Re: [ubl-dev] OrderableUnitFactorRate usage and determination

Hi Danny,

I knew that would come ;-)

Being heavily involved developing OIOUBL I don't think I'm the right person to judge between the two interpretations :-)

As far as I remember, the OIOUBL interpretation - as described in the OIOUBL guide Prices - has been submitted to CENBII as feedback during the hearing process, but as you point out, the current CENBII interpretation is different.

Maybe we could get an "official" CENBII comment on that!?

Thanks!

Best regards,

Finn.

Thanks Finn,

THat makes sense and corresponds with the explanation in

http://www.oioubl.info/guidelines/en/OIOUBL_GUIDE_PRICES.pdf

BaseQuantity * OrderableUnitFactorRate = the quantity specified by Quantity@unitCode

PriceAmount / BaseQuantity * (BaseQuantity * OrderableUnitFactorRate) = the price of one

orderable unit.

PriceAmount * OrderableUnitFactorRate = the price of one orderable unit.

I have also been looking at the definition in the CEN/BII guidelines on Totals.

http://www.cen.eu/cwa/bii/specs/Profiles/Guidelines/BII%20Guideline%2012%20-%20Totals%20v1.pdf

Chapter 5 says :

PriceAmount / Price BaseQuantity * OrderableUnitFactorRate = the price of one ordered unit.

Is this wrongly defined in the CEN/BII guideline? Because this results into an OUFR = 2,97

Danny

Hi Danny + all,

Yes this is quite complicated!

According to the rules within OIOUBL I actually think your OUFR = 0,0297

In OIOUBL, this must always be the case:

PriceAmount * OUFR = the price for one order unit.

1 plate has the weight of 2,97 KG

1 KG has the price of 2,05 EUR

1 plate then has the price of 6,0885 EUR (= the price for one order unit)

OUFR = the price for one order unit / PriceAmount

OUFR = 6,0885 / 205 = 0,0297

Hope this helps!

Best regards,

Finn.
