SUMMIT OBJECTIVE

The summit objective is to collaborate with industry groups and associations to extend the reach of e-business to 100% of the supply chain and to provide companies of all sizes around the world integrated and seamless electronic business exchange. To accomplish this goal, ASC X12 is asking XML developers to share business processes and rules they follow in order to create XML DTDs or schemas. This information will then be gathered and consolidated as XML best practices. Taking these best practices, what we know from the ebXML technical specifications, and the current state of the next generation of standards, a standard set of XML design rules will be created.
