CR 08-215 - Target Market subdivision

The eBallot for CR 08-215 was motioned to eballot by the GDSN BRG on 27-April-2010;  there were no comments received during Public review. Proposal:  The current data synchronization standard does not clearly address how to perform two major functions when the Target Market Subdivision Code is populated in one or both of the Catalog Item Subscription (CIS) and Catalog Item Publication (CIP) messages. The distribution of subscriptions to data pools by the Global Registry, and the publication / subscription match processes need to be fully aligned across all data pools. Due to the complexity of using the Subdivision in this processing, remove this functionality from the Subscription and Publication messages and processes. Retain the attribute in the Registration message (RCI) and Global Registry. This processing should be a requirement of all data pools in the network and added to the GDSN certification use cases.

NOTE: As a short term interim solution, the Global Registry will revise the subscription match process to exclude Target market Subdivision Code values from the match criteria. For any subscriptions or item registrations, the Global Registry will only match to the Target market Code value, not the Subdivision Code. The longer term solution will be to additionally remove the Target Market Subdivision Code from the GDSN Catalog Item Publication (CIP) and Catalog Item Subscription (CIS) messages.
