1. Introduction to OpenPeppol and BIS

This Peppol BIS (Business Interoperability Specification) is a result of work within Peppol Logistics Incubation Project.

This BIS provides a set of specifications for implementing a Peppol business process. The document is concerned with clarifying requirements for ensuring interoperability of pan-European Public eProcurement and provides guidelines for supporting these requirements and how to implement them.

Figure 1. Relationship between BII profiles and Peppol BIS

1.1. Background and objective

The Peppol BIS provides a set of specifications for implementing Peppol business documents. The specifications enable any company to issue electronic documents that fulfill legal and business processing requirement within the European Union and the EEA. It supports a subset of information that is used by most industries and enables users to issue documents (invoices, orders, despatch advices, etc…) that are valid for cross border trade within the European Union and the EEA.

The purpose of this document is to describe a common format for the Transport Execution Plan message in the European market, and to facilitate an efficient implementation and increased use of electronic collaboration regarding the transportation process based on this format.

1.2. Audience

The audience for this document is organizations wishing to be PEPPOL enabled for exchanging electronic business documents, and/or their ICT-suppliers.

These organizations may be:

Service providers
Contracting Authorities
Economic Operators
Software Developers

More specifically it is addressed towards the following roles:

ICT Architects
ICT Developers
Business Experts

For further information, please see PEPPOL BIS common text and introduction.

2. Principles and prerequisites

This chapter describes the principles and assumptions that underlie the use of the Transport Execution Plan.

The Transport Execution Plan is used to give instructions for the transportation services required for a consignment of goods to any party who is contracted to provide the transportation services. The Transport Execution Plan is initially sent from the Transport Service provider but may later be changed or cancelled by both the Transport User and the Transport Service Provider.

2.1. Business processes in scope

The processes covered by this profile are:

The Transport Execution Plan is sent by the Transport Service Provider to inform about the despatch and required delivery service for the goods being sent. Additionally, it can convey details about the goods for cross checking with the order and ultimately the Transport Execution Plan is used for declaring how the despatched goods are to be transported and how they are packed.
The Transport Execution Plan may be sent by either the Transport User or the Transport Service Provider to change an existing plan.
The Transport Execution Plan may be sent by either the Transport User or the Transport Service Provider to cancel an existing plan.

The main activities supported by this message are:

Full description of how the goods are packed. A delivery is taken to be a number of items that are despatched as a single consignment to a single delivery address.
The type of transport required for the despatch and delivery of the goods being shipped. The means of transport, routing and arrival details.

2.2. Parties and roles

The table below gives the definitions of the parties and roles involved in the Transport Execution Plan Only process.

2.3. Other important concepts

The table below gives the definitions of key concepts of the fulfillment process.

Term	Definition
Shipment	A contractual arrangement whereby an identifiable collection of goods items is to be transported from one party (usually a Supplier) to another party (usually a Customer).
Consignment	The transportation of an identifiable collection of goods items from one party (the Despatch Party) to another party (the Consignee) via one or more modes of transport.
Transport Handling Unit	A description of individual handling units in which the line items are packed.
Master Data	Master data is data which is generally static. Data such as locations or product item can be considered master data. The process of data alignment is the exchange, “up-front”, between trading partners of location and/or item data. In a GS1 context, master data is referenced by GS1 identification keys; the GLN – the global location number for locations, and the GTIN – global trade item number for item products.
Logistics Label	A logistics’ label has been applied to each of the pallets where the SSCCs are used and rendered as clear text numbers, address details and GS1 128 barcode. NB where multiple SSCCs are applied to logistics’ units on one pallet, there needs to be a GS1 logistics label applied and exterior of the pallet. The subordinate SSCCs on the individual logistics units should be packaged in such a way that they are not visible to the naked eye (in this scenario). For a full description of how to apply SSCCs and the GS1 Logistic label see link; http://www.gs1.eu/?page=&tudasbazis=60&lister=26

4. Semantic datatypes

Semantic data types are used to bridge the gap between the semantic concepts expressed by the information elements and the technical implementation. The semantic data types define the allowed value domain for the content, and any additional information components (attributes) needed in order to ensure its precise interpretation.

4.1. Primitive types

Semantic data type content may be of the following primitive types. These primitive types were taken from ISO 15000-5:2014, Appendix A.

Primitive type	Definition
Binary	A set of finite-length sequences of binary digits.
Date	Time point representing a calendar day on a time scale consisting of an origin and a succession of calendar ISO 8601:2004.
Decimal	A subset of the real numbers, which can be represented by decimal numerals.
String	A finite sequence of characters.

5. Code lists

5.1. Code lists for coded elements

Any element with the semantic data type = code, can mandate the use of a specific code list (or a fixed value). The applicable code lists can be found under Code lists in the top-menu bar. There you can find the valid codes, their names and description, and also links to where the same code list is used elsewhere in the transaction, or in other Logistics documents. Below are examples on usage of code lists for identifiers being used in all formats.

