Overview

Service Description and Purpose

  Comment
	What is the service? Why do we care? Articulation of the Business purpose of the specification 	Description of the functional capabilities in business terms

Scope

  Comment
    Describe the overall potential scope of the service.  Are any items being specifically excluded from the scope?  Why?

Reason why the service is necessary

  Comment
    Rationale for creating this specification. Consumer viewpoint and the value offered by the work product

Links to Use Cases/ Storyboards

• (optional, depending on detail in interop business scenario section

Structure of the Service

The Order Manager Conceptual Diagram is shown below. Individual functional profiles have not yet been identified as we still need to work through the more complex use cases and identify the need for different profiles to support different contexts.

Organization

 Comment
   Elaborate any logical groupings that emerge from the usage scenarios

Assumptions and Dependencies

 Comment
   Upon what services does this specification depend (underpinning infrastructure, other HL7 services,  etc. Are there any key assumptions that are being made?

Implementation Considerations

  Comment
    Relevant and representative examples of deployment scenarios. Consider representation formalism and the intended audience, not necessarily rigorously expressing the content in UML. This specification in the real world (e.g., relationships to existing infrastructure, other deployed services, dependencies, etc.). Consider the ways that information bindings will be realized through the operations. If necessary, outline a strategy for this binding.
