This chapter provides information about Oracle Communications MetaSolv Solution (MSS) Service Order Activation (SOA) Web Service.
The SOA Web Service enables an external system to activate services for previously placed orders in MetaSolv Solution. SOA Web Service operations enable you to:
Create a service order activation message.
Get service order activation information and defaults.
Get service order activation telephone numbers for an order.
Set a telephone number for service activation order completion.
The SOA Web Service is packaged in the MSS_WebService.ear file, which contains the soa.war file. When the installer deploys the EAR file, the SOA Web Service is automatically deployed and ready to use.
Note:
The MSS_WebService.ear file includes all of the other provided web service operations as well. See "Web Services Overview" for information about the full list of these operations.
The SOA Web Service is defined by the SOAAPI.wsdl file and is supported by numerous schema files. The WSDL file and supporting schema files are located in the soa.war file.
See "Understanding How MSS Defines Web Services" for more information about WSDL and WAR files, and about their directory locations in the EAR file.
Several schema files support the SOA Web Service. Within soa.war file, the schema files are located in the WEB-INF/wsdls directory. These schemas are categorized as common schemas, entity schemas, and data schemas.
The entity schemas define elements, such as keys and types, specific to the web service.
The SOA entity schemas are defined in the following files:
CustomerManagementEntities.xsd
InventoryManagementEntities.xsd
MIPCommonEntities.xsd
OrderManagementEntities.xsd
OrderManagementEvents.xsd
ServiceEntities.xsd
ServiceOrderActivationEntities.xsd
The data schemas contain numerous complex type structures, enumerations, and simple types.
The SOA data schemas are defined in the following files:
CustomerManagementData.xsd
InventoryManagementData.xsd
OrderAncillaryManagementData.xsd
OrderManagementData.xsd
ServiceData.xsd
ServiceOrderActivationData.xsd
The createSoaMessageRequest operation enables you to create and to save a SOA transaction request or response. It takes in a SOATransactionType object, validates it, and saves it to the database. The value of requestType or reponseType within the SOATransactionType indicates if a SOA transaction request or SOA transaction response is created. The value returned is the internal transaction ID or SOATransactionKey object.
The following are the request and response structures:
Request Structure: createSoaMessageRequest
Response Structure: createSoaMessageRequestResponse
The createSoaMessageRequest element contains the input information for the operation. Each row in Table 9-1 describes the element or type name, the XSD declaration, the type description, and the file that contains the item's definition.
