Integrate Inventory Information in AOPD Plan Generation

In the Automated Order Plan Development (AOPD), integrating inventory information into plan generation is a critical process. The following properties determine how inventory information is integrated into the plans.

Property Description
mergeInventory

Determines whether the functionality for merging inventory is activated during plan generation.

Possible values: true or false

Default: false

inventoryUsername Username used for authentication with the services of TIBCO Product Service and Inventory.
inventoryPassword Password used for authentication with the services of TIBCO Product Service and Inventory.
inventoryBaseUrl Base URL containing the host and port for accessing TIBCO Product Service and Inventory.

When submitting an order request, including PartyId is mandatory. This identifier can be provided as either CustomerId or SubscriberId. TIBCO Order Management evaluates the mergeInventory property to decide on the integration of inventory information into plan generation.

  • When mergeInventory is true

    Order management retrieves inventory information from Product Service and Inventory using the credentials and base URL specified by inventoryUsername, inventoryPassword, and inventoryBaseUrl. The system integrates the retrieved inventory data into the plan, customizing it according to the specifics of the order request.

  • When mergeInventory is false

    The inventory merging process is skipped. Plan generation continues without incorporating live inventory data, relying on the information available at the request time.
