Associated Order Items

In case of Associated order items, in the orchestration plan it shows the associated item by mentioning it as - (assoc) against the line item. However in the corresponding data we could not find any identifier that says the particular order item is an associated order item or not. We are facing a issue during implementation since we are not able to differentiate an Associated Order Item from a normal order item.

Could you please let us know how we can identify whether an orderitem is an associated order item or not.

We have the following business requirement/Scenario

We need to send a order line item to Provisioning (Product Spec : Portability.Mobile). We need certain attributes present in the parent line item (Product Spec Service.Mobile) during provisioning of Portability.Mobile. So we have associated the Parent Line Item as associated order item. We also have some logic in Provisioning module for Service.Mobile line item. Our requirement is that this logic should not be triggered if the Order Line(Service.Mobile) is coming as Associated Order Item and should trigger if it is otherwise.
