More missing information in UBL 2.1 PRD2 spreadsheets

["G. Ken Holman" <gkholman@CraneSoftwrights.com>]

Hi, folks,

In my NDR work today I noted the following problems with the 
spreadsheets.  These problems were not reported in an earlier version 
of my model checker because I didn't think to check for absent definitions:

UBL-CommonLibrary-2.1 Row 371 (Consumption. Details):
 Missing the definition
UBL-CommonLibrary-2.1 Row 591 (Delivery Terms. Amount):
 Missing the definition
UBL-CommonLibrary-2.1 Row 610 (Despatch. Guaranteed_ Despatch Date. Date):
 Missing the definition
UBL-CommonLibrary-2.1 Row 611 (Despatch. Guaranteed_ Despatch Time. Time):
 Missing the definition
UBL-CommonLibrary-2.1 Row 613 (Despatch. Instructions. Text):
 Missing the definition
UBL-CommonLibrary-2.1 Row 664 (Document Reference. Result Of Verification):
 Missing the definition
UBL-CommonLibrary-2.1 Row 698 (Energy Water Supply. Details):
 Missing the definition
UBL-CommonLibrary-2.1 Row 792 (External Reference. Hash Algorithm 
Method. Text):
 Missing the definition
UBL-CommonLibrary-2.1 Row 883 (Goods Item. Chargeable_ Quantity. Quantity):
 Missing the definition
UBL-CommonLibrary-2.1 Row 884 (Goods Item. Returnable_ Quantity. Quantity):
 Missing the definition
UBL-CommonLibrary-2.1 Row 1191 (Monetary Total. Payable_ Alternative 
Amount. Amount):
 Missing the definition
UBL-CommonLibrary-2.1 Row 1343 (Payment Terms. Exchange Rate):
 Missing the definition
UBL-CommonLibrary-2.1 Row 1554 (Renewal. Details):
 Missing the definition
UBL-CommonLibrary-2.1 Row 1563 (Request For Quotation Line. Security 
Classification Code. Code):
 Missing the definition
UBL-CommonLibrary-2.1 Row 1628 (Service Provider Party. Service Type 
Code. Code):
 Missing the definition
UBL-CommonLibrary-2.1 Row 1629 (Service Provider Party. Service Type. Text):
 Missing the definition
UBL-CommonLibrary-2.1 Row 2100 (Transport Event. Location):
 Missing the definition

I'm assuming the definition should be mandatory, regardless of how 
obvious the element name might be, though I don't believe this is 
mandated in the current UBL NDR.  I will be pushing for it to be 
mandatory in the next NDR.

I'm in the process of updating my model checker to include this 
check, but thought it best to bring this immediately to the attention 
of PSC and TSC members so they can include these problems in their 
respective issues lists.

I'm not nearly done my NDR work, so if I find any more problems with 
the existing spreadsheets, I'll post them to the list.
