ValidateComplexProduct Method

This method executes product validation expression validation rules associated with a complex product and returns any rule violations. It queries the Business Component VORD Compound Product Rule for all the rules defined for the top level product (network product) of the compound product (network). It then instantiates the business service for each of the rules and asks them for the fields and attribute values they need. It then initializes the Projected Asset Cache by asking it to build a future state of all the root line items within this compound product. This is done by querying the Quote Item, Order Item, Asset and their XAs for the fields and attributes required by all the rules, and then applying them to the associated assets. It then invokes the Validate method of each rules checker business service and creates a consolidated list of rules violations.

The ValidateComplexProduct method is called within the VORD Validate Complex Product (Order) or VORD Validate Complex Product (Quote) workflows, which in turn are called within the Verify Item (Order) or Verify Item (Quote) workflows.
