UN+CEFACT+XML+Messages

In 2007 at its Dublin Forum, UN/CEFACT announced the release of the Cross Industry Invoice (CII). This was effectively the start of CEFACTs release of XML [|schema] for international amd multi-sectoral use. This schema is termed CEFACT XML, and it provides the validation necessary to ensure an XML file is compliant with the library model, and therefore inter-operable with disparate systems. The schema is created using Naming and Design rules (NDR) and transforms the Core Component Library meta data in each message into XML schema in a consistent and uniform way.
