If you previously configured interaction plans along with their destinations in Interaction Plans Architect, some of the data from your interaction plans will have been migrated into Interaction Plan Manager. The name of the migrated interaction plan will be the line or named route of the original plan, followed by a hyphen, and then the service name of the original plan.
