The UNeDocs reuse concept based on the UN/CEFACT Core component Library is the foundation for new document types whilst also

Slide 10 UNeDocs Interoperability, Reusability and Single Windows Slide 10 UNeDocs: The interoperability platform for Single Window implementations UNeDocs is based on the concept of a cross-domain Trade, Transport and Customs data model, known as the UNeDocs Master, from which any document used within the international purchase and supply chain can be derived. This data model, which is based on international standards, allows users to produce documents in paper, EDI or XML format. The main benefit of UNeDocs is that it provides countries with an out of the box option for International Trade Single Window projects which is aligned to international standards. The implementation of UNeDocs does not require a detailed understanding of the standards on which it is based. Since the UNeDocs data model is a superset of data elements used within the international purchase and supply chain, it can be easily tailored to user requirements yet remain internationally aligned. Kuala Lumpur February 2006 UNECE/CEFACT Capacity Building Workshop International Standards to Stimulate Paperless Trade UNeDocs Interoperability, Reusability and
Single Windows Slide 11 There are several standards on which UNeDocs is based. These currently include: UN/CEFACT Trade Reference Model for the International Purchase and Supply Chain UN/CEFACT Unified Modelling Methodology (UMM) UN/CEFACT Core Components Technical Specification (CCTS) Version 2.01 UN/CEFACT TBG17 Core Component Library Version 9c UN/CEFACT XML Naming and Design Rules Version 1.1 ISO 7372 United Nations Trade Data Elements Directory (UNTDED) 2005 United Nations Layout Key (UNLK) UN/ECE Recommendation No. 1 UN/CEFACT EDIFACT Directory version D03A Kuala Lumpur February 2006 UNECE/CEFACT Capacity Building Workshop International Standards to Stimulate Paperless Trade UNeDocs Interoperability, Reusability and Single Windows Slide 12 UNeDocs for Single Windows Materials Management Transport
