Wiki End User Documentation
Hi Everyone
I'd like to volunteer to some some work on tidying up the End User
Documentation on the Wiki. I'm learning OFBiz from an end user and
configuration perspective so plan to focus on the overall business
processes.
I'm happy to do a review of the existing documentation and update where
necessary. I plan to start with just one area (not sure which one yet!),
publish an initial draft and then come back to the mailing list for feedback
and comments.
Thanks
Sharan

Hi Sven
That's great - I'll do some work on accounting then. I'm not an accountant
but I have done a few ERP implementations of finance interfaced with
warehousing, banking etc and so have a good idea of how things should fit
together.
I can start by mapping the default account transactions and their triggers
and then see how that deviates (if at all) from what I've seen before. I'll
also highlight any other relevant configuration points that I come across.
Thanks
Sharan

Actually, it's a great idea to have documentation in Subversion. It will (or
can) follow the evolution of the source code. I'm in for that, absolutely.

We discussed about that recently on dev ML, nothing decided so far (I still own an answer to David's question about Subversion "What
about SubVersion is it that you think would be helpful for managing documentation in OFBiz?"). See thread "OFBiz self hosting"

Or, is a wiki obsolete?..
I think the problem with static documentation is that a developer has a
higher treshold to make an update (by my own experience...).

Catalog and product configuration. Inventory. We have multiple stores and
warehouses so I'm fighting with it. :)
I wish I had more knowledge of the accounting parts, but I'll add it on the
way.
A good thing with a wiki is that we can both update the same document, so if
you feel that there are cross work, it's not a real problem.

Sven

Hi Sven
What documentation can you write? Do you have specific modules or business
processes in mind?
I'm asking because it would be good to co-ordinate things so we're not
duplicating effort.
Thanks
