Parent Company Functionality

[ja...@productive1.com]

I would like to better understand the role functionality in Ofbiz as it
relates to Parent Companies

I have several customers in Ofbiz who order product under their own
account.  We also have their Parent Company who is responsible for all
of their child accounts Accounts Receivable.  Even though the child
accounts can place orders ...all Accounts Receivable needs to reside
under the Parent Account.  How would this be cnfigured in Ofbiz?

Thanks,

James

Dear James,
Please take a look at the PartyRelationship Data Model. Check the Internal
Organization role and party relationship types to better understand the
relationship among different parties.
In your case, you have organization as customer or purchaser, and its sub
organization may place the order. Ultimately, the order will be placed by
employee of the organization and/or sub organization. PartyRelationship
resolves this complexity as mentioned initially.

HTH!
