Re: where is Rental Store

[Shereen <sh...@hotmail.com>]

Hi all
I'm new to ofbiz and I have questions regarding the rentals
this is my case:
my company has some products for rent say equipments or machines no need to
ship just the very simple functions with any rentals start date and end date
and a flag so that if it's rented to somone we cant rent it to the another
client.
I found a catalog called rental but I dunno really how to deal with it.
Can anyone tell me simple steps as a user on how to setup a product not for
selling but for rentals? how to associate dates to the product?
the rental boats catalog does it include any special feature to say that its
products are for rent not for sail?
I'd be grateful if anyone can tell some steps how to handle this

you first need to understand how the catalog works and Products are made.
I think Ruth's books cover this.

The rental as it stands is not intuitive and requires customization to 
be useful in my opinion.
I spent about two months configuring mine for a boat slip rental.
Since Hans is the one that implemented it, you might contact him.

I've tried that thanks

Now I have the catalog rentals in the ecommerce and I wanted to try to book
the luxuray room for example.

Could you please give me more information on how this rentals work? where is
its calender ?

what if I want to book some thing from my back office?

how to specify that a certain product is for rent not for selling and how to
price it?

Thanks a lot for your help
