Subject: Re: [ubl] Proposal for UBL 2.0 Extended Procurement Process Model
Dear Tim McGrath, Thank you very much for your sending extended procurement process model. I have read your document. The followings are my comments. 1. My overall impressions to your proposal - The party definitions (Section 2.1) defines Business function, Role, Description, Example, Synonyms , Sends, and Receives. This table is arranged well, and very understandable for readers. - These additional business process and business documents will be necessary for the procurement business process. 2. Comments regarding the miner mistakes (maybe), and editing issues. (1) About the contents in the table (Page 7) - In the line (Business function: Supplier, Role: Despatch), there is no contents in the 'Receives' row. I think that 'Receipt Advice' should be added in this cell. (2) The characters of the diagram 'Fulfillment' in Page 12 are too small for readers to read. Please make the characters more bigger. (3) About the End Notes The End Notes says "1 Where a customer knows-----". This note is difficult for readers to understand where this note referring. This note will be changed to "self billed invoice 1: Where a customer knows-----", this would be more understandable for readers. (4) About the Document overview (Section 3.6) If the information of 'Submitter' and 'Receiver' will be added as a column in this table, it would be more understandable for readers. For example: Document : Catalogue Submitter: Seller Party Receiver: Catalogue Managing Party 3. Comments regarding the next document assembly stage. More 10 business documents will be added to the current 8 UBL business documents. Finally, the number of UBL business documents will be 18. Furthermore, many common reusable BIEs will be designed. If the additional common reusable BIEs will be added to the current Reusable BIEs (V1.0), I am afraid that the extended reusable library would become much bigger and difficult for users to manage and reuse. Even though these extended business processes and business documents are in the procurement process, the common reusable BIEs would be better to be modular to get better handling. For example: The procurement common reusable BIEs will be categorized and divided to the following 3 modules (spreadsheets), it would be much better to handle. - Sourcing common BIEs - Ordering (and Fulfillment) common BIEs (almost same to the current Reusable BIEs) - Billing and Payment common BIEs Best Regards, Yukinori Saito ------------------------------------------- Yukinori Saito Fuji Electric Information Service Co., Ltd.

The document describes the overall process model proposed for UBL 2.0 procurement as well as the principle of modeling Parties and their roles in this process. Please review this document this week as we would like to sign off its content, add it to the UBL 2.0 Issues List and move into the design and document assembly stage next week.
