Schematron Rules

Rule ID Syntax (XML location) Change Business Rule Reason

Rule ID	Syntax (XML location)	Change	Business Rule	Reason
IBR-SR-63	`cbc:CustomizationID`	Added	Specification identifier must not contain the wildcard character '*'	New rule to block using wildcard character in customizationID

IBR-SR-63

cbc:CustomizationID

Added

Specification identifier must not contain the wildcard character '*'

New rule to block using wildcard character in customizationID

IBR-SR-63:

Previous Behavior: No validation was enforced on cbc:CustomizationID to restrict wildcard character.

New Behavior: cbc:CustomizationID Specification identifier must not contain the wildcard character '*'.

Justification: In general terms the busdox looks for an exact match, whereas DDTS uses a wildcard and looks for first match through a sequence. The wildcard is only used when registering the receiving capability, not in the document.

Action Items for Implementers

Update your messages to comply with the new Schematron rule IBR-SR-63. If your current implementation already meets this rule, no changes are needed.
