Hey Jacopo. Thanks for drawing attention to the possibility of any
misunderstanding there.
Please read my statement again carefully.
I said IF David WAS able then I WOULD NOT have to. The logical corollary
of that is therefore that IF he is NOT able then I WOULD.
I said this clearly in as few words as possible and therefore find it
very hard to understand how there could be any justification for your
implications, your tone or your attack on my integrity and defamation of
my reputation and good name.

Ian,
does this mean that, after one million of email you sent to the OFBiz
lists - both complaining and promising to help the project - you will
just seat down and get the work that others did (in silence and
without publicly complaining)?

Great news. If you were able to do this at your company's expense
then I wouldn't have to do it at mine. Looking forward to reading
whatever you have as and when available.

We'll be doing something like this for our customer service and
shipping staff anyway -- I don't see a reason why we wouldn't be
able to contribute it to the community either when it's done or even
while it's in production.

David,
There's so much great documentation around I'm sure somebody must
have already answered those questions somewhere. Trouble is that
I'm just new to this myself and probably have less idea where to
look than you.
The only contribution I can make to this project at this stage is
to try to put together a simple, end-user's, step-by-step,
how-to-for-dummies kind of guide. I'm starting by looking for
people who I can 'interview' on the basics, then work up from there.
Your questions seem basic enough. Something most end users would
need to know. But the answers are several rungs further up the
ladder than where I am now. Chapter 5, perhaps, rather than Chapter 1.
I'm already in touch with several others who are prepared to help
with the more advanced stuff later on. If you'd be willing to help
get me started on Chapter 1, I could ask them if they would be
willing to help you with Chapter 5.
If you think this might be worth doing, please let me know.
Kind regards,
Ian

Is there a guide somewhere for end users that shows how to manage
orders, create, pay, ship, etc.? I am playing with it now and
seem to be running into many "nope, sorry, you can't do that"
problems. I must be doing something wrong. These are my
questions at the moment:
How do I mark an order as paid? (an order that's been shipped and
the customer invoiced)
How do I receive payment for a COD order?
How do I mark an order as paid with a check? (an order where the
customer is giving me the check at the time of sale, i.e. not an
invoiced order)
How do I create and order that is paid for with cash (or an
anonymous buyer?)
We sell on the web, and over the phone, and at trade shows, and we
have a retail counter, and we ship COD, and we have dealers who
buy during the month and pay for it all at the end of the month.
(*whew!*) So we deal with pretty much every payment situation
under the sun.
