I am not sure why we ned to say "unqualified ccts:BasicBusinessInformationEntityProperty" and "qualified ccts:BasicBusinessInformationEntityProperty".

isn't the whole idea of having a thing called ccts:BasicBusinessInformationEntityProperty meant to distinguish it from a ccts:BasicBusinessInformationEntity? what makes a ccts:BasicBusinessInformationEntityProperty is that it is unqualified (it is a ccts:BasicBusinessInformationEntity without the qualifier part of the name).

i would expect that is we are creating a CBC for re-usable types then all ccts:BasicBusinessInformationEntityProperty should be in thier even if they are only used with qualification in the documents and aggregations.

in answer to your question about how many definitions are needed - a quick sort shows about 20-30 fall into this category.

Maybe change that to:

    "[XXX] Every unqualified ccts:BasicBusinessInformationEntityProperty MUST be defined in the CBC."

Are there many BBIE's like "PostalZone", where we don't use (don't have) a related unqualified BBIE Property?

In those cases, does anyone have a problem with defining, for example, a 'ZoneType' in the CBC which will be used by 'PostalZone' where it is declared in the CAC? It would, obviously, simplify the rules.

The other option would be to create another rule something like:

    "[XXX] Every qualified ccts:BasicBusinessInformationEntityProperty which does not have a corresponding unqualified ccts:BasicBusinessInformationEntityProperty MUST be defined in the CBC."

FYI: Unfortunately, I will not be on the call until ~1100 Eastern.
