RE: [ubl-ssc] Codelist dependencies

Stephen,

Schema can be autogenerated from FX data models IF the spreadsheets used to
create those models are complete. 

The current spreadsheets are not up to date in this regard. This was noted
in the UBL minutes some time ago and an action item to correct them in this
regard needs to be assigned.

It should also be noted that it appears that the restriction of enumerations
in codelists requires creation of a qDT schema module. The current draft of
the UBL NDR rules state the following:

The ubl:QualifiedDatatype is defined by specifying restrictions on the
1123 ccts:CoreComponentType that forms the basis of the
ccts:UnqualifiedDatatype.
1124 To ensure the consistency of UBL qualified Datatypes
(ubl:QualifiedDatatypes)
1125 with the UBL modularity and reuse goals requires creating a single
schema module that
1126 defines all ubl:QualifiedDatatypes.
1127 [SSM18] A schema module defining all UBL Qualified Datatypes MUST be
created.
1128 The ubl:QualifiedDatatypes must be based upon the 
1129 ccts:UnqualifiedDatypes.
1130 [SSM20] The UBL Qualified Datatypes schema module MUST import the 
1131 ccts:UnQualifiedDatatypes schema module.
[CTD20] A qdt:QualifiedDataType MUST be based on an unqualified data type
1706 and add some semantic and/or technical restriction to the unqualified
data
1707 type.

It would certainly seem that the restriction of enumerations in a codelist
specified in a uDT add semantics or is a technical restriction of the base
uDT code type.

How will users create the qDT schema module using the new codelist
methodology and genericode approach? I do not see any reference to the qDT
schema module in Ken Holman's methodology paper. Am I missing something? 

Regards,
Sylvia

Could I just ask of David and Sylvia whether there are any extra pieces of
information such as supplementary component values still needed for schema
generation. Is all the necessary inmformation in the model and/or the
spreadhseets and does it appear to be up to date? Is there anything else
like this we might need to provide prior to the plenary. If need be we can
discuss any of this at the Wednesday TC meeting this week.
Thanks. 

All the best
