By default, the software sets the deployment order of all internal CAL packages and custom CAL packages have a deployment order of 1000. Using a deployment order that differs from the best practices recommended order can result in packages going to POS client workstations in an undesirable order. Packages need to deploy to POS client workstations in a specific order. Assigning an order enables Simphony to create and place certain files or folders for one package, which are used later by another package in order to succeed.
Oracle Food and Beverage recommends deploying CAL packages in the following order:

Simphony Standard Cloud Service (Hosted) and Premium Cloud Service (Hosted) Environments

In Simphony Standard Cloud Service environments, the CAL Package Deployment Order field is grayed out and is not configurable at the organization level. The CAL Package Deployment Order is configurable for Simphony Premium Cloud Service environments.
To change the CAL Package Deployment Order, log in to the EMC as a SuperOrg user. Changing the CAL Package Deployment Order as a SuperOrg user performs this change on all organizations associated with the SuperOrg.
Privileged Simphony (self-hosted) users always have the CAL Package Deployment Order field available for configuration or editing.
