             Summary: allow a value in the view relation definition
                 Key: OFBIZ-5256
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-5256
             Project: OFBiz
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: framework
    Affects Versions: SVN trunk
         Environment: any
            Reporter: Hans Bakker
            Assignee: Hans Bakker
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: SVN trunk


I need help from our framework experts.

I want to copy invoices from an ofbiz system to other systems. However the export has partyId's and productid's which are different on the other systems. I want to use the product and party alternative id's to translate these values.

In order to be able to replace party and product id's values in a csv export it is required to be able to have a 'value' specified instead of a field name

the link in a view definition is as follows: (first key-map current, second line new key-map possibility:

      <view-link entity-alias="INV" rel-entity-alias="PFR" rel-optional="true">
            <key-map field-name="partyIdFrom" rel-field-name="partyId"/>
            <key-map value="INVOICE_EXPORT" rel-field-name="partyIdentificationTypeId"/>
        </view-link>

i will attach a diff for my implementation...

Since we (Antwebsystems) focus on application development and not framework development a check with our framework committers is highly appreciated.

Regards,
Hans
