Subject: Re: [ubl-comment] Invitation to comment on Universal Business Language v2.3 from the UBL TC - ends September 2nd
My code takes that ZIP and extracts the RT xsds and builds the scala classes that to handle the content of the XML. So everything comes from that ZIP.
I then have a viewer which uses those scala classes to load a file which the user chooses. I have expanded the ZIP in to its own (1 per version of the ZIP) directory structure, and then loaded each example into the viewer. All of them loaded except these two.
When the classes load the XML they load it with schema validation, using the RT xsds extracted from the ZIP at the start of this process.
However the viewer is a manual process, and thus subject to human error - which I guess is what must have happened, because I now can not find the error, they all load (except PriorInformationNotice because my common code always insists on an ID).
So I guess we can mark this down my mistook. Sorry to raise a false alarm.

Hi David
Thanks always for your diligent reviewing! The TC did review and approve resolutions to all comments, as recorded here: https://www.oasis-open.org/committees/document.php?document_id=67718&wg_abbrev=ubl
However, upon further examination we were not able to reproduce the validation errors with the two examples (Goods Certificate and Goods Item Passport). Could you check that you are using the correct versions (XMLs and XSDs) please? The CSD03 version is published here: https://docs.oasis-open.org/ubl/csd03-UBL-2.3/UBL-2.3.zip
Best regards,
Kenneth

There are still problems with the examples. Two of them will not load with schema validation.
1) UBL-GoodsCertificate-2.3-Example.xml
lineNumber: 299; columnNumber: 29; cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element '{"urn:oasis:names:specification:ubl:schema:xsd:CommonBasicComponents-2":AcceptanceIndicator}'. One of '{"urn:oasis:names:specification:ubl:schema:xsd:CommonBasicComponents-2":Description, "urn:oasis:names:specification:ubl:schema:xsd:CommonBasicComponents-2":Note, "urn:oasis:names:specification:ubl:schema:xsd:CommonAggregateComponents-2":ValidityPeriod, "urn:oasis:names:specification:ubl:schema:xsd:CommonAggregateComponents-2":IssuerParty}' is expected.
2) UBL-GoodsItemPassport-2.3-ExampleIssued.xml
lineNumber: 6; columnNumber: 18; cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element '{"urn:oasis:names:specification:ubl:schema:xsd:CommonBasicComponents-2":StatusCode}'. One of '{"urn:oasis:names:specification:ubl:schema:xsd:CommonBasicComponents-2":IssueTime, "urn:oasis:names:specification:ubl:schema:xsd:CommonBasicComponents-2":Note, "urn:oasis:names:specification:ubl:schema:xsd:CommonBasicComponents-2":VersionID, "urn:oasis:names:specification:ubl:schema:xsd:CommonBasicComponents-2":ExportReasonCode, "urn:oasis:names:specification:ubl:schema:xsd:CommonBasicComponents-2":ExportReason, "urn:oasis:names:specification:ubl:schema:xsd:CommonAggregateComponents-2":ValidityPeriod, "urn:oasis:names:specification:ubl:schema:xsd:CommonAggregateComponents-2":IssuerParty, "urn:oasis:names:specification:ubl:schema:xsd:CommonAggregateComponents-2":HolderParty}' is expected.
The final problem, and much the most serious, is with PriorInformationNotice. I think I raised this before, but I think it is worth revisiting.
In all other root documents, the ID field is mandatory. Here it is optional. Without an ID you can not create a DocumentReference, and thus ApplicationResponse, DocumentStatus and DocumentStatusRequest are all useless.
I realise that this is an old (pre-2.30) document, but at least can we have a note somewhere that says that this field should be present even if formally it is not required. I only noticed this because the I have a base class for all my UBL objects, and this is passed into the constructor for DocumentReference objects - I then strip the fields in this base class from each object and include them by inheritance. So the two examples pass schema validation, but my code will not load them as the base class has them as required.
At the very least there needs to be a note in the documentation saying that if you do not provide an ID then DocumentReferences, ApplicationResponses, DocumentStatuses and DocumentStatusRequests will not be able to be generated and so an ID should be provided. I could make ID optional in my base class, and simply not generate a DocumentReference if no ID is present, and use the schema to ensure that ID is present where needed, but its absence renders the object so useless I am minded to leave it as it (i.e. mandatory) and to reject any incoming object which leaves it out.

OASIS Members and other interested parties,
We are pleased to announce that Universal Business Language Version 2.3 from the UBL TC [1] is now available for public review and comment. This is the third public review for Universal Business Language v2.3.
UBL is the leading interchange format for business documents. It is designed to operate within a standard business framework such as ISO/IEC 15000 (ebXML) to provide a complete, standards-based infrastructure that can extend the benefits of existing EDI systems to businesses of all sizes. The European Commission has declared UBL officially eligible for referencing in tenders from public administrations, and in 2015 UBL was approved as ISO/IEC 19845:2015.
Specifically, UBL provides:
- A suite of structured business objects and their associated semantics expressed as reusable data components and common business documents.
- A library of schemas for reusable data components such as Address, Item, and Payment, the common data elements of everyday business documents.
- A set of schemas for common business documents such as Order, Despatch Advice, and Invoice that are constructed from the UBL library components and can be used in generic procurement and transportation contexts.
UBL v2.3 is a minor revision to v2.2 that preserves backwards compatibility with previous v2.# versions. It adds five new document types, bringing the total number of UBL business documents to 86.
The specification documents and related files are available here:
