Create a Decomposition Relationship

Create a single decomposition relationship between the source product class and the destination technical product.

When you associate this product class with the commercial products and create just one decomposition relationship, Order Management knows to use the decomposition relationship defined in the class so all the similar products decompose to the same technical product.

Note

The steps in this topic use the example of the Cloud Storage Class product as set up in the topic Create a Product Class. However, you can choose another product to set up the decomposition relationship.

To create a decomposition relationship, follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to the Products > All Products view and select Cloud Storage Class.
  2. Click the Related tab.
  3. In the Decomposition Relationships (Source Product) related list, click New.
  4. Enter the New Decomposition Relationship information. For example:
    • Decomposition Relationship Name: CloudStorageClass > TechnicalCloudStorage
    • Destination (Product): Technical Cloud Storage
  5. Click Save.
  6. Click the decomposition relationship just created.
  7. Expand Mapping Rules and click Add New Rule.
  8. Enter the required information in the Add New Rule dialog. For example:

    Field

    Value

    Source Type

    Attribute

    Attribute/Field

    Storage Limit

    Mapping Type

    ad-verbatim

    Destination Attribute

    Storage Limit

This decomposition relationship maps the source Storage Limit attribute of Cloud Storage Class to the destination Storage Class attribute of Technical Cloud Storage. The ad-verbatim mapping rule does not alter the data so the mapping value passes through unchanged.
