development of
       schemas for UBL 1.1.  Produce the most appropriate spreadsheet of 
those
       changes -and how much can be produced in EDIFIX and how much will 
require
       manual manipulation.

4. Content work session
As we had the presence of Saito-san it was suggested we concentrate of 
the JPLSC ECALGA requirements and use the session to get further 
clarification of the requirements.  The following points were discussed:

* ConsignmentIndicator - UBL 1.1 will support consignment but not using
      'ConsignmentIndicator'.

* SupplyID - Situation where the order contains only a placeholder and 
another
      transaction where the goods are fully described. Saito-san will 
provide more
      information in 2-3 weeks.

* ContractConditionID or ContractConditionCode - Recommendation agree to 
item 3.

* ItemName - ItemName is essential to the JPLSC. 

The remaining items and the revised process model will be discussed next 
week.
