PIP 7C1 — Distribute Production Status Report

PIP 7C1 — Distribute Production Status Report

RosettaNet choreography in cluster 7, transported on RNIF V02.00 and signed with S/MIME. Operational unit between ContractManufacturer and Manufacturer across the high-tech supply chain.

PIP purpose

PIP 7C1 distributes a periodic consolidated production report: planned volume, produced volume, variance, alerts. Macroscopic counterpart of PIP 6C2 focused on weekly or monthly reporting.

Message structure

The 7C1 choreography follows the RosettaNet action model:

  • Primary action: Production Status Report Notification Action
  • Signal: Receipt Acknowledgment (RNIF)
  • Response action: Receipt Acknowledgment

The action is wrapped in a multipart MIME RNIF V02.00 envelope signed with S/MIME. Here is a condensed view of the envelope:

Simplified XML example

Minimal PIP 7C1 payload for didactic purposes. The structural elements (fromRole, toRole, thisDocumentGenerationDateTime, and the PIP-specific business block) are required in any conformant implementation.

Transport and acknowledgment

Core of the standard: HTTPS POST to the partner endpoint or via AS2. S/MIME signature and Receipt Acknowledgment are systematic. PIP 7C1 is typically transported asynchronously.

The transport channel is typically AS2 or direct HTTPS (RNIF over HTTP). For a reference of the security layers in use, see the AS2 on ediverse page.

Use case

Jabil distributes to Cisco via PIP 7C1 a weekly production progress report at the Guadalajara EMS: 285,000 boards planned, 281,200 produced, variance −1.3%.
