Ejaz Ahmed commented on OFBIZ-5855:
-----------------------------------

In Party entity, partyTypeId is defined as field name.
{code}
 <entity entity-name="Party"
            package-name="org.ofbiz.party.party"
            title="Party Entity">
      <field name="partyId" type="id-ne"></field>
      <field name="partyTypeId" type="id-ne"></field>
{code}

EditPartyGroup screen is calling EditPartyGroup form and in this form partyTypeId is being ignored.

{code}
<field name="groupName" tooltip="${uiLabelMap.CommonRequired}" widget-style="required"></field>
        <field name="partyTypeId"><ignored/></field>
        <field name="description" title="${uiLabelMap.CommonDescription}"><text/></field>
{code}

When I create a party group using create -> party group and look at its table in database, the second field of the table party is party_type_id which is assigned the value of party group. So it looks that this value is being written on the basis of create path. If we select person, it is assigned the value of person. So far it is ok for new person, prospect, employee and customer. Organization group should offer some option as it can be legal, informal etc.

> When find party screen is selected, it shows a drop down list for Type which can be legal organization, informal group, party group, person, team etc. The person and party group types can be selected when we create a party (create new party group, create new person options). However, there is no way to assign the types such as legal organization, informal groups etc which appear in this list to the parties created.
