Subject: New issues from Northern European Subset group
There is definitely
something wrong with the comment-page. I received a strange error message a
couple of hours after posting an issue. I re-post it here and perhaps Betty can
file it in the appropriate list.
After looking at Peters issue list I
see that my post is partly covered by one of Peter’s. Perhaps my suggestion
and description can give some further information.

European Subset Group
Regarding Specification:
UBL2.0
In the ongoing work within
the Northern European Subset group on e-procurement an issue has come up that we
need to find a solution for. We are developing and defining a subset for a
couple of common business processes and business rules. The problem, in a
nutshell, is that we can't, by just looking at a document instance, see what
business process/context the instance belongs to. We need to identify the
context by looking at the instance to decide what business rules (schematron),
subset schema and optionally what work flow to apply. The Small Business Subset
SC has developed a great method of defining context specific subsets, but the
document instance (e.g. the invoice) doesn't reflect it.
Suggested
solutions:
A new BIE called "Document
Context Identifier" of type Identifier is added on document level
(0..1).
By adopting the UN/CEFACT
context drivers or other suitable keys, an Identifier can be built.
Example:
For the Order to Invoice process
defined in the northern European subset, the identifier could be:
NES:OrderToInvoice (Geo political context + Business process
context)
Without this BIE, the only
solution (as we see it) is to define specific namespaces for every business
process and that will give a very negative impact on
interoperability.
