Hi,
I have a requirement where I need to create manufacturers which I can
insert as parties. Manufacturers can have zero or more brands. Each
brand can have zero or more products.
- Is brands supported in ofbiz ? I have checked the data model but not
able to find.
- If not what would be the best way to achieve this ?
IMO I should extend ofbiz data model and create a new brand table and
manufacturer-brand table.
Brand table would have all the brands and manufacturer-brand table would
have the manufacturer brand association.
Also extend the product table and include brandId as a drop-down.
Product has OEM Party ID(which I think is nothing but manufacturer) and
based on the OEM Party Id the brandId can be populated.
Any design pointers are much welcomed.
