Between trading partners in other industries ebXML envelope Engage other standards initiatives • To provide standards that are open and freely available 5 Implementation Status Current and Planned Implementations • Trading partner linkages in production and scheduled to be in production in the upcoming six months. • A link is defined as a from-to trading partner relationship for a given continent. - Companies who report using papiNet for internal communication are not included in this analysis, only their external linkage. • Besides the outstanding growth in production use this chart also illustrates the high degree conversion of planned implementation to actual use.

Production 6 Implementation Status Current and Planned Implementations by Message Short-Term Production • Basic messages are used most frequently including Delivery Message, Purchase Order, Invoice, Order Confirmation, and Goods Receipt • There is still a long way to go on Basic messages before other messages will be implemented 7 Implementation Status Production Use of Each Message • The most prevalently implemented message remains the Delivery Message followed by the Purchase Order, Order Confirmation, and Invoice. 8 papiNet Standard Just what is the papiNet Standard? • Set of common electronic formats and terminology for the paper and forest products industry - Designed to facilitate application-to-application information exchange • Interoperability guidelines based on the ebXML message service specification (ISO 15000) - Designed to facilitate system-to-system information exchange • Stylesheets, currently through version 2.10 - Designed to facilitate human understanding of message content • Implementation Guidelines - Designed to facilitate rapid use • Case Studies (Business Scenarios) - Answers to common situations • Sample XML - What the XML would look like 9 papiNet Standard Business Process Overview Paper Producer The goal is to remove cost from the supply chain Publisher/ Cataloger 10 Agreement Planning (Forecast) Planning (Production Plan) Inventory Status (summary) Goods Receipt Usage Printer/ Converter papiNet Standard Collaboration Benefits • Simpler, cost effective and efficient business transactions using agreed-upon language • Increased data accuracy through less human intervention • Increased supply chain visibility • Less paper work 11 papiNet Standard papiNet and XML Benefits • International XML message standard - Common language for the industry Easy to understand messages Less errors due to schema and data-typing Comprehensive messages for today’s and future processes • XML tools support - Generic XML tools provide support for more than just papiNet 12 papiNet Standard Timing Your Migration to XML 13 papiNet Standard papiNet Versions Complete the Set Purchase Order RFQ Usage Availability Order Confirmation RFQ Response Order Status Planning Call Off Goods Receipt Inventory Status Product Performance Delivery Message Credit Debit Note Inventory Change Product Quality Invoice Business Ack Information Request Complaint Product Attributes Complaint Response 14 V1.0 V1.1 V2.0 V2.1 June 2001 Feb 2002 August 2002 April 2003 Release Release Release Release papiNet Standard Brief Review of our Structure Messages have a very uniform structure with the common definitions contained in file that is shared amongst all the Message message schema files. • You can depend on a consistent definition regardless of where the element is used. Common definitions are shared amongst all the messages providing a consistent, universal approach and easy implementation. 15 Message Common Definitions Message papiNet Standard A Bit More Detail 16 papiNet Standard A Look at the XML Output XML allows you to predefine and restrict choices for the content. In this case we’ve restricted the content to a predefined list of values. You can also: • Impose a constant format for dates • Define patterns to be applied 17 Interoperability A Standard Approach • ebXML is a UN/CEFACT and OASIS standard that has achieved ISO standard status (ISO 15000) - There are several distinct parts to the standard, papiNet has only formally accepted the Message Service and Collaboration (CPPA) aspects. - The ebXML Message Service Specification includes the definition of the envelope as well as how the Message Service should behave - The ebXML envelope acts as a common interface between systems • Your internal integration information will be used to determine how the ebXML envelope is used (when received) and how you will create the ebXML envelope (when sending).
