LoopPrequalifyResponder collaboration template

The LoopPrequalifyResponder collaboration template is used to receive notification of the range of DSL services that can be offered to a specified customer address. LoopPrequalifyResponder communicates with an supplier/partner order handling system. A LoopPrequalifyResponder collaboration object is used together with a LoopPrequalify collaboration object to allow the request and response to be processed asynchronously.

LoopPrequalifyResponder uses the Generic LoopQuality business object to represent a customer location information associated with a service.

This collaboration template uses the ProcessContext attribute of generic business objects to maintain process information between two or more collaboration objects. In order to maintain this information, the collaboration object performs the following actions, starting from when it receives a triggering business object:

Collaboration object setup

This section includes information on port bindings and required steps for setting up collaboration objects based on this collaboration template. For information on standard features, ports, and configuration properties for collaboration templates, and for general information on creating collaboration objects refer to the documents listed in Required documents for creating collaboration objects.

Port information

The following diagram illustrates LoopPrequalifyResponder's ports:

LoopPrequalifyResponder collaboration's ports

Note: To keep the collaboration object from using a port, bind that port to the Port connector. Doing so indicates that the port is unused without causing the collaboration object to provide additional functionality.

The following tables describe bindings for the ports of this collaboration object.
