CAN/CSA-ISO/IEC 14662-10

Preface Standards development within the Information Technology sector is harmonized with international standards development. Through the CSA Technical Committee on Information Technology (TCIT), Canadians serve as the Canadian Advisory Committee (CAC) on ISO/IEC Joint Technical Committee 1 on Information Technology (ISO/IEC JTC1) for the Standards Council of Canada (SCC), the ISO member body for Canada and sponsor of the Canadian National Committee of the IEC. Also, as a member of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), Canada participates in the International Telegraph and Telephone Consultative Committee (ITU-T). This Standard supersedes CAN/CSA-ISO/IEC 14662-05 (adoption of ISO/IEC 14662:2004). Scope This International Standard specifies the framework for co-ordinating the integration of existing International Standards and the development of future International Standards for the interworking of Open-edi Parties via Open-edi and provides a reference for those International Standards. As such it serves to guide the International Standards work necessary to accomplish Open-edi by providing the context to be used by developers of International Standards to ensure the coherence and integration of related standardized modelling and descriptive techniques, services, service interfaces, and protocols. This International Standard describes, through two perspectives of business transactions, significant aspects relevant to the interoperability of information technology systems used by Open-edi Parties engaging in Open-edi. The perspectives are: a) business aspects such as business information, business conventions, agreements and rules among Open-edi Parties; b) information technology aspects which are necessary in the Open-edi systems to support the execution of business transactions. This International Standard is not an implementation specification, nor is it a basis for appraising the conformance of implementations.
