CX-0121 Planned Production Output Exchange 1.0.0
ABSTRACT
The supplierSupplier In the context of OSim, the producer of goods.'s Planned Production Output is one of the key determinants for avoiding a shortage at the customerCustomer In the context of OSim, the receiver of produced goods from a supplier.'s site. With information about the supplierSupplier In the context of OSim, the producer of goods.'s Planned Production Output quantities allocated to a specific customerCustomer In the context of OSim, the receiver of produced goods from a supplier., it can be monitored and predicted whether the customerCustomer In the context of OSim, the receiver of produced goods from a supplier. demands can be fully supplied. If this is not the case, the information can be used by the customerCustomer In the context of OSim, the receiver of produced goods from a supplier. to derive adequate countermeasures to keep the impact as low as possible. These measures can range, for example, from creating an adapted production plan with the supplierSupplier In the context of OSim, the producer of goods., rescheduling or reducing the customerCustomer In the context of OSim, the receiver of produced goods from a supplier.'s demand and production to, e.g. organizing an express delivery from an alternative supplierSupplier In the context of OSim, the producer of goods..
However, collecting the Planned Production Output information manually e.g. by phone or e-mail is error prone and slow. As a result, unmet demands often remain unnoticed for too long and unnecessarily restrict the scope for countermeasures. This often leads to shortages, costly fire-fighting measures in the supply chain, production interruptions and ultimately to customerCustomer In the context of OSim, the receiver of produced goods from a supplier. dissatisfaction.
The standardization of the supplierSupplier In the context of OSim, the producer of goods.'s Planned Production Output semantics and exchange APIAPI An API is a way for two or more computer programs to communicate with each other. enables participants in the supply chain to share information about time-bound Planned Production Output quantities at a supplierSupplier In the context of OSim, the producer of goods.'s site in an interoperable manner.

1 INTRODUCTION
In recent years global supply chains have been significantly affected by global crises. This is compounded by ever-increasing complexity and interdependencies. As a result small and medium-sized enterprises as well as large enterprises are exposed to an increased risk of disruptions in their supply chains. To adapt to short-term fluctuations and develop the right countermeasures, it is essential to have sound information about the Planned Production Output of their suppliersSupplier In the context of OSim, the producer of goods..
This document describes and standardizes the semantic aspect modelAspect Model A formal, machine-readable semantic description (expressed with RDF/Turtle) of data accessible from an aspect. Note 1: An Aspect Model must adhere to the Semantic Aspect Meta Model (SAMM) and be compliant with its validity rules. Note 2: Aspect Models are logical data models that can be used to detail a conceptual model to describe the semantics of runtime data related to a concept; elements of an Aspect Model can/should refer to terms of a standardized Business Glossary (if existing). for the Planned Production Output as well as the associated APIAPI An API is a way for two or more computer programs to communicate with each other. to exchange Planned Production Output information between supply chain partners. The supplierSupplier In the context of OSim, the producer of goods.'s Planned Production Output is the planned quantity of a material allocated to a specific customerCustomer In the context of OSim, the receiver of produced goods from a supplier. in a time horizon of up to four weeks, that has not yet been produced. It has not yet been produced and is allocated to a specific partner. The scope of application is limited to existing business relationships and build-to-order (BTO) scenarios. Build-to-stock (BTS) use cases with no existing business relationships are explicitly not covered. In contrast to the strategic Demand and Capacity Management standard (DCM) [CX-0128], the Planned Production Output refers to short-term production planning, i.e. the actual utilization of existing and available capacity that resulted from capacity planning. It shows the latest production schedule-related information for a period of up to four weeks.
1.1 AUDIENCE & SCOPE
This section is non-normative
This standard is relevant for the following roles defined in [CX-OMW]:
- Data Providers willing to provide Planned Production Output data
- Data Consumers interested in requesting and receiving Planned Production Output data
- Business Application Providers interested in providing solutions implementing this standard
- Consulting Services Providers interested in supporting companies fulfilling the standard
The scope of this standard is only the Planned Production Output aspect modelAspect Model A formal, machine-readable semantic description (expressed with RDF/Turtle) of data accessible from an aspect. Note 1: An Aspect Model must adhere to the Semantic Aspect Meta Model (SAMM) and be compliant with its validity rules. Note 2: Aspect Models are logical data models that can be used to detail a conceptual model to describe the semantics of runtime data related to a concept; elements of an Aspect Model can/should refer to terms of a standardized Business Glossary (if existing). and APIAPI An API is a way for two or more computer programs to communicate with each other.. It describes the exchange of Planned Production Output data through a connector in accordance to [CX-0018].
1.2 CONTEXT AND ARCHITECTURE FIT
This section is non-normative
A typical order-based procurement process includes a customerCustomer In the context of OSim, the receiver of produced goods from a supplier. who places an order and a supplierSupplier In the context of OSim, the producer of goods. fulfilling it. If the ordered material is not on stock in a sufficient quantity at a supplierSupplier In the context of OSim, the producer of goods.'s facility (see [CX-0122] Item Stock Exchange) it needs to be scheduled for production. These quantities of scheduled production are the subject of this standard and are referred to as the Planned Production Output. To ensure that the Planned Production Output information will be interpreted, handled and exchanged in an interoperable manner between partners participating in Catena-X, this standard document defines the PlannedProductionOutput aspect modelAspect Model A formal, machine-readable semantic description (expressed with RDF/Turtle) of data accessible from an aspect. Note 1: An Aspect Model must adhere to the Semantic Aspect Meta Model (SAMM) and be compliant with its validity rules. Note 2: Aspect Models are logical data models that can be used to detail a conceptual model to describe the semantics of runtime data related to a concept; elements of an Aspect Model can/should refer to terms of a standardized Business Glossary (if existing). and the APIAPI An API is a way for two or more computer programs to communicate with each other. to be used in the Catena-X network.
Figure 1 shows the high-level architecture of the "Planned Production Output Exchange" in the Catena-X dataspace and the services that are involved. Both the data consumer and the data provider must be members of the Catena-X network in order to communicate with each other. With the help of the Credential Service and the Identity Access Management (IAM) each participant can authenticate itself, verify the identity of the requesting party and decide whether to authorize the request. The Planned Production Output data is provisioned in accordance with [CX-0002].

1.3 CONFORMANCE AND PROOF OF CONFORMITY
This section is non-normative
As well as sections marked as non-normative, all authoring guidelines, diagrams, examples, and notes in this specification are non-normative. Everything else in this specification is normative. The keywords MAY , MUST , MUST NOT , OPTIONAL , RECOMMENDED , REQUIRED , SHOULD and SHOULD NOT in this document are to be interpreted as described in [BCP 14] [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here.
All participants and their solutions will need to prove, that they are conform with the Catena-X standards. To validate that the standards are applied correctly, Catena-X employs Conformity Assessment Bodies (CABs). The proof of conformity for a single semantic model is done according to the general rules for proving the conformity of data provided to a semantic model or the ability to consume the corresponding data. Furthermore, participants agree to follow the normative language of this standardization document and to implement the required APIAPI An API is a way for two or more computer programs to communicate with each other.-Endpoints described in Chapter 4.
