Order item parameter bindings are used in many areas of Oracle Communications Order and Service Management (OSM) to ensure that order item parameters can be synchronized with conceptual model entities. Order item parameter bindings are especially necessary when using the order transformation manager feature of OSM.
You use order item parameter bindings to map incoming order item parameters to parameters on a conceptual model entity. You can create multiple order item parameter bindings for different types of parameters on the incoming order. For example, you could create one binding for parameters that are stored as name-value pairs and another binding for more strongly typed parameters, where the element name is itself the name of the parameter.
