UBL 2.1 Status
- on 2014-03-24 OASIS Administration submitted OASIS UBL 2.1 to
JTC 1 for PAS processing
New documents for outsourcing warehousing
- Kees has begun a thread based on discussions minuted from previous
UBL committee teleconferences:
https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl/201403/msg00007.html
New document for party identification information
- useful for a list of one, such as a business card
- useful for a list of many, such as populating a list of parties
in an ERP system or other system
- useful for a list of many, such as directory maintenance, adding
or interchanging a list of parties
- Kees will post an example he is using in his company
JIRA tickets
- Ken has asked TC Administration to set up a JIRA project for UBL:
https://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/TCADMIN-1654
UBL Comment list submission
- Stephen Green has submitted a contribution for consideration:
https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl-comment/201403/msg00000.html
- for discussion, our UBL Customization document talks to the calculation
model:
http://docs.oasis-open.org/ubl/guidelines/UBL2-Customization1.0cs01.pdf
1.6 Calculation models
The UBL Technical Committee does not prescribe a calculation model
that governs how values in instances are calculated (for example,
the inclusion of allowances in a line extension amount). Any actual
implementation of UBL should document its calculation model via a
prose description or a formal description using, for example, the
methodology being developed by the OASIS Test Assertion Guidelines
Technical Committee.
- during the Pacific call we looked at the following excerpt from
Stephen's post as the issue to be addressed on which to base a
response:
However, if the subset does allow a document to include the
rounding value then its semantics and in particular its
calculation model will need to handle this as an issue. In
such a case, I think UBL needs to warn implementers, the
designers of the semantic subset need to be aware and make
it clear how such a document is to be handled.
- Ken to add a JIRA ticket (when the JIRA system is up) targeted to
any future project regarding UBL implementation guidelines or UBL
customization, requiring the authors to consider Stephen's
contribution and supplement, if needed, references to the importance
of documenting the calculation model associated with a deployment
of UBL
UBL TC next steps
- what promotional issues need to be addressed?
- UBL 2 is an organic thing that can be grown
- what do we do for implementation support?
- should we write a companion document of how to use the specification?
- industry-specific documentation?
- make it easier to find what is relevant without changing the actual
specification
- what about updating the International Data Dictionary?
- who can we find to help with this?
- how about another UBL International conference in order to
promote the release of UBL 2.1? Can anyone host this conference?
http://ublconference.com or http://ublconference.org
- perhaps an event in North America and in Europe in 2014
- Washington DC, Burlington MA (OASIS)?
- http://www.exchange-summit.com/ - Barcelona - October 2014
- BII - Paris in June? Frankfurt in September?
- Beijing June 2014 (JTC 1 SC32)?
- how about a Twitter feed of UBL adoption and announcements?
- what subject matter issues need to be addressed?
- more transportation co-ordination issues
- communications with transportation regulatory organizations
- what technical issues need to be addressed?
- are any schema changes needed?
- at the least we need to publish the NDR as soon as possible
- what educational materials need to be made available?
- how about YouTube videos regarding access to the UBL package?
TC CONCALL SCHEDULE
We are coming up to daylight savings time again, so please watch the
timings of calls in North America. I'm trying to keep the timings of
calls in Europe unchanged, since most members are from Europe, so the
time of the Atlantic calls in North America changes for three weeks.
The Pacific call takes place Tuesday evenings west of the Atlantic
Ocean. The time of the Pacific calls in North America is unchanged.
Next meetings:
2014-04-02 Pacific 00:00UTC/20:00EDT, Atlantic 14:00UTC/16:00CEST/10:00EDT
2014-04-09 Pacific 00:00UTC/20:00EDT, Atlantic 14:00UTC/16:00CEST/10:00EDT
2014-04-16 Pacific 00:00UTC/20:00EDT, Atlantic 14:00UTC/16:00CEST/10:00EDT
2014-04-23 Pacific 00:00UTC/20:00EDT, Atlantic 14:00UTC/16:00CEST/10:00EDT
Will anyone be requesting a leave of absence in the near future? For
privacy reasons, this discussion will be kept off of the minutes.
