen independent. When i know want to see the total sales quantity, i created a view that runs through all sales-docs and emits the sold quantity, with the product- and sub-product-number as keys. This way I am able to see the sold quantity by product and by sub-product with a reduce function. The problem i am facing is that it takes a long time to display an overview of all quantities. Did i maybe design something wrong and should take another approach? e.g. maybe I should create a doc for each sub-product instead of having them all in one product-doc? Would this be faster? I am really thankful for any advice, hint or comment. Regards Thomas
