XML structures of eBIZ/TC Upstream documents (2018-1)

Introduction to the XML document template

The structure of the XML documents is the very prescriptive part of the eBIZ/TC Upstream framework: using the eBIZ/TC Upstream documents, the prescriptions must be completely respected about structure of the documents, names and coding, optionality or mandatory use of elements, meaning of each element.
Otherwise the documents could be not validable with the XML Schema (that are the only way to check the formal compliance of the documents) or could generate misunderstandings about the meaning of the message on the side of your partners.
The allowable customisations are about the use or not of a document or about the elements of the document that are declared 'optional'; they can be used to simplify the documents (not all the elements are always necessary).

The (template of) eBIZ/TC Upstream documents of each release are on www.ebiz.enea.it or www.moda-ml.org and are represented by:

Document Accessory Purchase Order Change
(Updated)
Description Order Change sent to the Garment Accessory Producer (Supplier) (allows to change destination, quantity, delivery date)
Release date 05/11/2018
Scope
The present guide has been issued to assist the companies of the Textile-Clothing sector in the implementation of the standard XML document type “GARMENT ACCESSORY PURCHASE ORDER CHANGE”, providing all the instruction required for its use in any context of e-commerce between Apparel or Fabric Producers and Garment Accessory Producers (Suppliers).
All the rules required for the construction and validation of the document are embedded into the specific XML-Schema, which is detailed in section "Implementation guide".
Generalities
The Apparel or the Fabric Producer sends an Order Change any time he must modify some conditions of his previous Order (eg. to cancel items not delivered in time) or amend errors (eg. invalid prices).
Basic function of the message is to replace an invalid Order with a valid Order, amending:

- suppliable quantities
- dates and places of delivery
- prices

The Order Change can show a number of lines different from the related Purchase Order, when variations/cancellations have occurred so as to create the splitting of an Order Line.
However the sum of the quantities of the lines in the Order Change (confirmed + varied + cancelled) must always not less than the sum of the quantities in the original Order.
When the quantity is change the original line must be splitted and the confimed amount and canceled amount should be explicited through the 'act' flag.
