DRAFT - The specification is currently in development and subject to significant change. It is not ready for limited roll-out or production level use.
Actors and Transactions
Requester/Performer Integration
The following diagrams illustrate the actors and transactions between the eReC Requester and eReC Performer actors, in scope for the CA:eReC Messaging Interoperability Specification.
Informer/Recipient Integration
The following diagrams illustrate the actors and transactions between the eReC Informer and eReC Recipient actors, in scope for the CA:eReC Messaging Interoperability Specification.
Messaging Compliance
Requester/Performer Integration: Messaging Compliance
The table below lists the transactions for each actor directly involved in CA:eReC Messaging.
To claim compliance with CA:eReC Messaging, an actor SHALL:
- support all transactions corresponding to the Maturity Level being claimed and lower, and
- appropriately handle error messages generated by less mature solutions that are unable to process messages sent.
Solutions MAY support a subset of transactions generally associated with solutions of higher maturity levels.
In other words:
- An actor conforming to Maturity Level 3 SHALL implement transactions from Maturity Level 3, Maturity Level 2 and Maturity Level 1
- An actor conforming to Maturity Level 2 SHALL implement transactions from Maturity Level 2 and Maturity Level 1 and MAY implement transactions from Maturity Level 3
- An actor conforming to Maturity Level 1 SHALL implement transactions from Maturity Level 1 and MAY implement transactions from Maturity Level 2 and Maturity Level 3

1 Vendors claiming Level 3 compliance for the eReC Requester SHOULD demonstrate the actor's use with a compliant eReC Recipient (link).
2 Vendors claiming Level 3 compliance for the eReC Performer SHOULD demonstrate the actor's use with a compliant eReC Informer (link).
