SUMMARY

UBL 2.1 entering membership vote phase

News: Submitted by gkholman on Thu, 2013-10-17 14:57. Last updated on Tue, 2013-10-22 15:21.

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.

Use of GS1 GLN in CustomerParty

Forum topic: Submitted by danga on Fri, 2013-09-06 06:51. Last updated on Fri, 2013-09-06 06:51.

Dear all,

 

How can we indicate in CustomerParty that the IDs are Global Location numbers (EAN code) ?

 

We can see the CustomerAssignedAccountID, the SupplierAssignedAccountID and AdditionalAccountID but there is no way to indicate which scheme is used for the coding of these IDs.

Now I also looked at the UN/CEFACT and the CEN/BII specs. In the CEN/BII Core Data Model of the basic order these 3 IDs are even not used instead only the PartyIdentification is used.

AllowanceCharge on InvoiceLine

Forum topic: Submitted by feersels on Fri, 2013-08-30 14:08. Last updated on Fri, 2013-08-30 14:08.

Hi,

I have case where an AllowanceCharge is calculated on InvoiceLine level. As I found in the UBL documentation, the LineExtensionAmount must include any discounts or surcharges.

So, in my case, LineExtensionAmount = PriceAmount - AllowanceCharge discount + AllowanceCharge surcharge.

However, when I try to validate the generated XML file on OIOUBL's website, I get an error stating the PriceAmount should be the same as the LineExtensionAmount.

I'm not sure what's wrong here. Here is an extract of the XML-file:
