Title: Re: [ubl-psc] UBL Issues

Tim

Been away at weekend...just got back.

I am expecting a meeting of the PSC at 09:00 BST today i.e. in about 10 minutes.  The agenda is brief, but the discussion will probably be longer.

Address the issues list and discuss the third public review.

 UBL Issues The following issues identified in the NES profiling exercise warrant discussion and resolution by the PSC at the telecon on 21st August.

 

  

Invoice Line

  

Item Instance is on Invoice Line;  consider whether Item Instance should only be used in the context of Item itself 

 

Period

  

Duration measure cannot be used in UBL: ISO 8601 is alpha and the UBL data type is a decimal

 

Document Reference

  

Why is copy indictor in Document Reference ?

 

Supplier Party

  

NES observation

  

SupplierParty.Shipping_Contact should be SupplierParty.Despatch_Party 

SupplierParty.Order_Contact should be SupplierParty.Seller_Contact

 

Personal observation

  

I think all three contact ASBIES should be removed from SupplierParty to make it the same in structure as CustomerParty; 

if Contact is required, it can be reached through the Party ASBIE

 

Payment Means

  

PaymentMeansCode description is wrong; it should be “The Payment Means expressed as a code”.

 

Item

  

Item Specification Document Reference is 0..1; should be 0..n

 

Item Instance 

  

Product Trace ID should be optional

 

Related Item

  

RelatedItemID should be the ID for the related item (?); the definition states “an ID for the relationship”

 

Lot Identification

  

the association to Lot Identification should should be in Item Instance, not in Item

 

Commodity classification

  

there should be an ASBIE to Classification Scheme inside Commodity Classification (?)
