"Look up Product and Price" Displays many empty options in the Combo
Box "Primary Product Category Id"
Hi,
When open "Look up Product and Price" Look up which is reached by the
following Steps:
Order >> Quotes >> find Quote or create new Quote >> Quote Items >> Create
New Quote Item >> open look up beside "Product Id"
The Combo Box "Primary Product Category Id" Contains many empty options
when scroll down inside the Combo Box.
This is because Combo box displays data in the "DESCRIPTION" field in the
entity "ProductCategory" Which maybe contains empty values in many records.
To solve this issue, I am suggesting the following:
In the File : /applications/product/widget/catalog/FieldLookupForms.xml
at lines 144 - 150,
144 <field name="primaryProductCategoryId">
145 <drop-down allow-empty="true">
146 <entity-options description="${description}"
entity-name="ProductCategory" key-field-name="productCategoryId">
147 <entity-order-by field-name="description"/>
148 </entity-options>
149 </drop-down>
150 </field>
Add the following line after line 146
*<entity-constraint name="description" operator="not-in" value="'',''"/>*
Then the above code snippet becomes:
144 <field name="primaryProductCategoryId">
145 <drop-down allow-empty="true">
146 <entity-options description="${description}"
entity-name="ProductCategory" key-field-name="productCategoryId">
147 *<entity-constraint name="description" operator="not-in"
value="'',''"/>*
148 <entity-order-by field-name="description"/>
149 </entity-options>
150 </drop-down>
151 </field>
This will remove any empty "DESCRIPTION" field's value from being listed in
the Combo Box.
This behavior is existing on "demo-trunk" and ofbiz version 12.04.01.
What you think about that ?
Regards,
Medhat

I think it would be nice to use both something like description="${id} - ${description}"
