#XHE 1.0 Migration and Implementation Guide v1.0 published by #BDXR TC

OASIS is pleased to announce publication of “XHE 1.0 Migration and Implementation Guide Version 1.0,” a Committee Note from the members of the OASIS Business Document Exchange (BDXR) TC [1].

Exchange Header Envelope (XHE) v1.0 [2] defines a business-oriented artefact either referencing (as a header) or containing (as an envelope) a payload of business documents or other artefacts. An exchange header envelope describes contextual information about the payloads, without having to modify the payloads in any fashion.

This Committee Note provides guidance and examples for users of the UN/CEFACT SBDH 1.3 and OASIS BDE 1.1 specifications migrating to XHE v1.0, as well as an analysis of the mapping of the business objects of these specifications to those of XHE. It also provides background information and implementation guidance to those new to header envelope standards and the XHE specification.

The Committee Note is available here:
