Pattern: Derive Instances of Transient NodesLocate this document in the navigation structure

Definition

Determinations of this pattern are used to create, update, or delete instances of transient nodes. A determination is executed before the consumer accesses the transient node to which the determination is assigned.

Use

A determination is executed before the consumer accesses the transient node to which the determination is assigned.

Note

Since these determinations are executed before a transient node is accessed, the instances of this transient node must be consistent.

Example

The CUSTOMER_INVOICE business object does not store payment options. The PAYMENT_OPTION node is a transient node buffering detail information that is located in another system.
