New National Adoption
BSR/X9.116-1/ISO 20022-1-201x, Universal Financial Industry Message

Scheme - Part 1: Metamodel (national adoption of ISO 20022-1:2013 with
modifications and revision of ANSI X9.116-1, ISO 20022-1-2008)

Scheme - Part 4: XML Schema Generation (identical national adoption of
ISO 20022-4-2013)
This part of ISO 20022 consists of:
This part of ISO 20022 was prepared to complement the ISO 20022
Metamodel, as specified in ISO 20022-1, with the XML syntax transformation
rules to be applied by the ISO 20022 Registration Authority in order to
translate an ISO-20022-compliant MessageDefinition into an XML Schema
for the description and validation of XML Messages. It specifies the
transformation rules from level 3 to level 4. It is a deterministic
transformation, meaning that the resulting XML Schema is completely
predictable for a given MessageDefinition. There is neither manual input to
the transformation itself nor manual adjustment to the result of the
transformation.
- the overall description of the modelling approach;

- the overall description of the ISO 20022 Repository contents;
- a high-level description of the input to be accepted by the Registration
Authority to feed/modify the Repositorys DataDictionary and
BusinessProcessCatalogue;
- a high-level description of the Repository output to be made publicly
available by the Registration Authority.
BusinessTransactions and Message Sets complying with ISO 20022 can be
used for electronic data interchange amongst any industry participants
(financial and others), independently of any specific communication network.
Network-dependent rules, such as message acknowledgement and
message protection, are outside the scope of ISO 20022.

Scheme - Part 2: UML Profile (identical national adoption of ISO 20022-2
-2013 and revision of ANSI X9.116-2, ISO 20022-2-2008)
Part 2 specifies the responsibilities of the bodies involved in the registration
and maintenance of the DataDictionary and BusinessProcessCatalogue
items in the ISO 20022 Repository. The Registration Authority (RA) is the
operating authority responsible for the above-mentioned tasks, and is
assisted by different Standards Management Groups (SMG), i.e., groups of
industry experts responsible for specific Business Areas of the Repository.
The Registration Management Group (RMG) is the governing body of the
overall registration process and the appeal body for the communities of
users, the RA and the SMGs, and monitors the registration process
performance.

Incorporated)
Scheme - Part 3: Modelling (identical national adoption of ISO 20022-3
-2013)
This part of ISO 20022 describes the modelling workflow, complementing
ISO 20022-1 and ISO 20022-2. The modelling workflow describes the
required steps a modeller follows in order to develop and maintain
standardized BusinessTransactions and MessageSets. This part of ISO
20022 is not intended to describe what will be the permissible artefacts
and/or documents to be submitted to the Registration Authority (this
information is contained in ISO 20022-7).

Scheme - Part 5: Reverse Engineering (identical national adoption of ISO
20022-5-2013)
This part of ISO 20022 was prepared to complement ISO 20022-1. The
reverse engineering guidelines explain how to extract relevant information
from existing IndustryMessageSets in order to prepare the submission to the
ISO 20022 Registration Authority of equivalent, ISO-20022-compliant
BusinessTransactions and MessageSets. The ISO 20022 Repository will
contain all ISO-20022-compliant BusinessTransactions and MessageSets,
as outlined in ISO 20022-1.

Incorporated)
Scheme - Part 6: Message Transport Characteristics (identical national
adoption of ISO 20022-6-2013)
This part of ISO 20022 specifies the characteristics of the
MessageTransportSystem required for an ISO 20022 BusinessTransaction
and MessageDefinition. Changes to the value of the MessageTransport
Characteristics can affect the BusinessTransaction and MessageDefinition.
Each BusinessTransaction in the ISO 20022 Repository is associated with a
MessageTransportMode. The MessageTransportMode specifies the values
for the MessageTransportCharacteristics. This part of ISO 20022 specifically
does not define the wire-level interoperability of message transports. The
overall structure is of a layered specification so that ISO 20022 can be
implemented over many message transports. This part of ISO 20022 defines
only those characteristics required for interoperability at the business
process and message level.

Scheme - Part 7: Registration (identical national adoption of ISO 20022-7
-2013)
This part of ISO 20022 specifies the responsibilities of the Registration
Authority. The Registration Authority (RA) is the operating authority
responsible for the registration of the universal financial industry message
scheme and the maintenance of the ISO 20022 Repository, and for providing
access to the information as described in ISO 20022-1. Concerning the
registration request process, the RA is monitored and assisted by ISO/TC

Scheme - Part 8: ASN.1 Generation (identical national adoption of ISO
20022-8-2013)
This part of ISO 20022 describes the transformation rules to generate ASN.1
abstract syntax from an ISO-20022-compliant MessageDefinition. The
generated abstract syntax is for the description and validation of Messages.
The transformation rules are a transformation from Level 3 to Level 4. It is a
deterministic transformation, meaning that the resulting ASN.1 is completely
predictable for a given MessageDefinition. There is neither manual input to
the transformation itself nor manual adjustment to the result of the
transformation. This part of ISO 20022 is the ASN.1 equivalent of ISO 20022
-4. In ISO 20022-4, the abstract syntax generated is XML Schema; in this
part of ISO 20022 it is ASN.1. In ISO 20022-4, the only encoding supported
is UTF-8 XML; in this part, there are multiple encodings supported for
ASN.1. These include all the standard encodings, but in addition the ability to
register custom encodings in ECN.

