Subject: Re: [ubl-dev] Question regarding item specification in Catalogue


There are two places where one specifies properties for an item: those that are properties of all examples of the item, and those that are specific to a given instance of the item.

I would think that the name used to embroider a shirt would be an example of something specific to a given instance of the item:

Catalogue
http://docs.oasis-open.org/ubl/os-UBL-2.1/mod/summary/reports/UBL-AllDocuments-2.1.html#Table_Catalogue.Details
/ cac:CatalogueLine
http://docs.oasis-open.org/ubl/os-UBL-2.1/mod/summary/reports/UBL-AllDocuments-2.1.html#Table_CatalogueLine.Details
/ cac:Item
http://docs.oasis-open.org/ubl/os-UBL-2.1/mod/summary/reports/UBL-AllDocuments-2.1.html#Table_Item.Details
/ cac:ItemInstance
http://docs.oasis-open.org/ubl/os-UBL-2.1/mod/summary/reports/UBL-AllDocuments-2.1.html#Table_ItemInstance.Details
/ cac:AdditionaItemProperty
http://docs.oasis-open.org/ubl/os-UBL-2.1/mod/summary/reports/UBL-AllDocuments-2.1.html#t-CommonLibrary-1087

And I would think the generic properties would go here:

Catalogue
http://docs.oasis-open.org/ubl/os-UBL-2.1/mod/summary/reports/UBL-AllDocuments-2.1.html#Table_Catalogue.Details
/ cac:CatalogueLine
http://docs.oasis-open.org/ubl/os-UBL-2.1/mod/summary/reports/UBL-AllDocuments-2.1.html#Table_CatalogueLine.Details
/ cac:Item
http://docs.oasis-open.org/ubl/os-UBL-2.1/mod/summary/reports/UBL-AllDocuments-2.1.html#Table_Item.Details
/ cac:AdditionaItemProperty
http://docs.oasis-open.org/ubl/os-UBL-2.1/mod/summary/reports/UBL-AllDocuments-2.1.html#t-CommonLibrary-1056

CAVEAT: I'm an angle-bracket guy and not a business analyst but I try to answer questions like these in order to learn more about the business semantics. If anyone on the list would like to question what I've suggested, please speak up! I'm only speaking for myself in these kinds of answers.

I hope this helps.

Hi,

I've looked around and haven't been able to find any guidance or examples so I'm hoping someone might be able to help.

We are currently looking at using the UBL Catalogue and for so far I have been able to represent the scenarios we currently have. There is one scenario that I am having trouble representing. We have products that require additional information in order to be purchased. For example, a shirt might have embroidery and require the name of the person to be specified. In looking through the components of the Item element though I am not seeing how this could be represented.

Any help or guidance on where I could look or how this might be represented would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
John
