Mark,
Thank you for your comment and setting me straight. I must confess that I am not very into XML and just jumping into either the UBL or the UNCEFACT NDR seems quiite ominous. Could you share a little more insight into this? Thanks
Andy

-Andy and Ken,
You need to read the UBL and UN/CEFACT NDRs to
understand why the SCs are not present or required in the UDT. This
is a deliberate action and not a mistake. Further, the CCT schema is
non-normative and should not be used in your deliberations.
Kind Regards,
Mark
I guess I
should have asked first if the ccl8b spreadsheets were also incomplete. UDTs are
included in the spreadsheets as a separate sheet....It seems that if they
aren't in the spreadsheets, then its not TMGs problem but TBGs
problem....

possible use in 09A. Per Andy's suggestion in the Pacific call, rather than work
from scratch I've edited the UnqualifiedDataType_7p0.xsd file found in
D08B_draft_20090422.zip that Andy gave me. Thanks for the direction, Andy. The
UnqualifiedDataType_7p0_mod.xsd file is attached in a Zip file (rename .zzz to
.zip if you haven't already made the file association in your system. It is
labeled with the version 20090513-0220z. I've annotated at the top of the file
all the changes I've made. All the names and descriptions were copied and pasted
from CCTS V2.01 table 8-2. Note that I've suggested changing one of the type
names, IDType to IdentifierType, as that what we've used in UBL 2.0 ... but
really that change isn't important. Since we are generating new schemas for UBL
2.1 we can just as easily point to IDType rather than IdentifierType and still
have UBL 2.0 instances validate with UBL 2.1. I just made the note in case it
was an oversight on the part of UN/CEFACT abbreviating the object class as well
as the other components of the dictionary entry name. I've also added *all* of
the supplementary components and not just the ones we need for instance-level
metadata identification. So with the addition of these supplementary components
we can now support the use cases identified for UBL 2.1. Please review the
attachment ASAP and let me know of any changes you'd like to see me make. Once
comments are addressed we'll send this to UN/CEFACT ASAP in order to have it
considered for the upcoming "09A" release. If we can get them to release this as
part of their package, then we'll use their version unmodified in UBL 2.1.
Thanks for your input! . . . . . . . . . . . . Ken Here are the excerpts from
