Order Item Specification Editor Order Item Hierarchies Tab

Use the Order Item Hierarchies tab to define the relative hierarchies among order items.

An order item hierarchy represents a logical parenting of order items in the order. Incoming customer orders may contain multiple order item hierarchies. For example, a single order item may exist in multiple hierarchies.

Note:

See "Order Item Specification Editor" for information about fields that appear on multiple Order Item Specification editor tabs.

Field	Use
Physical Hierarchy	Select the hierarchy for OSM to use for the order items on the order, or delete the selection to process the order item without a hierarchy.
Composition Hierarchy	Select the hierarchy for OSM to use in determining fulfillment states, or delete the selection for OSM to use only the order item's order components to determine the order item fulfillment state.
Order Item Hierarchies list	Associate the order item with one or multiple hierarchies. Click: Add to enter the name of a new hierarchy. For each hierarchy, you must configure an XQuery expression to select the key value and parent key value for the hierarchy. Remove to delete the hierarchy from the order item specification.
Key Expression	Specify an XQuery expression to select the key value for the corresponding order item within a specific hierarchy (for example, within a line number). See "Order Item Specification Editor" and "About Order Item Specification Order Item Hierarchy XQuery Expressions" for more information.
Parent Key Expression	Specify an XQuery expression to select the parent key value for the corresponding order item within a specific hierarchy (for example, within a parent line number). See "Order Item Specification Editor" and "About Order Item Specification Order Item Hierarchy XQuery Expressions" for more information.