5.2. Code list for identifiers - Examples of usage

5.2.1. Party identifiers and party legal registration identifier scheme

All party identifiers (cac:PartyIdentification/cbc:ID) and party legal registration identifier (cac:PartyLegalEntity/cbc:CompanyID) has an optional scheme identifier attribute (@schemeID). If used, the value shall be chosen from the ICD code list.

Examples of usage in cac:PartyIdentification

<cac:PartyIdentification>
        <cbc:ID schemeID="0088">5790000435968</cbc:ID> (1)
</cac:PartyIdentification>

1	schemeID attribute is optional, but when used, the codes must be from the ICD code list.

5.2.2. Electronic address identifier scheme identifier

All electronic address identifiers (cbc:EndpointID/@schemeID) use the Electronic Address Scheme code list (EAS), maintained by CEF.

Valid values are found in the EAS code list.

Examples of usage in cbc:EndpointID

<cbc:EndpointID schemeID="0184">DK87654321</cbc:EndpointID> (1)

1	schemeID attribute is mandatory

6. Description of selected parts of the Transport Execution Plan.

6.1. Overview

The Transport Execution Plan consist of one consignment, a number of document references, a signature (optional) and several parties.

The consignment refers to a shipment and describes the transport events, the shipment stages, the transport contract and the transport handling units that carries the goods items in the consignment. The transport handling unit can use some transport equipment e.g., a container that again has seals. The goods item contains one item that may have information about commodity codes and desription about dangerous goods.

6.2. Parties

The following parties/roles may be specified in the message. The same actor may play more than one role depending on the handling routine.

6.2.5. Consignor (ConsignorParty)

Consignor, also known as the shipper, is the sender of the goods. The Consignor is often the buyer of the freight services. If the Consignor is the same for all consignments in the Waybill, the consignor can be described on the document level instead of in each consignment.

Example:

<cac:ConsignorParty>
        <cac:PartyName>
                <cbc:Name>Novo Nordisk Pharmatech A/S</cbc:Name>
        </cac:PartyName>

6.2.6. Consignee (ConsigneeParty)

Consignee is known as the DeliveryCustomerParty in the Despatch Advice. The Consignee is the person or organisation to which the products will be shipped and who is taking possession. The role is carried out by the customer or on behalf of the customer. The Consignee is a mandatory party in the consignment element and can be the Transportation Buyer.

Example:

<cac:ConsigneeParty>
        <cac:PartyName>
                <cbc:Name>HUS Hospital</cbc:Name>

6.2.7. Bill to party (BillToParty)

Used in the Transport Execution Plan to identify the party paying for the transport.

Example:

<cac:BillToParty>
        <cac:PartyIdentification>
                <cbc:ID schemeID="0088">7300010000001</cbc:ID>
        </cac:PartyIdentification>
        <cac:PartyName>
                <cbc:Name>Novo Nordisk Pharmatech A/S</cbc:Name>
        </cac:PartyName>
        <cac:PostalAddress>
                <cbc:StreetName>Københavnsvej 216</cbc:StreetName>
                <cbc:CityName>Køge</cbc:CityName>

                        <cbc:ID>VAT</cbc:ID>
                </cac:TaxScheme>
        </cac:PartyTaxScheme>
        <cac:PartyLegalEntity>
                <cbc:RegistrationName>Consortial</cbc:RegistrationName>
                <cbc:CompanyID schemeID="0089">SC234567</cbc:CompanyID>
                <cac:RegistrationAddress>
                        <cbc:CityName>Farthing</cbc:CityName>
                        <cac:Country>
                                <cbc:IdentificationCode>GB</cbc:IdentificationCode>
                        </cac:Country>
                </cac:RegistrationAddress>
        </cac:PartyLegalEntity>
</cac:BillToParty>

6.3. Document identification

The Transport Execution Plan is identified by the Document ID on header level. The Document ID is also referred to as the Booking identifier.

Example:

<cbc:ID>TEP_1</cbc:ID>

6.4. Consignment

A consignment is the transportation of an identifiable collection of goods items from one party (the consignor) to another (the consignee) via one or more modes of transport. There are often conflicts between the terms "Shipment" and "Consignment", but in this model the Shipment is focused on the contract and the movement of the goods (what is being shipped), while the Consignment is focused on the service of moving the goods (how it will be done). The consignment can consist of a number of transport handling units, the shipment stages relate to how they are transported and the events during the transport.

