How You Set Priorities for Financial Orchestration Flows

You can set the Priority of a financial orchestration flow to specify which flow to use when more than one flow is available for two primary trade partners. A lower number indicates a higher priority.

For example, if you set the Priority to 1 for Flow A, and 2 for Flow B, then financial orchestration will use Flow A.

The following table gives an example to describe the use of priority for a financial orchestration flow.
