Comparing resonant soft x-ray scattering (RSXS) experiments and realistic many-body calculations, the nature of the electronic crystal formed in the low-temperature phase of La7/8Sr1/8MnO3 is investigated. The analysis of the experimental data implies that the modulation of the Mn-valence must be very small and that the detected Mn-ordering is mainly of orbital nature. The emerging picture of manganese orbital order, which is coupled to charge and orbital order of the O 2p-states, seems to be a general feature of electronically ordered manganites.
