RosettaNet
RosettaNet is a non-profit consortium of more than 600 companies worldwide, primarily in the fields of information technology, electronic components and semiconductor manufacturing, logistics, telecommunications, services, etc. The aim is to standardize data transmission interfaces by mutual exchange of electronic data.
RosettaNet is a subsidiary organization of the GS1 U.S., formerly the Uniform Code Council (UCC ), with offices in the USA, Malaysia, Europe, Japan, Taiwan, China, Singapore, Thailand and Australia.
As part of the RosettaNet organization cross-industry and laid open communication and timing methods are user groups and members agreed for the exchange of business documents between the computer systems of users of electronic data interchange and standardized to the exchange of data between suppliers and customers as free as possible of media breaks and data conversion issues, and this will enable cost-effective, faster and more accurately handle (B2B). Focus mainly on the areas of logistics and production in the foreground, but also the exchange of product and material data and the execution of service processes are taken into account.
Field of application
Use of the RosettaNet standards is widespread due to the structure of its founding members, particularly in the U.S., but is supported in Asian countries by the governments. In Europe it is due to the widespread use of EDIFACT less in use.
RosettaNet standards
Unlike organizations that focus on the implementation of proprietary solutions, RosettaNet optimizes existing open e -business standards, guidelines and specifications for cross-platform applications and network communication. RosettaNet defines e-business concepts (file formats, procedures, implementation specifications, etc.), thus developing standards to advance the compatibility of business processes. RosettaNet is based on open XML standards.
In RosettaNet PIPs are specialized system -to- system XML - based dialogs that define business processes between partners in a value chain. Each PIP includes a technical specification on the " RosettaNet Implementation Framework ( RNIF ) " is based, a message Guideline document with a PIP - specific version of the Business Dictionary and XML message Guideline document for the implementation necessary models and documents provides.
The various PIPs are divided into clusters (areas ), each covering a specific business process area.
- Cluster 0 RosettaNet Support / Support for RosettaNet
- Cluster 1 Partner Product and Service Review /
- Cluster 2 Product Information / Product
- Cluster 3 order management / purchase orders
- Cluster 4 Inventory Management / Inventory Management
- Cluster 5 Marketing Information Management /
- Cluster 6: Service and Support / Repair and Support
- Cluster 7: Manufacturing / production
From the clusters, and the further subdivision of the actual PIP name results
For example, PIP 3A4
European RosettaNet User Group
EDIFICE is European User Group for B2B standards in the high tech industry.
Miscellaneous
RosettaNet goes back to an initiative of U.S. companies in the 1990s. The name is based on the Rosetta stone, which formed the key to the understanding of Egyptian hieroglyphs, comparable to various file formats in which information is stored on various computer platforms and software products in different companies.
