RosettaNet History and organization
• Named after the Rosetta Stone, which, carved with the
same message in three languages, led to the
understanding of hieroglyphics
• Founded in June 1998 by 40 leading IT organizations
• Non-profit consortium
• Members of more than 400 of the world's leading
Information Technology (IT), Electronic Components
(EC), Semiconductor Manufacturing (SM) and Solution
Provider (SP) companies
RosettaNet Goals
• working to implement standards for supply-chain
(manager-supplier) transactions on the Internet
• to standardize labels for elements like product
descriptions, part numbers, pricing data, and inventory
status
• to implement many of its goals through XML
PIPs
•
•
•
•
Short for RosettaNet Partner Interface Processes
Specialized system-to-system XML-based dialogs
Define business processes between trading partners
Each PIP specification includes
– a business document with the vocabulary
– a business process with the choreography of the message dialog
– structure and content format of the business documents
exchanged (XML DTDs and guidelines)
– the time, security, authentication and performance constraints on
the document interactions.
PIP (cont)
• Apply to the following core processes

Administration
Partner, Product and Service Review
Product Introduction
Order Management
Inventory Management
Marketing Information Management
Service and Support
Manufacturing
• Examples
– purchase order management
– distribution of new product information.
RNIF
• Short for RosettaNet Implementation Framework
• Problem: format of PIP varies on per PIP and the specific
business document type basis
• Provides the packaging, routing, and transport of
RosettaNet PIP message and business signals using
XML
• Provides implementation guidelines for creating
interoperable software applications components that
facilitate the execution of Partner Interface Processes
(PIPs)
• Core Specification provides exchange protocols for quick
and efficient implementation of RosettaNet standards
RNIF 2.0
• Core specification is the RosettaNet Business Message
– Includes the authentication, authorization, encryption and nonrepudiation requirements
– Essential for conducting secure electronic business over the
Internet
• Specifies the use of MIME multipart/related type for the
basic enveloping construct to pack
• Supports HTTP(S) and SMTP protocols with provision
for future addition of other transfer protocols like FTP.
RosettaNet Dictionaries
• Common vocabulary for conducting e-business
• Reduce confusion in the procurement process due to
each company's uniquely defined terminology
• Are classified as Business and Technical Dictionaries.
• RosettaNet Business Dictionary
– Designates the properties for defining business transactions
between trading partners
• RosettaNet Technical Dictionary
– provides properties for defining products and services
RosettaNet Business Dictionary
• Defines the Business Properties, Business Data Entities,
and Fundamental Business Data Entities in PIP
Message Guidelines, which are used in basic business
activities between trading partners
• Those properties are:
– Business Properties (e.g. business address)
– Business Data Entities (e.g. ActionIdentity)
– Fundamental Business Data Entities (e.g. BusinessTaxIdentifier,
AccountNumber)
– Etc.
• Only one business dictionary that encompasses all
supply chains (EC, IT etc)
RosettaNet Technical Dictionary (RNTD)
• Defines properties for products, components/devices
and services that span the EC, IT and other supply
chains
• Formerly distinct EC Technical Dictionary and the IT
Technical Dictionary are now integrated into the
RosettaNet Technical Dictionary
• Latest version RNTD 3.0 released in March 2003
Example
• Project: Intel and Shinko use RosettaNet standards to
build forecast-to-cash procurement process
• Featured Partners
– Intel, semiconductor manufacturer
– Shinko, components supplier/assembly subcontractor
• Business Challenges
– Replacement of manual procurement system; establishment of
100% electronic forecast-tocash procurement process; support
of Intel'sB2Bi strategy
