ATTENDANCE:

ISSUES DISCUSSED:

1. Transport Data Model discussion:

a. It was highlighted that the attributes names were taken from the UBL1.0 library.

b. The Transport data model should strictly represent Transport Core Components.

c. To remove “Certificate of Origin” component from the Transport core component, and to draw a separate data model for Certificate of Origin doc. Likewise for the other 3 trade documents (‘Forwarding Instruction’, ‘Bill of Lading’ and ‘Waybill’), a separate data model will be prepared and link with Transport core components.

d. “GoodsItem” component is missing some more attributes. To amend to include the full list of attributes according to the COML latest data model.

e. To rename ‘Delivery’ component back to ‘Arrival’ as there is a component with the same name (“Delivery”) in UBL 1.0.

f. To take note on the naming standard and convention of the way the data model is prepared in terms of how attributes and symbols are being described.

g. Digital Signature is dependent on business processes. Thus, it is not too appropriate to include it within the Transport data model, and to leave it declared at the business document level e.g. Certificate of Origin data model level.

2. Next meeting will be a full day face-to-face meeting at CrimsonLogic Singapore premises, on the 20^th October 2005, to speed up work to be done to meet the timeline for UBL2.0. There will be no tele-conference call during this time. The agenda for next meeting on 20^th Oct 2005 will be sent to subcommittee in a separate email.
