Submitting an Order and Creating Assets

Submitting an order calls the asset-based ordering interface implementation, which creates assets from the order.

You begin the ordering process by creating an opportunity or a quote. The opportunity becomes a quote, and the quote becomes an order. Each line item in an object has an ID. When the order is converted to an asset, the provisioning status becomes active and the asset reference ID is set, based on the Order Line Item object ID. See Asset Reference IDs.

After the first order and first asset have been created, you can change the asset to a quote or an order. As the process continues, the provisioning status changes. When that order becomes a subsequent asset, what happens to the asset depends on the ABOAssetInterfaceABOAssetInterface implementation. See Select the Asset-Based Ordering Implementation.

When using asset-based ordering, the following fields must be populated on an OrderItem:
