Core Components and More

International Standards – Core Components • Technical Specification – both ISO and UN/CEFACT • Goal is global registry • Thousands of Candidates submitted • Harmonization at UN/CEFACT

Core Components • Basic building block – a data element • No business context • Types – ACC = Aggregate Core Component § Like a segment in X 12 or EDIFACT – BCC = Basic Core Component § Like a data element in X 12 or EDIFACT – ASCC = Associate Core Component § Connects two ACCs Like a Party to an Address

Business Information Entities • Built from Core Components • Have Business Context (8 possible) – Like Trade, Purchasing, Switzerland • Types – ABIE = Aggregate Business Information Entity § Built from an ACC § Qualified with a meaningful term – BBIE = Basic Business Information Entity § Built from a BCC – ASBIE= Association Business Information Entity Connects two ABIEs § Built from an ASCC

UN/CEFACT Library Maintenance

Reorganisation Maintenance Procedure Upgrade • Clarify procedures to lower barriers for participation • Increase speed of library publication – Need to increase limited resources for library work • Need complete methodology for all aspects of library maintenance – Alignment of deletion/deprecation procedures • Include alignment / harmonisation of libraries and publication cycles in maintenance procedures

The Libraries Reference Models Code lists Three Libraries XML Schema EDIFACT CCL TDED Joint Maintenance Agency (UNECE and ISO TC 154) “Libraries” also refers to code lists and XML schema.

Maintenance Steps The following steps apply to all requests for changes to existing libraries/code lists/directories: • • • Change request(s) submitted and logged Technical assessment Semantic assessment Harmonization Update of libraries/code lists/directories Validation of updated libraries/code lists/directories – Quality Assurance (internal review) – Formal Validation (external review) • Publication
