Anil,
How does that relate to my question on tying PO/SO to shipment and to
WorkEffort (production runs)?
Are you saying that there can be a tree of production runs, the upper nodes being dependent on the
lower leaves?
So, I would have the following production runs:
1. Production run to manufacture a bicycle frame
2. To paint bicycle frame
3. To assemble bicycle
Production run 3 will be top level, and will depend on production run 2, which will in turn
require 1 to be performed first?
Seems like an odd way to break up a production run. More convenient to have all 3 production runs
above be made routing tasks instead, routing tasks that all reside within a single production run.
I'd say the more user-friendly way, but more complex at coding level, is to have the
sub-contracted routing task (painting) automatically tie to a PO buying painting services.
Let me know if I understand you correctly?

Yesterday I applied a patch to Jira Issue for Deep copy of WorkEffort. Its
based on Idea of Create a Template WorkEffort (can have Assocs) , Then use
deep copy service to create instance of it. This deep copy service can be
extended to even copy POs associated with WorkEffort.
Any Ideas!

Chris,
I've confirmed that OFBiz doesn't do anything near as complicated as what
I described below (in
1st post in thread). (Even the routing task type of Sub-contracting
doesn't do anything?).
I'd like to ask the community for advice of "best practices" before I
submit an enhancement. How
would you usually go about:
1. Starting production run.
2. Task1: Produce some parts.
3. Task2: Ship parts to vendor for painting.
4. Task3: Assemble painted parts.
For Task2 (step 3 above), I'm proposing we have a PO for the painting
service, complete with a
link from PO to routing task, an outgoing shipment of pre-painted parts,
and an incoming shipment
of painted parts.
Has anyone done this yet (not merged into OFBiz)? Is it something that a
sizable majority of the
community would need? How would such a majority propose I do the above?
TIA for inputs!
