Dispatch record

Pre-release. This site describes standard version 0.7.0-dev, which is in development and may change before version 1.0.0.

The record of trees packed at a nursery for one destination site: the supplying nursery, the site (ncgs:recordsSite), lines of species, quantity and container size, the packing list and a photograph of the packed stock. A truckload for several sites is several dispatches. Observed at the nursery; the consignment at delivery names the dispatch it received.

Property Required Repeatable Value Message
restatement reason no no string
restates no no any value A record restates at most one earlier record (ADR-0018).

Rules

  • A dispatch carries the supplier’s packing list or delivery note, and a photograph of the packed stock, as evidence items.
  • The supplier of a dispatch is a nursery: an agent in the nursery role (ADR-0007).
  • The tags issued with a dispatch never outnumber the trees in its lines (ADR-0003).
  • A record moves to another site only by a supervisor’s or an office analyst’s correction in one role, observed at one zoned time, to a registered site current when it moves, and with each thing its restatement group introduced before it withdrawn or replaced by the move or a correction before it (ADR-0027).
  • A restatement is a record of the same type as the record it restates (ADR-0018).
  • A restatement is about the same site as the record it restates, or follows in its restatement group, unless a supervisor’s or an office analyst’s correction moves it (ADR-0018, ADR-0027).
  • A restatement is observed after the record it restates: it is the later observation that governs (ADR-0018).
  • A restatement says why the fact is restated, in a sentence or more (ADR-0018).
  • A site registration never moves: its correction registers the site its original registered, and a site registered in error is replaced (ADR-0027).

Dispatch line

One species or cultivar at one container size in a dispatch, with the number of trees packed. Carries no living-trees count: that is confirmed by the recipient at delivery, on the consignment line.

  • The species or cultivar on a dispatch line must be a concept in the NCGS species scheme (no free-text other).
