Overview

Demand Chain module overview for demand sensing, order management, and returns.

DCM loops in Commerce Chain:

• dcm.demand-signal
• dcm.order
• dcm.returns

They coordinate demand insight, order execution, and reverse-logistics feedback into shared operational state.

Module interface and services

@betterdata/dcm-* packages export state machines and services you use after wiring runtime dependencies where the package provides configure* (for example @betterdata/dcm-orders, @betterdata/dcm-returns). Pass your OutboxWriter and ChannelReader from @betterdata/scm-contracts; there is no global database import inside the libraries.

Loop participation

Each DCM package ships a participant manifest (demandLoopParticipant, orderLoopParticipant, returnsLoopParticipant, …) using canonical LoopIds and EventNames from @betterdata/loop-definitions.
