3 Working with Recognition Rules
Oracle Communications Order and Service Management (OSM) can recognize the source of any incoming XML-based order, transform each order from the incoming format to one that is recognized by OSM, enrich the data on the order, and validate the data, if required.
To recognize the source of in-bound orders and interpret the order's structure, OSM uses an ordered list of recognition rules that you configure in Oracle Communications Design Studio. OSM evaluates each rule in an order that you define and selects the first rule that evaluates to true. The selected rule determines the order type and source of the incoming order and the required validations and transformations, if any.
When modeling recognition rules, refer to the following topics:
