Canonical order loop: dcm.order.

States:

  • OPEN
  • CONFIRMED
  • ALLOCATION_PENDING
  • ALLOCATED
  • SHIPPED
  • ALLOCATION_FAILED
  • CANCELLED
  • CLOSED

Key transitions: confirm_order, request_allocation, allocation_succeeded, line_shipped, close_order.

Guards

Integration

Order loops depend on SCM inventory and execution events for allocation and shipping confirmation.
