8 Certification schema

8.1 General

The subject of the certification_schema is the definition of certifications. A certification assures and validates product data.

EXAMPLE 1   A material certificate states the chemical composition of one or more physical pieces of material, for example, purchased raw material. The presence of the material certificate removes the need to test the composition of the material; it allows the specified material composition to be accepted as fact without further investigation.

EXAMPLE 2   A certified supplier can supply goods that do not require checking.

This clause defines the information requirements to which implementations shall conform using the EXPRESS language as defined in ISO 10303-11. The following EXPRESS declaration begins the certification_schema and identifies the necessary external references.

Each implementation of an AP that uses this schema and that encodes entity names shall use the encoding specified in Annex A. Each reference to this schema in an open system shall use the identifier encoding specified in Annex B. This schema is illustrated in Annex D using the EXPRESS-G notation.

EXPRESS specification:

*)
SCHEMA certification_schema;

REFERENCE FROM support_resource_schema    --  ISO 10303-41
  (label,
   text);
(*

NOTE 1   The schemas referenced above are specified in the following parts:

support_resource_schema ISO 10303-41

NOTE 2   See Annex D for a graphical representation of this schema.

8.2 Fundamental concepts and assumptions

Certification information can be attached to any aspect of product data.

8.3 certification_schema entity definitions

8.3.1 certification   EXPRESS-G

A certification is an assertion of facts. A certification is an incompletely modeled concept and requires population of related entity data types to form a complete certification.

NOTE    The role of certification can be defined in the annotated EXPRESS schemas that use or specialize this entity, or by default, in an agreement of common understanding between the partners sharing this information.

EXPRESS specification:

*)
ENTITY certification;
  name : label;
  purpose : text;
  kind : certification_type;
END_ENTITY;
(*

Attribute definitions:

name: the label by which the certification is known.

purpose: an informal description of the reason why the certification is applied.

EXAMPLE    A purpose for material certification could be the fact that certain customers demand material certification for the products that are supplied to them.

kind: the certification_type that defines the class of certification that is applied.

8.3.2 certification_type   EXPRESS-G

A certification_type is the kind of certification granted.

EXAMPLE 1   Suppliers and manufacturers can be certified.

EXPRESS specification:

*)
ENTITY certification_type;
  description : label;
END_ENTITY;
(*

Attribute definitions:

description: the text that characterizes the certification_type.

NOTE    The meaning of this attribute can be defined in the annotated EXPRESS schemas that use or specialize this entity, or in an agreement of common understanding between the partners sharing this information.

EXAMPLE 2   A certification type in an example supply chain is 'supplier'.
