To provide a smooth migration path towards ‘Digital Paper’ by Aligning data elements across Cross-Border Trade, Transport, International Payments, Customs & other Regulatory ‘Documents’ Delivering the electronic successor of the paper-based UN Layout Key (UNECE Recommendation No 1) Increasing achievable semantic interoperability through reuse of the UNCEFACT Core Component Librarymapped to the UNTDED Enablingsyntactic interoperability across Core Components, EDIFACT, XML, document layouts and box completion guidelines Providing maintainability through future versions Development of Customisation Methodology to allow user configurability by contextual refinement Objectives UNeDocs: Holistic Information Framework for Single Window
A Business Process Model illustrating where the UNeDocs documents fit into the operation of the International Supply Chain based on the UNCEFACT International Supply Chain Reference Model. A ISO 15000 Part 5 compliant Common Data Model based on candidate or published UNCEFACT Core Components that are linked to the UNTDED/ISO 7372. Methodology for the presentation of data contained in electronic data exchanges onto electronic or paper forms and the update of UNLK to become eUNLK. For each document the project will develop: oA class diagram and document structure oThe paper and electronic, re-usable layout description of the documentbased on the UN Layout Key oBox Completion Guideline oXML profiles oUN/EDIFACT message implementation guide Delivers... · · · · UNeDocs: Holistic Information Framework for Single Window
