Project 1727 - ISO/IEC 15944-4:2007 - Information technology
-- Business Operational View
-- Part 4: Business transaction scenarios -- Accounting and economic ontology
This part of ISO/IEC 15944 provides a set of UML class diagrams and conceptual
explanations that
circumscribe the Open-edi Business Transaction Ontology. It explains
the mechanics of a business
transaction state machine — the procedural component of an OeBTO —
and the (internal) constraint
component of OeBTO — its repository for business rules.
This part of ISO/IEC 15944 addresses collaborations among independent
trading partners as defined in
ISO/IEC 15944-1. This part of ISO/IEC 15944 applies to both binary
collaborations (buyer and seller) and
mediated collaborations (buyer, seller, third-party). The ontological
features described herein propose
standards only for the BOV — that is, the business aspects of business
transactions as they are defined in
ISO/IEC 15944-1.
