How to update the Input message data in OSM

Question

hi,
I am using OSM 7.0.2.
can we update input message data before the orchestration execution.
I want to add some more order line item to the input xml by calling some external webservice.
Suppose CRM submits order with 3 order line item. Now once we have that in Input message i want to add some more order line item to this input message.
I dont want to add processing/adapter layer above OSM that does the updation of the XML.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Rutvej,
You use Order Data Rule to generate data for the creation view of the orchestration order. The source schema of the Order Data Rule is the schema for the incoming message. The output returns the <_root> portion of the creation view. Note that the Order Template already has the Sales Order (look for "order <XML>") and automatically populated by OSM Core. So, what you are trying to do is not to add/change the Sales Order itself, but to first add the desired enriching data model into Order Template, and then use Order Data Rule to populate those enriching data into the Order Template.
Example of Order Data Rule:
declare namespace cso="http://xmlns.oracle.com/communications/sce/dictionary/CentralOMManagedServices-Orchestration/CustomerSalesOrder";
let $customer := //cso:CustomerAccount
return
<_root>
     <OrderHeader>
          <AccountIdentifier>{$customer/cso:AccountID/text()}</AccountIdentifier>
     </OrderHeader>
     <EnrichedOrderItem>
          <Data1>Your enriched data here</Data1>
          <Data2>Your enriched data here</Data2>
     </EnrichedOrderItem>
</_root>
Before that, you would need to add the OrderHeader and EnrichedOrderItem into the Order Template.
