Automatic Order Plan Development Guidelines

If orders are to be viewed in OMS, then the OMS services must be used to submit orders.

Plan development performance is related to the size of the catalogue and the order being decomposed. Where possible reduce the size of both to improve performance.

Do not model plan fragments that do not do anything at execution time. Only plan items that do useful work should go into the plan.

Make use of milestones and overlapping sequencing instead of empty plan items for dependencies.

When making use of Attribute-Based Decomposition, be aware of the potential performance impact of the evaluation of XPath expressions (XSLT processing) in BE.
