What

OFBiz Architecture

OFBiz is a general purpose framework for building software that controls common business processes
Unlike many systems which provide abstract software structures, OFBiz attempts to supply a set of data structures and software libraries for managing more concrete business elements such as orders, employees, contracts, and manufacturing processes
The OFBiz data schema is based on Len Silverston’s comprehensive survey of industry data modeling practices
OFBiz provides more than 700 data classes representing common business structures

Features

Advanced e-commerce (integrated catalog, pricing, order and sales management)
Customer relationship management
Warehouse management and fulfillment (auto stock moves, batched pick, pack and ship)
Accounting (invoice, payment and billing accounts, fixed assets)
Work efforts (manufacturing, events, tasks, etc.)
Content management (product content, web sites, documents, blogging, forums, etc)

Entity Engine

Entity: small unit of data model

Data Model definded in XML: Entitymodel.xml, entitygroup.xml
GenericDelegator API
GenericValue API
Database Independent
OFBiz apps work with relational stores directly
Entity Engine provides a “ResultSet on steroids”interface to relational data called a GenericEntity

Entityengine.xml, fieldtype.xml, cache properties

Schemas and queries are database agnostic
A caching infrastructure is provided to accelerate common lookups. Cache sizes can be adjusted on an Entity by Entity basis

Service Engine

Service: small unit of business logic

Generic Business Logic defined in XML, Defined in services.xml
Dispatcher API
Services are exposed as stateless units of functionality with named parameters and can be called synchronous, asynchronous or scheduled
Services can be implemented in a variety of languages; The calling interface shields any calling code from the implementation details
Services can be delegated to remote machines via SOAP, XML-RPC and other messaging services; OFBiz services can also be externally exposed via the same protocols

Example Service

<service name="quickShipEntireOrder" engine="simple" auth="true" location="org/ofbiz/shipment/shipment/ShipmentServices.xml"
invoke="quickShipEntireOrder">
<description>Quick Ships An Entire Order Creating One Shipment Per Facility and Ship Group. All approved order items are automatically
issued in full and put into one package. The shipment is created in the INPUT status and then updated to PACKED and SHIPPED.
</description>
<attribute name="orderId" type="String" mode="IN" optional="false"/>
<attribute name="originFacilityId" type="String" mode="IN" optional="true"/>
<attribute name="setPackedOnly" type="String" mode="IN" optional="true"/>
<attribute name="shipmentShipGroupFacilityList" type="List" mode="OUT" optional="false"/>
</service>
