Quantity discount pricing
Can someone tell me how to implement quantity price breaks? I somehow
thought there a "minOrderQuantity" field and "QTY_DISCOUNT_PRICE", and
"QTY_DISCOUNT_PERCENTAGE" productPriceTypeIds, in ProductPrice, but I can't
seem to find them now.
I am looking in PriceServices.java and there seems to be some support for
quantity breaks using ProductPriceRule, but because
"optimizeForLargeRuleSet" is hardcoded "false" with no way to change it, it
looks to me like it will be impossibly slow because EVERY product for the
current customer has two price breaks (thats a total of 140,000+ price rules
to sort through).
Can someone offer guidance or should I modify ProductPrice to suite my needs
and hope that you guys will roll it back in.

They are not random. Mostly like < 10 = list, 10 - 50 = price y, 51+ = price
z, and then a few odd balls. However, I am betting that the resulting price
breaks are based on an underlying percentage. I am importing price1 - 3,
and qty1 - qty3.
List, y and z vary greatly from one product to the next.
Too bad it's not a fixed percentage, that would be pretty easy.
More importantly, I have to import these prices into Ofbiz along with my
inventory import, so it would be helpful to know the entities involved.
I was thinking of adding a fromQty and thruQty to PriceRule. That would
make it dead simple. Alternatively, I could add a QuantityBreak entity
similiar to page 88 of the Data Model Resource Book, but it seems sensless
to create a whole new entity when two fields in ProductPrice would do it.

I'm guessing Price Rules could work. Are the quantity breaks random, or is
logical? I mean 1-5qty Full Price, 6-9qty 10% off, 10 or more 15% off?
Or is it more insane like productId A is 1-5, productId B is 1-3? Z 1-500?
Even if appears random, is there some sort of pattern from which you could
create groups (Product Classifications)?
Product Classifications can be your friend. We have thousands of Product
Classifications, yet only a handful of price rules.
In case you didn't realize it price rules add together, and you may have to
create offseting rules to get the price where you want it.

For those of you who are interested in this low level stuff, here is a
solution to the classpath issue. If anyone wants ClassPathUpdate class,
just shoot me an email:
public class main
{
public main(String[] args)
{
ClassLoader loader = ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader();
if(loader instanceof URLClassLoader)
{
//For convenience so we don't have to cast everything
URLClassLoader urlLoader = (URLClassLoader)loader;
//Get the existing jars in the class path and show them
URL [] urls = urlLoader.getURLs();
showUrls(urls, "Before");
System.out.println("Trying to add url
C:\\jdk1.5\\jre\\lib\\ext.sav\\servlet.jar");
try
{
//Add a new one
ClassPathUpdater.addFile("C:\\jdk1.5\\jre\\lib\\ext.sav\\servlet.jar",
urlLoader);
System.out.println("!!!!!Success");
//Show the results after
urls = urlLoader.getURLs();
showUrls(urls, "\nAfter");
}
catch(Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
else
{
System.out.println(loader.getClass().getName() + " is not a
URLClassLoader");
}
}
....
And here is the results of the run, Note that the added file "servlet.jar"
is now in the classpath in the "After" block:
...test>java -cp test.jar main
Before, Got 1 URLs = :
URL[0] = file:/D:/JavaProjects/ClassLoader/test/test.jar
Trying to add url C:\jdk1.5\jre\lib\ext.sav\servlet.jar
!!!!!Success
After, Got 2 URLs = :
URL[0] = file:/D:/JavaProjects/ClassLoader/test/test.jar
URL[1] = file:/C:/jdk1.5/jre/lib/ext.sav/servlet.jar

I'll check this, but I think I have figured out a way. The classloader of
the thread that instantiates my container has the necessary url's. However,
because this is a java -jar startup, classpath is ignored by the default
classloader.
So, (I think), all I gotta do is call ClassLoader.getURLs() from the Ofbiz
thread, save them away, then call addURL(URL url) on the gui thread to add
them in. I know addURL(URL url) is protected, but I am pretty sure I know
how to get around that. Unfortunately, I am at my main job now and cant try
it out. Can't wait to get home to give it a go.

Yep, I gathered that. Note that the class loader is retrieved with:
ClassLoader loader = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader();
I am guessing that the GUI thread does not have the application classpath.
The question is, how to give it. At runtime, I know exactly where all these
jar file are.

I am getting the following error:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:
org.ofbiz.service.engine.StandardJavaEngine
On this line 81 of
org.ofbiz.service.engine.GenericEngineFactory.getGenericEngine:
Class c = loader.loadClass(className);
I am running ofbiz as a standalone app, similiar to java ofbiz.jar -pos
I don't get this problem when I run Ofbiz normally using the same "login"
service.
Somehow, it appears as if ofbiz-service.jar is not on the class path or
cannot be accessed. I even went so far as to copy it into my lib directory
with my jar file where it is referenced by my ofbiz-component.xml as:
<classpath type="jar" location="dist/*"/>
<classpath type="jar" location="dist/lib/*"/>
No joy. I am referencing lots of other Ofbiz jar files and they all load
just fine, for example ofbiz-base.jar, ofbiz-security.jar, and
ofbiz-party.jar. For some reason, the class loader will not load the
service engine. I only get a problem when I try to call a service with
"dispatcher.runSync()". I have been successfully reading and writing the
the database via GenericDelegator without problem. Just when I try to run a
service.
This is running under windows, jdk 1.5 and the Ofbiz version of a week ago.
For completeness, here is my containers.xml file:
<ofbiz-containers xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="http://www.ofbiz.org/dtds/ofbiz-containers.xs
d">
<!-- load the ofbiz component container (always first) -->
<container name="component-container"
class="org.ofbiz.base.container.ComponentContainer"/>
<!-- load the cached classloader container (always second) -->
<container name="classloader-container"
class="org.ofbiz.base.container.ClassLoaderContainer"/>
<!-- load the FS Sales Order Entry GUI -->
<container name="fssoe-container" class="com.fs.FSSoeContainer">
<property name="startup-directory"
value="/specialpurpose/fs/config/"/>
<property name="dispatcher-name" value="FSSoeDispatcher"/>
<property name="delegator-name" value="default"/>
</container>
</ofbiz-containers>
Anyone have a clue. I'd hate to do this thing entirely without using the
Ofbiz services.

I'm guessing Price Rules could work. Are the quantity breaks random, or is
logical? I mean 1-5qty Full Price, 6-9qty 10% off, 10 or more 15% off?
Or is it more insane like productId A is 1-5, productId B is 1-3? Z 1-500?
Even if appears random, is there some sort of pattern from which you could
create groups (Product Classifications)?
Product Classifications can be your friend. We have thousands of Product
Classifications, yet only a handful of price rules.
In case you didn't realize it price rules add together, and you may have to
create offseting rules to get the price where you want it.
