A method of managing fulfillment data associated with a fulfillment system
is provided. The method includes establishing a plurality of fulfillment
interfaces for a plurality of fulfillment types by locally generating a
single local parent multi-definition table appropriate for the plurality
of fulfillment types, and for each fulfillment type: generating a name
and definition for a local parent view of the single local parent
multi-definition table; mapping the definition for the local parent view
to the single local parent multi-definition table to generate the local
parent view; and using the name and mapped definition for the local
parent view to remotely generate a remote actual child view of a remote
actual child multi-definition table and a remote staged child view of a
remote staged child multi-definition table, each remote child view
comprising a copy of the local parent view.
