    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-635?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12903145#action_12903145 ] 

BJ Freeman commented on OFBIZ-635:
----------------------------------

Davids MultiTentant uses the database to define the settings for the DB access.
I was thinking of doing something similar for entityengine.xml so it becomes seed data.
everyone starts off using derby for demo and loading the entityengine.xml into it own database.
then the setup config can access this to set the datasources and delegators.
the setup can test to validate the new db setup and then initialize the tables and seed data.
All without restarting ofbiz.
part of the setup would transfer the setup to the new database with the steps already done.
the setup program will then continue to add the custom data that the user needs to run ofbiz for his company.

so a developers focus would to be to create setup packages for different businesses.
these could be charged for.
