Methods, systems and computer-readable media for dynamically recognizing and processing service order types in a network management system

A network management system for dynamically recognizing and processing service order types, comprising:

• a memory having a database table for storing registered service type data determined by a plurality of service order types;
• and
• a processing component, in communication with the memory, the processing component configured to:
• receive registered service type data for a new service order type in the database table from the memory, wherein the registered service type data comprises a data field indicating a location of a service order identification in a received service order, at least one identification of the received service order, a priority value associated with each identification in the received service order, a name associated with the received service order, a set of attributes for processing the received service order, and description text for the received service order;
• storing the registered service type data in a plurality of variables in the database table;
• parse the received service order to determine if the received service order corresponds with the new service order type based on the registered service type data;
• and
• if the service order corresponds with the new service order type, then process the service order according to the priority value.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium encoding computer-executable instructions which when executed on a computer perform a method for dynamically recognizing and processing service order types in a network management system, the method comprising:

• parsing a service order to determine if the service order corresponds with a new service order type based on pre-registered service type data;
• if the service order corresponds with the new service order type, then processing the service order according to a priority value associated with the service order;
• registering the service type data for the new service order type in a database table while the network management system is operating, wherein registering the service type data for the new service order type in the database table comprises storing the service type data in a plurality of variables in the database table, wherein the service type data comprises a data field indicating a location of a service order identification in the service order, the service order identification, the priority value associated with each identification in the service order, a name associated with the service order, a set of attributes for processing the service order, and description text for the service order;
• and
• receiving the service order in the network management system, wherein the service type data comprises at least one identification of the service order and the priority value is associated with each identification in the service order.
