I have been looking through the weberp database this morning and one of the main differences that I have come across between weberp and EGS is the representation of contact details (ie address/phone/fax/email/etc). In weberp am I right in saying that a company has one address, whereas in EGS a company can have as many 'contacts' as you like since they are stored in a different table. Along with each 'contact' the type of 'contact' can be set, so for example, when you add a company with an address, the address is automatically set as the default for billing/shipping/payment/technical/main, then when you add more addresses you can change which is assigned for each, so a company can easily have a different address for billling and shipping, and this can be pulled from the DB without the user having to select it for the company. What are peoples opinions on this method of address/contact handling? Thanks Jake |
