Integrate Names and Codes Between Source Systems and Order Management
If your deployment includes an order capture system, then you must map names and codes from it into Order Management.
An orchestration reference object is an object that resides in the set of objects that an orchestration process processes so it can determine the meaning of a name or the description of a code, such as a payment term name, freight code, or transport code.
An order capture system typically sends sales order data that contains names or codes to an orchestration process, and the orchestration process must display a meaning for the name or a description for the code. You must collect the data that determines these meanings and descriptions into the Order Orchestration and Planning Data Repository.
Assume your order capture system sends sales order data that includes a payment term of 2/10, Net 30 to an orchestration process, and data in the repository includes a payment term of 2/10, Net 30. The orchestration process uses the matching codes to identify the payment term description.
