UBL 1.0 bugs that HISC will need to consider fixing:
(1) - should XPath files be added to 1.0 package or wait for 1.1?
- if there are any changes to the schema structures, the XPath
files will need to be regenerated
- there is no documentation for the XPath files if it is
decided they should be included
- this is only an addition due to an omission, it is not a change,
but the XPath files will be very useful to implementers
(2) - is the missing certification at the bottom of the invoice
mandatory?
- if so, is it important enough to add to 1.0 or wait for 1.1?
- this is only an addition due to an omission, it is not a change,
and there is some question as to whether or not it is really
needed
(3) - the specifications do not indicate what to do when
cbc:CountrySubentity is absent
- cbc:CountrySubentity is absent in sample XML files
- specification should change to indicate the use of
cac:CountrySubentityCode when cbc:CountrySubentity is
absent
- this is a fault as it does not properly handle the sample XML
(4) - the specifications do not indicate what to do when the
detailed address is absent, such as using the unstructured
address lines
- there are no absent detailed addresses in the samples, so this
is not something obvious in 1.0
- this is only an addition due to an omission, it is not a change
and has bigger implications regarding standardized address
processing that is probably outside of the scope of HISC and
should be documented as standard UBL practice of handling
partially-completed address information
I'm thinking only (3) is really important, but I'd like the assessment from
others regarding (1). I don't think (2) or (4) are important enough for a
revised UBL 1.0 and can wait for UBL 1.1, but that is only my own opinion.
I'm awaiting suggestions for other bugs from other members of HISC; none
have been received at this time.
