For GSMP/GDSN Business Requirements Group (BRG) members who are eligible to vote, the following eBallots have been posted in the GS1 Community Room:   

CR 10-155 eBallot, GDSN BRG

The eBallot for CR 10-155 begins June-16-2010 and ends June-30-2010. Proposal: Expand the ‘GDSN Regulatory Compliance Extension’ to make it possible for an information provider to use it to communicate multiple acts and agencies for which multiple permit numbers could also be communicated. The current model does not support cases where products comply to different regulatory acts given by different organisations. This change is already scheduled to be solved by the next major release of GDSN; this change request is submitted to ensure this necessary upgrade is considered sooner, for the next maintenance release (MR4). This eBallot contains a link to CR 10-155 in the CR system, and the Business Requirement Spreadsheet.  Please cast your eBallot by 3:30 PM ET on June-30-2010 Close of eBallot - Simple Level of Impact 3.
