Telecom Egypt IM System
Inventory Management โ Developer Documentation
What is IM?
The Inventory Management (IM) system is one of three core components in Telecom Egypt's OSS Service Fulfillment solution. It acts as the central repository for all service and resource inventory data โ storing what customers have, what network resources are assigned, and tracking every change through its lifecycle.
IM sits between Order Management and Activation Management in the OSS stack
