Creating New Fulfillment Modes

You create fulfillment modes in Design Studio to represent whether an incoming order is intended for testing, for fulfillment using downstream provisioning systems, to determine whether the order is technically feasible, and so forth. OSM uses the fulfillment mode on the incoming order to determine the orchestration sequence required to fulfill the order.

To create new fulfillment modes:

  1. From the Studio menu, select New, select Order and Service Management, select Orchestration, then select Fulfillment Mode.

    The Fulfillment Mode wizard is displayed.

  2. In the Project Name field, select the project in which to save the fulfillment mode.

  3. In the Name field, enter a name for the fulfillment mode.

    The name must be unique among fulfillment mode entity types within the same namespace.

  4. In the Namespace field, select an existing namespace, or enter a unique namespace in which to include the fulfillment mode.

    Design Studio uses the last saved namespace as the default.

  5. (Optional) Select a location for the fulfillment mode.

    By default, Design Studio saves the entity to your default workspace location. You can enter a folder name in the Folder field, or select a location different from the system-provided default. To select a different location:

    1. Click the Folder field Browse button.

    2. Navigate to the directory in which to save the entity.

    3. Click OK.

  6. Click Finish.

    Design Studio adds the new fulfillment mode entity to the Studio Projects view and opens the new entity in the Fulfillment Mode editor.
