ABOAutoOrderSalesCopy

Question

Siebel 7.8.2.5 - Sales
You can create an Order by clicking on "Auto Order" button in the Quote Applet. This method is called "ABOAutoOrderSalesCopy" and is a vanilla method and the methods are not exposed to edit. It calls a WF called "SIS OM Quote To Order Workflow PMT Version". The Business Services invoked by this WF are not editable.
Now, I have a few custom fields in Quote that I need to populate when I create the Order. Is there anyway I can edit the WF
OR
Can I write a custom WF/Script to replicate the functionality + handle the additional fields.
Is there a document that explains what the method "ABOAutoOrderSalesCopy" does?

Perform the following configuration steps to be able to copy custom fields from Quote Line Items to Order Line Items.
In Siebel Tools
Extend tables S_ORDER_ITEM and S_QUOTE_ITEM to accommodate custom columns. For ease of maintenance, both tables should have the same column names for the extension columns.
Expose custom columns in :
Order Entry - Line Items
Quote Item
Quote Item (No Link)
Order Entry - Line Items (Simple)
For Siebel version 7.7 and higher, also expose the columns in two additional business components:
MACD Quote Item
MACD Order Entry - Line Items
Expose the custom fields in the user interface (UI). appropriate applets.
Add the following user property to the SIS OM PMT Service business service for each custom field:
Name = SIS OM Quote.Line Item:SIS OM Order.Line Item Map N (where N is the next higher incremental number)
Value = [CustomField]:[CustomField]
Define the field mapping for the high performance quote to order method by adding the following business component user property to the Order Entry – Orders business component for each custom field:
Name = Quote To Order Line Item Map N (where N is the next higher incremental number)
Value = CustomField:CustomField
For Siebel version 7.7 and higher, perform these additional steps:
6. Define the custom field as an integration component field under MACD Order Entry - Line Items integration component of MACD Order Entry integration object.
7. Define the custom field as an integration component field under MACD Order Entry - Line Item’s integration component of SIS OM Order integration object.
8. Define the custom field as an integration component field under MACD Quote Item Integration component of MACD Quote integration object.
9. Define the custom field as an integration component field under MACD Quote Item integration component of SIS OM Quote integration object.
Compile the changes into the Siebel Repository file (.srf).
