Fulfillment Pattern Editor Duration Subtab

For cartridges that target OSM server version 7.2.0 or earlier, use the Duration subtab to specify the minimum process duration for the associated fulfillment pattern.

Note:

OSM uses several configured durations to calculate the start times for order components. See OSM Concepts for more information.

For cartridges that target OSM server version 7.2.2 or later, the Duration subtab has no effect on fulfillment patterns. If you configure any values and deploy the cartridge to OSM server 7.2.2 or later, you will get a warning that the configured values on the Duration subtab are ignored.

Field	Use
Duration	Define a specific duration in the Duration field, or create an XQuery expression in the Duration Expression field to run against a specific order item property. This is used when the calculated duration for an order item based on order component durations and dependencies is less than the minimum processing duration value for the fulfillment pattern that the order item maps to. You can override the fulfillment pattern process duration by specifying the processing duration for individual order components.
Duration Expression	Enter an XQuery expression or a pointer to determine the processing duration based on a specific order item property. See "About Creating XQuery Expressions with Design Studio" for more information about entering information into XQuery controls. See "About Fulfillment Pattern Duration XQuery Expressions" for more information.
