Creating New Orchestration Fulfillment Patterns

When you are required to represent new sets of products, you create new orchestration fulfillment patterns in Design Studio to model the fulfillment modes, order components, and dependencies required to fulfill order items associated with the corresponding orchestration fulfillment patterns.

To create new orchestration fulfillment patterns:

  1. From the Studio menu, select New, select Order and Service Management, select Orchestration, then select Orchestration Fulfillment Pattern.

    The Fulfillment Pattern wizard is displayed.

  2. In the Project field, select the project in which to save the orchestration fulfillment pattern.

  3. (Optional) In the Extends field, select an existing orchestration fulfillment pattern if you want the new orchestration fulfillment pattern to extend the functionality of an existing orchestration fulfillment pattern.

    Click Select to open the Select Extends dialog box, where you can select an existing orchestration fulfillment pattern. If a suitable orchestration fulfillment pattern does not yet exist, click New in the Select Extends dialog box to create the orchestration fulfillment pattern. When finished, click OK. Your selection populates the corresponding Extends field in the Fulfillment Pattern wizard.

  4. In the Name field, enter a name for the orchestration fulfillment pattern.

    The name must be unique among orchestration fulfillment pattern entity types within the same namespace.

  5. In the Namespace field, select an existing namespace, or enter a unique namespace in which to include the orchestration fulfillment pattern.

    Design Studio uses the last saved namespace as the default.

  6. (Optional) Select a location for the orchestration fulfillment pattern.

    By default, Design Studio saves the entity to your default workspace location. You can enter a folder name in the Folder field or select a location different from the system-provided default. To select a different location:

    1. Click the Folder field Browse button.

    2. Navigate to the directory in which to save the entity.

    3. Click OK.

  7. Click Finish.

    Design Studio adds the new orchestration fulfillment pattern to the Studio Projects view and opens the new entity in the Orchestration Fulfillment Pattern editor.