Project Initiation Notification System (PINS)

ANSI Procedures require notification of ANSI by ANSI-accredited standards developers (ASD) of the initiation and scope of activities expected to result in
new or revised American National Standards (ANS). Early notification of activity intended to reaffirm or withdraw an ANS and in some instances a PINS
related to a national adoption is optional. The mechanism by which such notification is given is referred to as the PINS process. For additional information,
see clause 2.4 of the ANSI Essential Requirements: Due Process Requirements for American National Standards.
Following is a list of proposed actions and new ANS that have been received recently from ASDs. Please also review the section in Standards Action
entitled "American National Standards Maintained Under Continuous Maintenance" for additional or comparable information with regard to standards
maintained under the continuous maintenance option. To view information about additional standards for which a PINS has been submitted and to search
approved ANS, please visit www.NSSN.org, which is a database of standards information. Note that this database is not exhaustive.
Directly and materially affected interests wishing to receive more information or to submit comments are requested to contact the standards developer
directly within 30 days of the publication of this announcement.

Changes to the proposed standard are reflected below with black strikethroughs (for proposed
deletions) and red text (for proposed additions). Any language that is proposed for removal
appears with a strikethrough. Any parts of the proposed standard not mentioned below
remain intact in the revised proposed standard as originally published. Only the changes
shown in the document below are open for public comment. For convenience, a redlined version of
the full proposed standard is available: http://www.remancouncil.org/reman-proposed-standard.
The changes to the proposed standard are summarized as follows:
1. At ANSIs request and in conformance with ANSIs Essential Requirements, the following
three changes were made:
1. The designation of the proposed standard was changed from ANSI/RIC 2016 to
RIC001.1-2016 to conform to ANSIs recommended format for a standards
designation.
2. The reference to RIC was removed from the Verification of conformance with this
standard section, and replaced with an accredited third-party.
3. The Warranty section was removed in its entirety.
2. By suggestion of the remanufacturing consensus body and other relevant stakeholders, as
well as in an effort to present a cleaner document, the following three changes were made:
1. The word component was changed to part throughout the document.
2. The title of Section 4 was changed to Other relevant standards.
3. The definitions section was reorganized to present the definitions in alphabetical
order. In addition, some of the definitions were modified or removed (see below for
details).
1. Introduction
Remanufacturing is a comprehensive and rigorous industrial process by which a previously
sold or leased product or componentpart is returned through a controlled, reproducible and
sustainable process to a like-new or better-than-new condition, and warranted in
performance level and quality for form, fit and function.
3. Scope
The specifications in this standard will promote continual improvement in the
remanufacturing process and help ensure that the products provided to customers by the
remanufacturing industry are dependable and of a consistent high quality.

5. Definitions and terms

Assembly
The process by which qualified parts and components (whether remanufactured or new) are
combined or connected together to create a component, subassembly, assembly, system or
remanufactured product.
Component
Two or more parts combined or connected together to create or be incorporated into a
subassembly, assembly, system or remanufactured product.
Core
A worn, failed, or end-of-use part, component, assembly, or product of a branded or Original
Equipment Manufacturer product that is retained with the objective of restoring or improving
its original functionality through remanufacturing, or for use as a source of components or
parts for a remanufactured product. A core may have already been placed on the market and
used, been damaged after production but before sale, or been subject to an extended shelf life.
During reverse logistics, a core is protected, handled and identified for remanufacturing to
avoid damage and to preserve its value. A core is not waste or scrap and is not intended to be
reused before being remanufactured.
Disassembly
Complete sequential removal of componentsparts of an assembled product into its constituent
materials, components and/ or parts.
Part
The smallest, indivisible unit of a remanufactured product; individual parts may be combined
or connected together to create a component or incorporated into a subassembly, assembly,
system, or remanufactured product.
Remanufacturing
Remanufacturing is a comprehensive and rigorous industrial process by which a previously
sold, leased, used, worn, or non-functional product or componentpart is returned to a likenew or better-than-new condition, from both a quality and performance
perspective, through a controlled, reproducible and sustainable process in conformance with
the specifications listed in Section 6 of this standard.
Reverse engineering
The process of analyzing the construction, operation, technical specifications and technological
principles of a product in order to recreate or copy the product in the absence of the original
design specifications.3
The process of reverse engineering may be prohibited for certain industry sectors or products
