## UN Layout Key

- Cross-Sector Transaction Data

- Sector Specific Detail e.g.
- order line items, goods items ...

- Document Function Specific

## Combined Approach

- Paper Document
- aligned to UN Layout Key

- Electronic Document Exchange
- XML or UN/EDIFACT

- Electronic Edit Form

## UNeDocs Project

- Overview:
- To facilitate international trade and electronic transfer of data for cross border trade by developing, publishing and maintaining a coordinated set of international standards including the UN/CEFACT Trade Reference Model, a comprehensive cross-domain data model, UN/EDIFACT and XML document structures, document presentation methodologies and box completion guidelines.
- To enable the development of simple low-cost solutions to support the generation and exchange of standardised paper and/or electronic international trade documents by implementing existing standards and recommendations.

## Align International Cross Border Data across Customs – Regulatory Documents – Transport and Trade
Provide smooth migration path towards Digital Paper
Increased semantic interoperability through reuse of UN/CEFACT Core Component Library
Electronic successor of the paper-based UN Layout Key (the UN Rec No 1 Unsung Hero)
Combining ISO 15000-5 Core Components, EDI, XML, document presentation and box completion guidelines
Easy migration to newer versions
Extensibility by user restrictions

- UNeDocs Objectives

## Project Deliverables

- 
- 
- 
- 

- 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 (CCTS) 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 documents the project will develop:
- o       A class diagram and document structure
- o      The paper and electronic, re-usable layout description of
-       the document based on the UN Layout Key
- o       Box Completion Guideline
- o       XML profiles
- o       UN/EDIFACT message implementation guide

## UNLK Form Families

- Trade Documents – Quotation, Order, Invoice etc.

- Materials Management Documents – Despatch Advice, Pick List,
- 	Packing List etc.

- Transport Documents – Bill of Lading, Shipping Instructions etc.

- Customs Documents – Export, Import, Transit Declarations,
-  	Cargo Reports etc.

- Other Regulatory Documents – Cert of Origin,
-  	DGN etc.

## UNeDocs for Single Windows

- UN/CEFACT CC Library

- UNeDocs ABIE Library

- It is time for new types of documents – not just mirrors of  the existing paper world.
- The UNeDocs reuse concept based on the UN/CEFACT Core component Library is the foundation for new document types whilst also providing legacy support and a migration path between the two.

- Trade

- Insurance

- Customs &
- OGAs

- Transport

- Materials
- Management

## The Standards Map

| CCTS (ISO 15000-5), UMM |  | eUNLK TS |
| --- | --- | --- |
| CC Library, UNTDED (ISO 7372) |  |  |
| Contextualised Data Models |  | eUNLK Meta eForms  |
| NDR: XSD, EDIFACT instance production rules |  | ‘NDR‘: eUNLK instance production rules |
| XSD (as of different NDR), EDIFACT Migs |  | FO, Stylesheets, Others, Xforms (if usable) |
|  |  |  |

- (CEFACT) Registry

- Please note: Black – exists. Blue - does not yet exist

- Separation data and structures from presentation – the concept

## Summary 

- A combination of cross-border business requirements collected from the TBG domain Working Groups collated in conjunction with the WCO, paper-based Convention stakeholders and the Trade Facilitation work of TBG15.
- A harmonised, document-focussed reuse of the UN/CEFACT ISO 11179 compliant Core Component Library plus pre-harmonised contributions to the further development of the Library.
- The development of coordinated implementation specifications for paper, eforms, UN/EDIFACT and XML document formats and structures.
- Implementation and piloting of a generic methodology to develop, to reuse, to inhertit and to contextualize.
