Note: Customer Service processes order processing notes. If an Order Processing Note is attached to an order, the order is placed on hold. The hold must be removed before the order can be fulfilled. Holds can result in delays to order processing.
f.Order Notes
Partners can enter order notes on the Purchase Order for their own references. Cisco would not take any action on these but these can be viewed on the Order View status screen.

Note: Order Processing Notes and Order Notes are utilizing the same PIP element in PO. The derivation logic would be as follows:
-
System checks if the string “OrderNotes=” is present. If yes, then system will consider text after the string as Order Notes and text before the string as Order Processing notes
If there is no string ‘OrderNotes=’ then system will consider all the text as Order Processing Notes.
g.SWIFT and eDelivery Products
Software Infrastructure and Fulfillment Technology (SWIFT) enables e-fulfillment capabilities for initial purchase and support upgrades with a long-term focus on the enablement of electronic channel fulfillment models.
When partners submit orders for a SWIFT or eDelivery product, they can provide one or more email addresses (comma separated) used to receive a URL and a license key for the products. Partners can provide the email address under the “eDeliveryemail” key/value pair at the Line level.
If the SWIFT email address is not provided, the eDelivery Application has the logic to internally derive the delivery email based on the company accounts set up.
The system shall identify the possible delivery types for an SKU being ordered and use the following defaulting logic. Delivery Method is not a new attribute on the XML order.
If a SKUs only compatible delivery method is “Physical”, the delivery method defaults to physical. (Covers Regular SKU Scenario)
If a SKUs only compatible delivery method is “Electronic”, the delivery method defaults to electronic. (Covers L-SKU Scenario).
If a “Single SKU” can be ordered both electronically and physically, the delivery method is retrieved from the partner’s profile (Covers the Single SKU Scenario). If a delivery preference is not specified the order is rejected.
For SKUs that can be delivered electronically, the SKU is delivered at the email address specified in the “eDeliveryemail” email address tag field.
The table that follows indicates the optional nature of SWIFT and eDelivery of products. This fact is evidenced by a cardinality value of 0..1.

| h.Flexible Service Start Delay (FSSD)
FSSD allows partners to order Product + Service in CCW and automatically delay service start up to 60 days after ship date. FSSD is being released as Limited Availability which will allow Cisco to evaluate business impact.
In order to indicate a delay period, partners can send in a new name value pair will be sent for every service/subscription line at line level or kitRef Line.
For an initial purchase of service (both product & service on same PO or PO coming with Service lines which are covering products that are not yet shipped), system does not expect the Service Start Date to be present on the PO and if this is present, system will ignore it. Service Start Date in these scenarios are based on Product shipment unless the user qualifies for FSSD and has provided the value in the PO.
