Re: Accounting preferences and blank SeqCustMethod's
Thanks Jacques:
I was wondering about these "old" methods:
invoiceSeqCustMethId="INV_HOOK_ENF_SEQ"
quoteSeqCustMethId="INV_HOOK_ENF_SEQ"
orderSeqCustMethId="INV_HOOK_ENF_SEQ"
oldInvoiceSequenceEnumId="INVSQ_ENF_SEQ"
oldOrderSequenceEnumId="ODRSQ_ENF_SEQ"
oldQuoteSequenceEnumId="QTESQ_ENF_SEQ"
Do I need to these old* methods if I set the above three? Are they
deprecated?
I'm trying to pre-populate PartyAcctgPreference from seed data (if that is
possible). There are no existing transactions yet.
Thanks

Re: Accounting preferences and blank SeqCustMethod's

Mike,
You only need them if you want to enforce sequences (ie have no holes in Ids sequences). Short and rough explanation: OFBiz uses an
Id Seq. optimisation mechanism which allocates blocks of Ids (see SequenceBank.fillBank() method in SequenceUtil.java) . If, for
instance, you restart your machine then you will get a hole because a new block will be allocated and some Ids lost. This is really
annoying for invoices, that's why you have by default
> invoiceSeqCustMethId="INV_HOOK_ENF_SEQ"
But it's less annoying for quotes an orders. So if you don't need enforsed seq. ids for your quotes an orders, then you can forget
them

Are not methods but the fields references in CustomMethod Entity.
