Subject: tax requirements
Sylvia I just want to record, having created some new BBIEs in the TaxCategory to satisfy the Tax XML TC additions, that I think we need further feedback from Tax XML TC about the following: The request was for both Rate (for which we already have TaxCategory.Percent) and a combination of TierRange and TierRate. Questions are: 1) given that there is already the TaxCategory.ID to identify (perhaps with a tax rate code, say) the tax rate which we have as TaxCategory.Percent, wouldn't the same TaxCategory.ID identify the TierRange? 2) wouldn't the TaxCategory.Percent then also cover the requirements for TierRate? In short: Do we need separate entities for Tiered taxes and taxes merely defined as a combination of an identifier or code (which could denote a 'tier range') and a rate (or percent)? I think we should try to not allow multiple ways to present data and so I hope we can avoid having both ID/Percent and TierRange/Percent and just keep ID/Percent which would cover both cases. Otherwise how would implementers know not to use the TierRange/Percent unless they need to and to use ID/Percent instead. It seems to me to make things too dependant on separate user guides. I do take the point that we may have cases where both ID/Percent and TierRange/Percent are needed to identify the same tax category but the way to do that would be to have something like TaxCategory/TaxIdentification(1..n)/ID TaxCategory/TaxIdentification(1..n)/Percent etc or some other name for this intermediate 'TaxIdentification' container - if it is just the requirement that there be a means to specify two or more sets of criteria to identify a tax rate. The definition of the multiple occurance TaxIdentification container could explain that there may be more than one set of criteria to define a TaxCategory for a particular TaxSubTotal.

I've added too an initial version of what used to be called the specialized datatypes spreadsheet but which we can now call the qualified datatypes after an NDR decision to align with the name used by ATG2. The updated 'additions' spreadsheet is also updated and included - now more as a change log than as a task list. We hope today to progress with the assembly of the new documents, having agreed almost all of the BIE changes.
