There won't be any harm, only thing is as Scott said you will be adding unnecessary complexity.
The flow makes use of order status to perform some actions, here you will be adding a custom status for same order status types, so you will have to make changes in the flow wherever the order status is being used to make use of your custom status. Easy way out of this would be, if you are only bothered about displaying the custom status message, is to customise the code where the order list is displayed in order manager to check if its a COD / CC order and display you custom status message accordingly. - Abdullah On Fri, Jan 29, 2010 at 11:20 AM, Ramkrishna Swamy < [email protected]> wrote: > Hi Scott, > > What could be possible harm if i do so, i don't have much knowledge of > OFBiz > and since it's my client's requirement so i have to follow. > > -- > Thanks > Ramkrishna > > On Fri, Jan 29, 2010 at 11:04 AM, Scott Gray <[email protected] > >wrote: > > > I would seriously consider why the same status has to have a different > > description depending on the payment method type.
