Batch
A batch is a quantity of(semi-)finished products or(raw)material product that have been produced under the same circumstances(e.g. same production location), as specified groups or amounts, within a certain time frame. Every batch can differ in the number or amount of products. Different batches can have varied specifications, e.g., different colors. A batch is identified via a Batch ID.
Catena-X Identifier
The fully anonymous Catena-X ID of the batch, valid for the Catena-X dataspace.
Local Identifiers
A local identifier enables identification of a part in a specific dataspace, but is not unique in Catena-X dataspace. Multiple local identifiers may exist.
Manufacturing Information
Information from manufacturing process, such as manufacturing date and manufacturing country
Part Type Information
The part type of which the batch has been instantiated of.
Local Identifier Characteristic
A batch may have multiple attributes, which uniquely identify that batch in a specific dataspace(e.g. the manufacturer`s dataspace)
Manufacturing Characteristic
Characteristic to describe manufacturing related data
Part Type Information Characteristic
The characteristics of the part type
Key Value List
A list of key value pairs for local identifiers, which are composed of a key and a corresponding value.
Manufacturing Entity
Encapsulates the manufacturing relevant attributes
Part Type Information Entity
Encapsulation for data related to the part type
Identifier Key
The key of a local identifier.
Identifier Value
The value of an identifier.
Production Date
Timestamp of the manufacturing date as the final step in production process(e.g. final quality check, ready-for-shipment event)
Country code
Country code where the part was manufactured
Manufacturer Part ID
Part ID as assigned by the manufacturer of the part. The Part ID identifies the part(as designed)in the manufacturer`s dataspace. The Part ID does not reference a specific instance of a part and thus should not be confused with the serial number or batch number.
Name at Manufacturer
Name of the part as assigned by the manufacturer
Key Trait
Trait that ensures the usage of predefined keys.
Value Characteristic
Date Trait
Trait to ensure regular expressions with different date formats.
Production Country Code Trait
Trait to ensure standard data format for country code
Part ID Characteristic
The part ID is a multi-character string, usually assigned by an ERP system
Part Name Characteristic
Part Name in string format from the respective system in the value chain
Key Characteristic
The key characteristic of a local identifier. A specific subset of keys is predefined. Custom keys are not allowed. Predefined keys: - "manufacturerId" - The Business Partner Number(BPN)of the manufacturer. Value: BPN-Nummer - "batchId" - The identifier of the batch, to which the serialzed part belongs
Key Regular Expression
Constraint that ensures that the predefined keys are used.
Date Time Characteristic
Describes a Property which contains the date and time with an optional timezone.
Date Time Regular Expression
Regular Expression to enable UTC and Timezone formats and the possibility to exclude time information.
Country Code Characteristic
ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 ? three-letter country codes
Country Code Regular Expression
Regular Expression that ensures a three-letter code
