We show that it is possible to transform any given
LPO ordering constraint $C$ into a finite equivalent set of constraints
$S$ for which a special kind of solutions can be obtained.
This allows to compute the equalities that follow from ordering
constraints,
and to decide e.g.\ whether an {\em ordering constrained equation\/}
is a tautology.
Another application we develop here
is a method to check ordered rewrite systems
for (ground) confluence.
