30 day Public Review for Business Document Envelope V1.1 – ends May 20th
The OASIS Business Document Exchange (BDXR) TC [1] members have recently approved a Committee Specification Draft (CSD) and submitted it for 30-day public review:
Business Document Envelope Version 1.1
Committee Specification Draft 01 / Public Review Draft 01
30 March 2016
Overview:
This specification defines a business-oriented artefact enveloping a payload of one or more business documents or other artefacts with supplemental semantic information about the collection of payloads as a whole. This is distinct from any transport-layer infrastructure envelope that may be required to propagate documents from one system to another. A business document envelope describes contextual information important to the sender and receiver about the payloads, without having to modify the payloads in any fashion.
About the TC:
The OASIS BDXR TC advances an open standards framework to support public e-procurement and e-invoicing. The group defines specifications for a lightweight and federated messaging infrastructure that supports a 4-corner model for the secure and reliable exchange of electronic documents. Wherever possible, the TC specifications are based on profiles of existing standards from OASIS and elsewhere. BDXR TC members also coordinate the submission of new requirements as use cases for expanded functionality.
All those involved in e-procurement and e-invoicing are invited to participate in the BDXR TC, including public and private sector agencies, enterprises, solution providers, consultants, and researchers. E-payment actors including financial institutions, associations and payment networks should also be represented in this work.
Public Review Period:
The public review starts 21 April 2016 at 00:00 UTC and ends 20 May 2016 at 23:59 UTC.
