Overall objective → Post-award and elements related to the Item.
Information regarding pre-procurement.
New technologies (blockchain, 3D printing area).
Testing data can be provided (mock-up).
Providing use cases for the eCatalogue model.
Discuss GH 317
Continuing adding definitions to epo:Item attributes:
-
*VAT category code - *this should be skipped because the requirement might change.
-
epo:hasInstockIndicator is changed to epo:isInStock to be consistent with the naming of indicators in the ontology.
-
*epo:hasExpiryDate - * is located on epo:Batch class
-
epo:BatchNumber - is replaced by predicate epo:hasID with epo:Identifier as target class.
-
In supply chain direction we might need to provide details at the manufacturer level, so we might need the role as a separate class. For the moment we can have a simple relation to the epo:Agent, epo:hasManufacturer with the following definition: “The maker of the service or product.”
-
*epo:hasNetQuantity - *relationship to epo:Quantity target class.
Task: Publish a snapshot of what has been modelled for this issue and close ticket.
Discuss GH 337
Modelling on the catalogue item price diagram.
An Item can have 0 or more than one price.
-
epo-ecat:Price was created with the following definition: “Amount of money required or given in exchange for items.”
-
epo:hasValidity changed to *epo:hasCatalogueLineValidity *for model consistency reasons.
-
epo-ecat:hasNetMonetaryValue as a predicate to epo:MonetaryValue target class.
-
epo-ecat:hasOrderableUnitFactorRate - changing the definition to the following: “The factor by which the base unit of the price can be converted to orderable unit.”
-
epo-ecat:hasQuantityThreshold - from epo-ecat:Price to epo:Quantity with the following definition: “The minimum quantity of the item that can be ordered to the given net monetary value.”
-
epo-ecat:hasLeadTime - from epo-ecat:Price to epo:Duration with the following definition: “The expected amount of time between the order and the delivery of an item.”
-
epo-ecat:hasValidityPeriod - from epo-ecat:Price to epo:Duration with the following definition: “The period of time when the item can be ordered to the given price.”
-
epo-ecat:hasDeliveryLocation - from epo-ecat:Price to epo:Duration with the following definition: “Location delivery area where the item can be ordered to the given price.”
-
*epo-ecat:hasBaseQuantity - *from epo-ecat:Price to epo:Quantity with the following definition: “The quantity at which the net monetary value applies.”
Task: Publish a snapshot of what has been modelled for this issue and close ticket.
Discuss GH 336
Proposed to add a new enumeration at-voc-new:delivery-item-type - indication whether an item is a product or a service. The dependency relationship between epo:Item and this enumeration should be epo-ecat:hasDeliveryClassification.
For instance, possible values could be:
-
SER - Trade item is a service
-
MTO - Trade item is manufactured after order
-
VQ - Trade item is variable measure item, that is, the quantity in the package is not fixed, and the price for the item varies with the quantity
-
RC - Trade item is a returnable unit
Task: Publish a snapshot of what has been modelled for this issue and close ticket.
For the next meeting we need new GH issues regarding classifications and labels of items.
