Orders in Camunda

Camunda 7 Topics Discussion & Questions

Hi All,

Is it possible to create orders in Camunda.? The end result should be an order number that will invoke several camunda processes in the backend.

I am doing a POC for a telco.

That doesn’t sound hard at all. Camunda shouldn’t have any problem doing that.

Thanks @Niall… Does camunda have any inbuilt API for creation of orders.? if yes please share or else should we customize creation of unique order numbers like for ex through db sequences etc?

Thanks ¨

This question makes me think that you’re not entirely aware of what camunda is exactly.
So i’d suggest you follow some of tutorial available to get an idea of how it’s used and that very well could help you answer a few of your questions.

Hi @Niall

I want to know about the order management functionalities in camunda. Please point me to existing documentation if any for these if possible or use cases where camunda is being used for order management in telcos.

Thanks

Hi @3672ricky,

I am not sure what functionalities you mean , when you say order management. Camunda can automate order processes. You can basically build your own process for ordering management. Not sure if that is what you are looking for.

Some examples for the usage of Camunda in telco industry are 1&1 and Telecom Austria.. At least they describe for what they use Camunda, but they don’t publish their processes.

I hope that helps a little bit. Kind regards
Nele

Hey @3672ricky,

You are right Zalando is using Camunda for parts of its ordering process. You can find the case study here. . Unfortunately they don’t open source their project with Camunda. So there is no more details on the technical implementation.

We can try to help you if you tell us what you need to achieve. Every company normally deals with a different IT architecture. So if you have question how to integrate Camunda with existing architecture we could point you in the right directions.

If you have questions on how to build a process for ordering management, we can help with the design. We would need to understand what the requirements for the process are and what you have build so far.

It is easier to help you, if the question has more details as we don’t have a general concept for industries or processes.

Hope that helps
Nele
