Adam this is just to induce the entities from an external source.
yours is the next step once they are ready to beused.

You need to give your external datasource a group-name. Then in your external
entity definitions, assign the entities to that group.

Subject: Issues Creating Entities in Ofbiz from existing Schema
To: [email protected]
Date: Friday, October 29, 2010, 12:09 PM
I am trying to create a entities within OFbiz out of an
existing schema in production. Not sure if this is the best
way to create entties out of an existing schema. Suggestions
are welcomed!!
I tried to add a datasource tag in default delegator in
entity-engine.xml
Followed the instructions on
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/Handling+of+External+data
Would like to know where I am going wrong. On restart, I
realised that ofbiz does not finish to the point that I can
get webtools or even login for ecommerce. IT has just stuck
at soem point saying ServiceDispatcher.java 584 INFO
Sync service..
There is no exception or anything but OFbiz does not go
further with complete laoding. Anything I am doing wrong?
Being a default delegaotr, there was no special
entity-group.xml file in the ofbiz 9_04 code base. Hence I
did not bother to create an entity-group.xml file
My schema name is lronline, following are the entries I had
in entity-engine.xml
<delegator name="default" entity-model-reader="main"
entity-group-reader="main" entity-eca-reader="main"
distributed-cache-clear-enabled="false">
<group-map
group-name="org.ofbiz" datasource-name="localderby"/>
<group-map
group-name="org.ofbiz.olap"
datasource-name="localderbyolap"/>
<group-map
group-name="org.ofbiz" datasource-name="mysql"/>
</delegator>
<datasource name="mysql"
helper-class="org.ofbiz.entity.datasource.GenericHelperDAO"
