All,
I'd like to find a way to build the following requirements into the standard
product / facility mechanisms of OFBiz:
* Inventory is not kept in the store, actually the stite is a reseller
platform (orders collected and forwarded to reseller who does all handling
includung shipping)
* Availability of Inventory is communicated nightly by the Product Supplier;
this is not figures of QoH but rather an info of type: {we have it; we won't
have it any more; will be available as of date}
I am currently slightly confused about the Product and Inventory data model
and how I should set flags on Product:
* Is it enough to Create an InventoryItem per product and set the 'statusId'
to a proper value? A nightly job would then check the status and change it?
How can I -- in this aproach -- reflect projected "available-again" dates?
* Is it required to go the InventoryItemDetail path and create a detail for
each availability-period of a product?
* How do I handle QoH? Can I just set to value 1 and switch off the
"requires QoH" flag on the Product? What would I then select as Inventory
Method?
Thanks for any hint !
Regards
Carsten
