This is very simple requirement and can be implemented in OFBiz easily. If you want to give access of uploading products to eBay to your merchant then their records (aka Party OOTB) must be present in the system. And then you can assign them certain permissions using partymgr component. If you assign permissions to manage all the operations in CatalogMgr to your merchants then your merchant can upload their product in OFBiz and then you can refer OOTB Ebay component, with the help of that component your each merchant can upload their product to Ebay.
In short: I would recommend you to play with Partymgr & Catalog components in the back office application and see how the roles are assigned to different parties. And then dig into Ebay component. Data Model Resource Book Volume 1 can be your best friend in the initial phase of exploration. http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/x/FoB2 Thanks! -- Ashish On Wed, Jan 27, 2010 at 12:54 AM, Patrick <[email protected]> wrote: > I see that I can upload products and catalogs via the catalog manager. > If I want multiple merchants to upload their own products, vaguely > analogous to ebay, is it correct to say that I need to extend the > catalog manager? or is that functionality already available?
