Thanks a lot for the info. Before we go in details, can I get an example work flow demo from ofbiz 9.04 release?
I am able capture a request from customer for 'Request for a quote'. I want to assign this request to validate and approve by some other user. Calculate the price/cost Submit the quote to customer, etc. Could you please give me suggestion how to demonstrate this using ofbiz?
