[Erp5-dev] Address for site/ category

[Łukasz Nowak]

Hello,

I'm preparing to implement categories for source/destination on 
Sale/Purchase and other product related movement documents.

Is there implementation for getting address for site/ category in ERP5? 
Or shall I implement something specific? Address would be used only for 
printed documents and UI representation.

I was thinking about such scenarios:
  (a) for an organisation add Address (and phone, email, fax) objects 
with id same as site id
  (b) add site category for Address (and phone, email, fax) object and 
relate them with proper category.

In (a) there is need for some magic, eg. to find Address for 
subwarehouse which is subcategory of site, and I *feel* its not well suited.

In (b) relation between address (and rest) with site is simple. Only 
little magic is needed to find address for category, which parents do 
have address.

Well - I hope that I was clear enough. I'd like to implement such 
feature in Nexedi-acceptable way and may put it into core?

If something like this is implemented already let me know :)

Thanks,
Luke

Example config for (b):

Organisation: ACME
   Site: site/acme_site
   Addresses:
     default_address DA
     warA_address WA-A (site/acme_site/warehouseA)
     warA_address WA-C (site/acme_site/warehouseC)

Sites:
   site/acme_site
   site/acme_site/warehouseA
   site/acme_site/warehouseB
   site/acme_site/warehouseC
   site/acme_site/warehouseC/buildingA

for site in Sites:
   site,site.getAddress():
     site/acme_site,DA (cos we are site for Organisation:ACME)
     site/acme_site/warehouseA,WA-A (direct)
     site/acme_site/warehouseB,DA (by parent)
     site/acme_site/warehouseC,WC-C (direct)
     site/acme_site/warehouseC/buildingA,WC-C (by parent)
