The UBL approach & features
• Conscious choice of defining the ebXML Core
Components (CCs) and the UBL Business
Information Entities (BIEs) at the semantic level
• UBL defined naming and design rules
• employment of a “context” methodology
• User (industrial specific) extensibility
• Externally maintained repository of BIEs and
Documents
• All code lists are external (both for creation and
maintenance) which UBL will just point to
