In this integration, Oracle Utilities Meter Data Management serves as the database for contacts, service points, and meter device connections, while Oracle Utilities Operational Device Management manages assets (meters and components).

Any asset data addition in Oracle Utilities Operational Device Management is communicated to Oracle Utilities Meter Data Management. Based on a template ID, device, device configuration, and measuring component, the records are associated. Once these devices are installed at service points in Oracle Utilities Meter Data Management, the installation information is communicated to Oracle Utilities Operational Device Management.

Service point and contact information are necessary to communicate installation information. These are synchronized separately from Oracle Utilities Meter Data Management to Oracle Utilities Operational Device Management.
