European Commission Recommendation includes UBL

The European Commission's Multi-stakeholder Forum on eInvoicing unanimously approved a Recommendation calling for the Universal Business Language (UBL) Invoice to be considered in the European Standard on core invoice semantic. The Recommendation names OASIS as one of the "international organisations working on data models that cover the requirements of different industries and sectors; they are recognized and accepted globally and their standards are adopted by many actors within both the private and public sector".

Vote begins on UBL 2.1 as an OASIS Standard

From:  Jon Bosak, Co-chair OASIS UBL Technical Committee
Date:  2013-10-22

Five years of development to extend the OASIS Universal Business Language wrap up this month in a vote among the OASIS member organizations to approve the latest revision, UBL 2.1, as an OASIS Standard.

SUMMARY

UBL 2.1 entering membership vote phase

The OASIS UBL 2.1 Candidate OASIS Standard public review ended October 15, 2013 with no comments requesting changes or describing errors.  This is a tremendous achievement and is evidence of no-one finding technical faults in the work product.  Over five public reviews the issues discovered were addressed and the end result is shown to be acceptable.

This qualifies the specification to progress to the next phase of OASIS membership voting on OASIS UBL 2.1 becoming an OASIS Standard.