6.5. Transport event

The transport event supports an event-oriented document exchange. It represents a time and a location where the event took or is supposed to take place. The context (name) of the event indicates why it is applied. The transport events used in the Transport Execution Plan are:

Requested Pickup Transport Event
Actual Pickup Transport Event
Requested Delivery Transport Event
Actual Delivery Transport Event
Estimated Departure Transport Event
Estimated Arrival Transport Event
Transport Event (general)

The difference in requested and actual is that the requested event comes from the Transport user and the actual event comes from the Transport service provider. An example of a transport event is shown below:

<cac:PlannedPickupTransportEvent>
        <cac:Location>
                <cac:Address>
                        <cbc:StreetName>Neuer Wandrahm 4</cbc:StreetName>
                        <cbc:CityName>Hamburg</cbc:CityName>
                        <cbc:PostalZone>29400</cbc:PostalZone>
                        <cac:Country>
                                <cbc:IdentificationCode>DE</cbc:IdentificationCode>
                        </cac:Country>
                </cac:Address>
        </cac:Location>
        <cac:Period>
                <cbc:StartDate>2011-10-03</cbc:StartDate>
                <cbc:StartTime>09:30:10+01:00</cbc:StartTime>
                <cbc:EndDate>2011-10-03</cbc:EndDate>
                <cbc:EndTime>12:30:10+01:00</cbc:EndTime>
        </cac:Period>
</cac:PlannedPickupTransportEvent>

6.6. Shipment stage

The shipment stage describes a stage of a shipment. This can be from door to door, from door to terminal or form terminal to door. A shipment stage has at least one transport mode and one carrier Party. If the carriers are the same for all shipment stages, it can be defined in the consignment. In a consignment there can be many shipment stages, that is:

Main carriage. The shipment stage that is the primary leg for the shipment often used for carrying the goods from on country to another or from one harbour (or airport) or another. For trucks and rails, it can be fixed long distance routes.
Pre carriage. The transport from the first pickup to a terminal or port. There can be many pre carriages per consignment
On carriage. The transport from the arrival port or terminal of the main carriage on the way to the final destination. The shipment stage serves to list the route for the shipment. There can be transport event defined at departure or at arrival.

Example:

<cac:MainCarriageShipmentStage>
        <cbc:TransportModeCode>4 </cbc:TransportModeCode>
        <cbc:HazardousRiskIndicator>false </cbc:HazardousRiskIndicator>

6.7. Transport handling unit

Transport handling units are the units dealt with under transport. It describes a uniquely identifiable unit consisting of one or more packages, goods items, or pieces of transport equipment. A consignment must have at least one Transport handling unit. Includes the description of the transport equipment related to the transport handling unit and the measrument information with the length, width or height of the goods item.

6.8. Goods item

Goods item describes on a need to know basis an item under transport. The item can be identified with a textual description or an item specification containing the commodity classification and the hazardous information for an item connected to dangerous goods.

Example:

<cac:GoodsItem>
        <cbc:ID>10</cbc:ID>
        <cbc:Description>Torsk sl u/h fersk fulliset 20kg iso 2-4 kg</cbc:Description>
        <cbc:HazardousRiskIndicator>false</cbc:HazardousRiskIndicator>
        <cbc:Quantity unitCode="EA">6</cbc:Quantity>
        <cac:Item>
                <cbc:Name>Torsk</cbc:Name>
                <cac:CommodityClassification>
                        <cbc:ItemClassificationCode listID="ZZZ" listVersionID="3.0.2" name="SBMI">KO2012140200</cbc:ItemClassificationCode>
                </cac:CommodityClassification>
                <cac:HazardousItem>
                        <cbc:UNDGCode>ADR</cbc:UNDGCode>
                        <cbc:HazardClassID>2</cbc:HazardClassID>
                        <cbc:NetWeightMeasure unitCode="KGM">40.8</cbc:NetWeightMeasure>
                </cac:HazardousItem>
        </cac:Item>
</cac:GoodsItem>

7. Peppol Identifiers

PEPPOL has defined a PEPPOL Policy for identifiers, policy 8 that specifies how to use identifiers in both its transport infrastructure and within the documents exchanged across that infrastructure. It also introduces principles for any identifiers used in the PEPPOL environment. The policies that apply to this BIS are the following:

7.1. Profiles and messages

All messages contains ProfileID and CustomizationID. ProfileID identifies what business process a given message is part of, and CustomizationID identifies the kind of message and the rules applied.

Profiles are connected to one business process, and may contain multiple document types. Valid document instances shall contain corresponding ProfileID and CustomizationID.

CustomizationID is a string without spaces. The list below contains spaces in CustomizationID to make them easier to read. Make sure to remove any spaces before use.

7.2. Customization and Profile identifiers

In the table below you will find the values to be used as the specification identifier and the business process type for this profile.

Type Element cbc:CustomizationID Element cbc:ProfileID

Type	Element `cbc:CustomizationID`	Element `cbc:ProfileID`
Transport execution plan (Trdm123)	urn:fdc:peppol.eu:logistics:trns:transport_execution_plan:1	urn:fdc:peppol.eu:logistics:bis:transport_execution_plan_only:1

Transport execution plan (Trdm123)

urn:fdc:peppol.eu:logistics:trns:transport_execution_plan:1

urn:fdc:peppol.eu:logistics:bis:transport_execution_plan_only:1

7.3. Namespaces

The Transport Execution Plan data model is bound to UBL 2.3 of the document type {ubl-transport-execution-plan}. The target namespace for the UBL2.3 TransportExecutionPlan is: urn:oasis:names:specification:ubl:schema:xsd:TransportExecutionPlan-2
