    Hi

    As per the TMF OpenAPI - execution of TMF641 SOItems supposed to be

    - Sequential (one by one) execution of SOItem(s) or
    - Parallel execution of SOItem(s) or
    - Orchestrate based on serviceOrderItem + orderItemRelationship + serviceRelationship and rest of the SOItem(s) simultaneously.

    Thanks
    Vikas

    Hello Vikas,

    From my perspective the third option is the better.
    When they are described the relationship (at order item or service level) has to be considered for the orchestration (accordingly to the relationship semantic).

    Hope it helps,
    Ludovic

    Hi Vikas,

    The interface only specifies how to hand over a request but does not really prescribe how the fulfillment should be structured.

    From a practical perspective, I believe, the fulfillment of individual order items from TMF641 is up to a SOM application.  A client app (e.g. a COM) can provide additional information to suggest the execution process sequence (order item priority, dependencies and relationships) but the final decision on the orchestration process is still up to a SOM app

    Hi Vikas,
    I agree with Loduvic, to be more specific execution of TMF 641 api will depend on how the service is configured.  Coming from product order and decomposed during service provisioning, each service order api parameters will be populated according to the service design config where the orderRelationship field will be populated and other related fields (i.e. priority).

    Hope this helps.
