Introduction
Derivative use pilot
This document falls under a CEN-CENELEC pilot on derivative use (as approved by the CEN/CA
(Administrative Board) through decision 38/2019).
CEN has the copyright to all CEN publications, including their entire content and associated metadata,
as described in CEN-CENELEC Guide 10 "Policy on dissemination, sales and copyright of CEN-CENELEC
Publications". However, through the derivative use pilot, CEN gives permission to the copying,
replication and translation of content from CEN/TC 440 deliverables in specific circumstances.
Under the derivative use pilot, specific sections of CEN/TC 440 publications may be copied, replicated
and translated in cases, where this is a necessary condition for the meaningful implementation of the
publication. The sections which fall under derivative use will typically be elements, such as semantic
definitions and rules related to the use of information elements, and the name, definition and
description of processes and transactions, which are needed in software solutions, whether intended
for sale in the private market or for use in the public sector, and documents guiding the implementation
and use in specific countries and/or business sectors.
Under derivative use, any use of content, which has been copied, replicated, or translated from a
CEN/TC 440 publication, must comply with the intended use of the publication. Derivative use cannot
be applied in use cases other than those the publication is intended to support. The intended use of this
publication is set out below.
Intended use of this publication
This document has been developed for any organization looking for guidance on the implementation
and use of electronic procurement deliverables as well as for organizations developing or implementing
software applications related to electronic procurement, such as software providers, business entities
and national authorities. These software applications must be in conformance with this publication.
Parts of the document to which derivative use apply
Each subclause, which falls under derivative use, will be clearly marked with a note. The degree to
2
which the specific content can be modified is defined in CEN/TS 17011-3:— , Electronic Public
Procurement – Architecture – Part 3: Customization Guideline.
Annex A provides an overview of the line number references to all subclauses of the publication which
fall under derivative use.

3.7
state
set of options and obligations of the participating agents at a defined step in a business process to
perform specific activities and collaborations
Note 1 to entry: Additional information: an activity of an agent or a collaboration may cause the transition of one
state to another in a predefined set of next steps.
3.8
transaction
content of data exchanged or shared between the agents in a collaboration
Note 1 to entry: A transaction is the atomic unit that leads to a synchronized state in the information systems of
collaborating agents. It is the basic building block to define the choreography between agents. When an agent
recognizes an event that changes the state of a business object within a business process, it uses a transaction to
synchronize with the collaborating agent. A transaction therefore changes the state of a business process. It
carries the intention of the initiating agent and is represented by a data structure that is defined by a data model.
The exchange of a transaction may alter legal obligations between business partners.

4.2 Business environment
4.2.1 Introduction
The intended scope for this choreography includes public procurement, but the choreography may also
be used in Business to Business (B2B) relations.
This choreography is intended to support use of electronic documents for processing in (semi-)
automated processes. The legal requirements that were taken into account are requirements from
European legislation, particularly the EU directives, as mentioned in the Bibliography of this document.
The list of the transactions being part of this choreography is defined in Clause 6.
4.2.2 Business context
This choreography belongs to the e-Ordering business area that is described in Figure 1:

4.2.3 Positioning in EIRA
EIRA provides a reference model that enables architects to position the IOP specifications. This
document provides a domain-specific IOP specification to which any SBB implementing the ABB should
be compliant to. The positioning of this document in the EIRA context is described in Table 3.
IoP specifications provide a valuable source of information to formulate requirements during
architecture development and solution development. By identifying architectural building blocks
through a common terminology, it
— helps reuse of cross domain building blocks such for instance e-Signature Verification and
Validation Service, and e-Timestamp Creation Service;
— helps synchronization with European solutions such as CEF eDelivery;
— and will provide guidance in using them to provide the prescribed capability enabling, thus
managing and rationalizing IT portfolios.

HLR-17016-1:20xx-9 Accounting: The ordering process shall support G-17016-1:20xx-6
the allocation of budgets, so the value amounts

some information that the supplier is required to
place on the invoice for aiding and automating
invoice approval.
HLR-17016-1:20xx-11 VAT reporting: VAT reporting is not a general G-17016-1:20xx-7
requirement on orders. The level of support in
orders is to:
- Enable VAT reporting in invoices by providing
VAT number of buyers in case of reverse
charges.
VAT can be stated as an estimate to enable
buyers to state expected value of order. This can
be helpful in automated matching of orders and
invoices. VAT information is informative and
does not affect the terms of trade.
HLR-17016-1:20xx-12 Transport and delivery: Only limited support is G-17016-1:20xx-3
in scope for transport related information, but it
is recognized that the buyer needs to be able to
provide some information about requested
delivery location (by use of identifiers or full
textual description).
HLR-17016-1:20xx-13 Inventory: Supporting inventory management is G-17016-1:20xx-3
not in scope, but structured orders based on
catalogues can be used to automate picking at
supplier warehouses.
NOTE:
Payment:
Information about pre-payment or arrangement of payment are not considered core functionality in order and are
therefore not supported.

5 Processes
5.1 Introduction
In order to encompass the various maturity levels of organizations, (see HLR-17016-1:20xx-2), the
approach is to specify variants of business processes that use a set of activities around exchanging
information in different combinations, still fulfilling the goals set out in 4.1.
The state machine diagram depicted in Figure 3 provides information on the common states for systems
to get in agreement.

5.2 Business process variants
5.2.1 Introduction
Eight variants are identified as reported in the following table. They allow for supporting different
levels of interoperability maturity of the organizations willing to automate the exchange of information
in the business area at stake as defined by High level requirement HLR.
The variants combine in various ways the basic processes defined above through various collaborations
between Buyer and Seller as described in Table 6.

Subclause 5.2 falls under derivative use (as set out in the Introduction). When replicating the section, the content
may be modified.
