Hi Pierre,
I can't see any reasons why a contact will show only if s/he have an email. Hence we would not need to make the email mandatory, it
could be blocking sometimes, ie when you have not (yet) the contact email...
Do you expect to contribute a patch for that?
Thanks

Hi Jacques,
Unfortunately anonymizing my set of data to use as a test in demo is on
short terms not viable. However creating contacts and leads through
quick-add is an easy method to reproduce the issues.
I created in backend demo's of trunk and 9.04 a lead and an account (Pierre
Smits). In the demo version of the trunk both the contact and the lead
doesn't show up. But in 9.04 they do.

Pierre

Hi all,
After having build a set of account and contact data and having it
uploaded
in OFBiz I noticed a few things
Sorting of accounts in the overview is based on de ID of the party and not
on the name of the party. The same goes for the contact. I haven't checked
the leads regarding this, but I assume it to be the same issue.
It seems to me that having these list sorted on name would be a better
solution. What do you think?
Agreed
The other thing is that after going through the stored data I noticed also
that Accounts and Contacts that don't have contactmech details aren't
shown
in the overviews although they are visible in Party Manager with correct
roles. I also noticed that when entering a new Contact through the
Quick-Add
option without an email adress doesn't show up in the contacts list
either.
My questions are:
Shouldn't Accounts and Contacts always show up in their designated SFA
overviews irrespect of having contact mech details or not?
Shouldn't the Quick-Add option not also have a manditory aspect for the
email address as well?
If your data are for test, could you please upload them to trunk demo to
allow a quick review?
TIA
Jacques
Regards,
Pierre
