Tamer,
Yes, those diagrams are rather old. They were pretty manually created
and as far as I know no one has updated them.
However, currently OFBiz does support exporting entity definitions as
eomodeld files which can be imported using a few different software
packages (mostly Mac OS apps). As part of these exports (which can be
done from webtools) the entities are grouped according to logical
organization in smaller diagrams to avoid having one massive diagram.
I then used these with OmniGraffle to create some initial diagrams.
Some people at Hotwax Media then took these initial diagrams and added
color, applicable seed data to help describe entities, organize the
entities logically on each page to make them easier to understand and
find. For about the last year these have only been used by Hotwax
developers and various clients, but an "anonymous internal source" at
Hotwax tells me that these may soon be made openly available. Keep an
eye on the ofbiz mailing lists, I'll make sure an announcement makes
its way here when that happens.

Hi,
It seems "ofbiz.dev.java.net" site contains some documents in
addition to
the link to OFBiz web site.
They are not up to date, but especially "data model" drawings seems
to be
useful.
Is there somewhere updated versions of these documents?
Direct access URL to the data model documents is below:
