there is usually one set of products.
then you can have some or all assigned to a catalog which is attached to
you products store. this will determine what is displayed on the website.
in each catalog you can have categories.
Now you can have a catalog that is not connected to a website, say for
each supplier and/or lines.
each of those catalogs refer to the same products, All or some.
Each of those catalogs can have their own categories, or share
categories in other catalogs.
you can also have catalogs that have suppliers/lines as they come from
the source but not part of the products that are for sale.
Still in All this, there is only one product (productID) entry in ofbiz.
hope that helps.

Hello,
I would want to manage product lines, in order to :
- type common texts into content management, related to a line
- use common features for a line
- ...
But into the e-commerce application, I don't display products ordered by line.
Have I to build others categories to represent product lines and associate
products to their supplier line ?
Thanks
Eric
