Subject: Re: [ubl-dev] UBL and ISO 20022 mapping


Hello Marcel,

for an ontology that is mapping UBL with other standards you could review the OASIS SET TC and their deliverables.

UBL 2.0 and CII 2.0 can be mapped through the CCTS semantic annotations available into their XSDs, but I have nothing ready for this.
There have been several attempts to make a gap analysis or map between these formats but a real and precise XPATH map is not available I think.

ISO 20022 : eFinance = UBL : eBusiness

The upcoming UBL 2.1 can be used together ISO 20022 for end-to-end Financial Supply Chain applications in a complementary way, but they are different kernels.

The young ISO20022 invoice is a banking thing thousand miles from real invoice needs around the globe.

Semantically ISO20022 and UBL are very different as they come from different repositories.  UBL is an excellent ISO15000-5 (CCTS) implementation and its bricks are harmonized and persisted in the UN/CCL library.

The "CII" Invoice is a different assembly of the UN/CCL semantic bricks, but I think UBL has a better structure.  (two different walls made up several common bricks).

CII is more a semantic work used to fit the European requirements but it can be implemented using any other CCTS-based language like UBL, GS1, CDX, PDX, ...
It could be more hard to map other proprietary formats, EDIFACT, so on...
UBL 2.0 Invoice is compatible with the core CII set requested by EU.

I would suggest to keep your eyes on the European e-procurement project named "PEPPOL", that is an implementation of the CEN WS/BII Abstract model for e-procurement using the UBL 2.0 syntax.

PEPPOL implements the core invoice model described by CEN-BII.

You will note these days that the shift is provided by using mature XML languages for business like UBL, that can be easely customized (reduced) and profiled to fit several industry needs.

I would like to present you an analogy with the past:

Standard Syntax Standard Abstract Profiles User Group Implementations
UN/EDIFACT
none EANCOM, SMDG, ITIGG, ...
UBL CEN/WS BII PEPPOL
CII CII ???
ISO-20022 none EPC, CGI

As you note both CEN-BII and CII are abstract models that are implemented through user groups.

Hope this is of any help.
