Enterprise Orchestrator terminology
This table shows terms used in the Enterprise Orchestrator
| Term | Description |
|---|---|
| Activity | Task or operation that is executed as a part of a Symphony |
| AI Agent | Invokes an AI agent for intelligent decision-making or reasoning within the symphony flow. |
| BAAS Service | Calls a Backend as a Service API for application integration. |
| Canvas | A space dedicated to place and link activities that create a symphony |
| Cron expression | A string that specifies the schedule for executing tasks automatically at defined times or recurring intervals |
| Error handling | A process that defines how a flow responds to runtime failures |
| Execution | A single run of a Symphony |
| Filter | A construct that evaluates a condition at runtime and allows the Symphony flow to continue only when the condition is true. Otherwise, the execution stops. |
| Flow | A workflow that defines a business or integration process |
| Flow Timeout | A timeout setting that controls an activity execution |
| ION Workflow | Triggers an ION Workflow. |
| ION Data Flow | Runs an ION Data Flow for data transformation and routing. |
| ML Model | Triggers a machine learning model for predictions or classifications. |
| On-error mapping | A configuration that defines how a flow behaves when an activity fails |
| Optmization Model | Runs an AI optimization model to find optimal solutions |
| Output variables | Data created by an activity during Symphony execution |
| RPA Job | Executes a Robotic Process Automation job for automated UI interactions. |
| Schedule | An automation that defines a specific time for starting a Symphony |
| State | A point in the symphony execution path |
| Switch | A construct which is a decision-making state in a Symphony that evaluates a defined condition at runtime and directs the flow to one of the configured branches based on the result. |
| Symphony | An orchestration model that coordinates workflows across multiple Infor applications |
| Symphony Timeout | A timeout setting that controls a Symphony execution |
| Symphony variables | Data that provides a way to store and exchange values between states within a Symphony |
| Wait | A construct that pauses a symphony execution for a configured duration (minimum one minute, maximum thirty days) before automatically resuming the flow. |
