Hi, ofbiz community!
I need some tips about best practices in creating forms (listing and
editing) for multiple entities. The context is the following. I use a
"clean" installation of ofbiz (don't use any features, entities or services
defined by applications and specialpurpose components). I defined two simple
entities: Product and Good. Good is a kind of Product and have a relation
(one) that maps its PK (Good.productId) to Product's PK (Product.productId).
Currently Good has only one field (its pk) and Product has other fields like
productName, supportDiscontinuationDate, etc.
Given these entities, I want to create forms for listing and editing
Goods. What is the best approach? Do I have to create a view-entity for the
listing form? And what about the editing form? I'm thinking about placing
all the fields (Good and Product fields) into a single form and invoke a
createGood (or updateGood) service that uses similar services to create and
update Products.
I use the framework's Example component as a reference to build my own
component. So, fell free to point some resources on that component and in
other components as well (I don't use applications and specialpurpose
components but their sources are available to me).
Thanks in advance,
Matheus Eduardo Machado Moreira
