Conceptual Model Editor Properties Tab

Use the Properties tab to define how the conceptual model entity is realized, to associate fulfillment patterns to the conceptual model entity, and to extend a conceptual model entity from another conceptual model entity.

Field	Use
Extends	Extends the conceptual model entity from another conceptual model entity. When you extend one entity from another, the target entity inherits all of the data elements defined for the extended entity. See "Extending Design Studio Entities" for more information.
Implementation System	Define the system where the application entity is used. Select one of the following: Select None if the conceptual model entity will not be realized as an application entity. You select this option, for example, if the conceptual model entity is intended for informational use only. Select Unified Inventory Management if the conceptual model entity will be realized as an entity used in the Design Studio for Inventory application. Select Other System if the conceptual model entity will be realized as an application entity that will be used in a system other than Unified Inventory Management. Note: The design patterns that are delivered with Design Studio and that realize the conceptual model entities add configuration to your workspace only if you define this field with the Unified Inventory Management value.
Realization Design Pattern	Select which design pattern converts the conceptual model entity into an application entity and creates the application entity configuration.
Implementation Method	Specify how the conceptual model entity realizes as an application entity. For example, a customer facing service realizes as a Service specification in a Design Studio for Inventory project. If you change the value in this field and re-run a Design Studio default design pattern, the design pattern does not delete any previously generated entities. See "Realizing Conceptual Model Entities into Application Entities" for information about how each conceptual model entity realizes.
Run Realization Design Pattern Automatically	Select to synchronize conceptual model entities and application entities automatically. When you select this option, Design Studio runs a design pattern automatically when you: Save of the editor of the conceptual model entity. Change the conceptual model entity using an option that you select from the context menu. Manually synchronize or realize a direct child of the conceptual model entity. For example, when this option is selected, Design Studio automatically runs a design pattern for an RFS if you manually synchronize a child resource. See "Synchronizing Conceptual Model Entities with Application Entities" for more information.
Strict Configuration Checking	Deselect to relax the configuration warnings associated with entity realization. For example, consider that your model includes a conceptual model specification that is realized by a pre-existing Inventory Service specification and Service Configuration specification, and that these specifications include a configuration that violates the Design Studio model validation rules. You can deselect the Strict Configuration option to limit the validation severity to a warning.
Realized By	Displays the name of the application entity realized from the conceptual model entity. This field is blank if the design pattern selected in Realization Design Pattern has not yet run.
Fulfillment Pattern	Associate fulfillment patterns to the conceptual model entity. A fulfillment pattern provides an order and service management system with the steps required to orchestrate the service order at run-time. Do one of the following: Click Select to associate an existing fulfillment pattern to the conceptual model entity. Click Add to create a new fulfillment pattern and associate the new fulfillment pattern to the conceptual model entity. Select a value and click Open, which opens the fulfillment pattern in the Fulfillment Pattern editor. Select a value in the Fulfillment Pattern field and click Remove to remove the association between the fulfillment pattern and the conceptual model entity.
Key	Enter a value to enable the Order and Service Management order transformation manager to identify the payload of a line item at run time. The default value for this field is the name of the entity. You can define a different key value for an entity if your business processes require a naming convention less restrictive than then entity name requirements.
