The Prerequisites
The Prerequisites
This class assumes the students understand:
Relational concepts like table, column, prime-key, foreign-key
BPEL and OSB (components of the SOA suite)
Note, detailed knowledge is not required, just an understanding of
what these middleware components do
Implementation
D3 - L+G SGG
D4 - Echelon SGG
At least one child product must be installed as D1 doesn't contain specific functionality
An implementation can install additional child products over time (e.g., a
customer who initially purchases D3 can decide at a future date to purchase D4)
Just as D1 is installed in the same database as F1, if an implementation installs multiple
child products, all will exist in the same database instance (i.e., while the products are
separately installable, when they are installed together, their data exists in the same
database; this means that to an implementation, it looks like one "system")
This means that all products installed at an implementation will be installed under the
same releases of F1 and D1
The meter data products have been designed to coexist with any combination of sibling
products and this coexistence requires no implementation integration efforts

D4 - Echelon SGG
CM - Implementation Extensions
When the meter data products are installed, the installation
scripts set up the system so that new features / business rules
added by the implementation are owned by yet another product
This allows future releases of the base-products to be easily
upgraded without upsetting extensions made by an
implementation
Note - the owner of implementation-extensions is CM (customer
modification) and it inherits all behavior in the higher products

Product Identification
If a slide has functionality that is only available if the implementation has
licensed a specific meter data child product, the respective product code
appears in the upper left corner of the slide
If a product code does not appear in the upper left corner, this means the
functionality is part of meter data framework (D1) and is available
regardless of which meter data child products have been installed
This means that the
functionality described on this
slide is only available if the D2
(MDM) product is installed
Maintenance objects
Business objects
Zones
Business processes
Each functional area's anticipated extension points
are also discussed
Before starting the above, if a majority of the class
so desires, a brief recap of the major OUAF
concepts will be presented. For example,
Data ownership
Application security
Service Provider
Device Management
Validate-Edit-Estimate

Usage Calculation Rules
Usage Transaction
