Projects:Product Attributes/Functional Specification

Contents

Overview

Purpose

The purpose of this project is to implement the same features Openbravo ERP has for product attributes. This is a valuable feature for clothes shops that need the size and color attributes to track the inventory, the serial number of electronic products, etc...

The synchronization of product attributes and inventory is detailed in the Improvement of Synchronization Functional Specification document.


Scope

Design Considerations

Assumptions

This functionality may not modify the current functionality of Openbravo POS and may not include complexity in the product if the Openbravo POS user decides not to use the product attributes functionality, i.e. If the user does not want to use the product attributes functionality he should not do extra steps, or find differences in the logic of the application or in reports. It is acceptable that this user may see new buttons, text fields or menu options related to attributes that he is not going to use.

This functionality must be capable to manage:


Dependencies

This feature in Openbravo POS depends in the product attributes implementation in Openbravo ERP. It will not contain all the functionality included in Openbravo ERP but the tables and fields used to describe attributes and the logic used must be the same in order to make it easier to synchronize data and to help users to understand the attributes functionality in both products.
