UN/EDIFACT D97.A <strong>OSTRPT</strong> - <strong>Order</strong> status report message<br />
3. MESSAGE DEFINITION<br />
3.1 <strong>Message</strong> Structure<br />
The <strong>Order</strong> status report message of UN/EDIFACT is structured in two sections, a Heading<br />
Section and a Detail Section.<br />
3.1.1. <strong>Message</strong> structure - Heading section<br />
The heading section is used to give the general information relating to the whole message.<br />
Examples of this kind of information are references to the order status request, order status<br />
date, and the identification of the parties involved.<br />
3.1.2. <strong>Message</strong> structure - Detail section<br />
The detail section is controlled by the segment group 3 with the mandatory segment DOC<br />
and the message can have a maximum of 999 segment groups.<br />
Each line of the detail section provides the possibility to give order status information at<br />
three different levels. This can be for an order, for one or several items of an order or for<br />
one or several delivery schedules, or split deliveries of an order item.<br />
The segment DOC of the detail section is used to specify the order number and the related<br />
status information is given in segment group 4, triggered by the status (STS) segment.<br />
The segment LIN of group 5 is used to specify the order item by its number and the related<br />
status information is given in the segment group 7, triggered by the STS segment.<br />
The segment group 15, triggered by the SCC segment, and the segment group 16, triggered<br />
by the LOC segment allows the specification of a delivery schedule or deliveries split by<br />
location. The related status information is given in the segment group 17, triggered by the<br />
STS segment.<br />
3.2. Mapping of the Data model to the message<br />
To understand the mapping process, completed by the EDIFER working group, it is<br />
necessary to have knowledge about the structure of the official EDIFACT <strong>OSTRPT</strong> message<br />
and the functionality of the segment groups and segments as defined by the EDIFACT<br />
message development group MD1 - Trade.<br />
To have the complete information about the official version we recommend the use of the<br />
official document published by UNITED NATIONS - EDIFACT directory D97.A.<br />
The mapping is done starting from the entities, relationships and attributes of the data model<br />
to the EDIFACT message.<br />
This mapping is presented as a table containing the entities with the following information ;<br />
- the attributes<br />
- the segment group number<br />
- the segment by its tag<br />
- the Edifact data element<br />
- remarks about the usage.<br />
