Scope
The modelling of a business transaction through scenarios and scenario components is done by specifying
the applicable constraints through explicitly stated rules. The Open-edi Reference Model identified two basic
classes of constraints, namely "internal constraints" and "external constraints" (see further Annex G).
ISO/IEC 15944-4 focuses on internal constraints with a specific focus on doing so from an economic ontology
perspective.
External constraints apply to most business transactions.
Jurisdictional domains are the primary source of external constraints on a business transaction.
The primary purpose of this part of ISO/IEC 15944 is to address specific aspects of business semantic
descriptive techniques in order to be able to support legal requirements in modelling business transactions, i.e.
in the form of jurisdictional domains as sources of external constraints.
As such, this part of ISO/IEC 15944 addresses fundamental, i.e. more primitive, requirements of the legal
environment, as represented through jurisdictional domains, on business transactions and also integrates the
requirements of the information technology and telecommunications environments.
This part of ISO/IEC 15944 contains a methodology and tool for specifying common classes of external
constraints through the construct of "jurisdictional domains". It does so, following the approach already taken
by ISO/IEC 15944-1 and ISO/IEC 15944-2 through the use of explicitly stated rules, templates and Formal
Description Techniques (FDTs).
At the same time, a set of external constraints of a jurisdictional domain lends itself to being modelled through
scenarios and scenario components. For example, ISO/IEC 15944-1:2002, Annex I, 'Scenario descriptions
using the Open-edi scenario template: "Telecommunications Operations Map" example' is a scenario of an
external constraint of a jurisdictional domain, i.e. the USA, that provides a business process framework that
provides the enterprise process required for a telecommunications service provider.
Other examples of external constraints which lend themselves to being modelled as scenarios and scenario
components include the customer clearance process of the World Customs Organization (WCO), one or more
of the INCOTERMs, etc.
In addition to the existing strategic directions of "portability" and "interoperability", the added strategic direction
of ISO/IEC JTC 1 of "cultural adaptability" is also supported in this part of ISO/IEC 15944. Here, the fact that
external constraints of jurisdictional domains are a primary factor in the choice of language and application of
public policy are also addressed in this part of ISO/IEC 15944.
