Element information

Content

• Sequence [1..1]
  1. Process [1..1]    The Process verb is used to request processing of the associated noun by the receiving application or business to party. In a typical external exchange scenario a Process BOD is considered to be a legally binding message. For example, if a customer sends a ProcessPurchaseOrder BOD to a supplier and the supplier acknowlegdes with a positive AcknowledgePurchaseOrder, then the customer is obligated to fullfil the agreement, unless of course other BODs are allowed to cancel or change the original order.
  2. CommercialInvoice [1..*]    A Commercial Invoice is not an Invoice docment rather it is a shipment document between a shipper and carrier. A Commercial Invoice document identifies and describes a specific collection of goods to be transported by a carrier and delivered to one or more business partner destinations. A Commercial Invoice document represents the extent and content of "transportation work" to be done by the carrier. For transportation efficiency, a Commercial Invoice document typically consolidates deliveries to multiple destinations within a certain geographic region and may provide carrier routing instructions to each delivery stop.
