This sort of detail is very helpful. You are basically describing the
business process for the mall site and that is the most clear and
actionable way to communicate requirements.
Even based on just this it sounds like OFBiz will do most of what you
need. You can have products and inventory that are "drop shipped" and
the basic process for this is that when these items are ordered OFBiz
can automatically create purchase orders to suppliers with the
shipping address set to the customers shipping address.
Chances are you will still want some sort of variation on this, but it
sounds like this combined with various other features of the software
will get you most of the way there.

to keep accounting, and access separate, but have a single
interface for
the shipping department would take some customization.
it would also take an instance of ofbiz running for each store, the
way
I envision it.
there may be other ways, would have to get detailed requirements to
go
further.

I'm not sure it's about sub-companies, because they are independent
companies that have in commom a factory store in an specifc outlet
mall.
The
outlet mall team has a website and intends to create an e-commerce
website
to allow resellers to buy from the stores without coming to mall.

this has been answered before so let me take different approach.
The model was for A company and Sub-companies related to the
Company
Code can be written that allows this.
it is not 100% OOTB though.

Saudações,
I'd like to know how much Ofbiz could help me deploy an eletronic
outlet
mall. Resellers will login, add products from several diferent
factory
stores and checkout. Ofbiz should create one order for each
store and
the
eletronic outlet mall staf will receive all the goods from all the
stores,
pack it and mail it to the custommer. Revenue is based on
COMMISSIONS,
so
we'll not resale anything.
TIA,
Leonardo Ruoso
