Seafood Module Receiving Event
Receiving events capture the receipt of one or more products that have been transported from one physical location to another. The seafood receiving event applies to seafood products being received at a land facility after being shipped from another land facility. More specific movements of products, such as a landing or transshipment of products, are defined in the wildcaught module.
Event Profile
A seafood receiving event is identified by the following event characteristics
KDE | Value |
type | ObjectEvent |
action | OBSERVE |
bizStep | receiving |
locationClassification of land facility and at least one product must have a productClassification of seafood.KDE Requirements
The following KDEs are required on the root of a seafood receiving event, in addition to the Core requirements.
| KDE | Description | Example Value |
|---|---|---|
| readPoint | A readPoint object with an id property equal to a geo formatted coordinate pair |
geo:37.860236,-123.144697 |
| informationProvider | A URN formatted PGLN or GDST party identifier | urn:epc:id:sgln:08600031303.0.0, urn:gdst:example.org:party:example_prefix.0 |
Certificate Requirements
A seafood receiving event must carry at least one complete certificate in its certificationList. GDST 2.0 does not name certification types in its normative event profiles; the controlled list of supported values is maintained in the Certification Types article.
Source List Requirements
Both owning_party and location must be set on the source list. The source list is an array property of objects that have a type and source property. Entries in sourceList tie the shipment to originating locations and product owners.
| KDE | Description | Example Value |
|---|---|---|
| type | Indicates what is identified by the value, typically the owning party or location | urn:epcglobal:cbv:sdt:owning_party, urn:epcglobal:cbv:sdt:location |
| source | Either a PGLN or GDST party identifier to indicate the owning party or a GLN or GDST location identifier to indicate the location. | urn:epc:id:sgln:08600031303.0.0, urn:gdst:example.org:party:example_prefix.0, urn:gdst:example.org:location:loc:example_prefix.0 |
Example
[
{
"type": "urn:epcglobal:cbv:sdt:owning_party",
"source": "urn:gdst:traceability-solution.com:party:0048000.vessel_owner"
},
{
"type": "urn:epcglobal:cbv:sdt:location",
"source": "urn:gdst:traceability-solution.com:location:loc:0048000.fishing_vessel"
}
]Destination List Requirements
Both the owning_party and location must be set on the destination list. The destination list is an array property of objects that have a type and source property. Entries in destinationList tie the shipment to destination locations and product owners.
| KDE | Description | Example Value |
|---|---|---|
| type | Indicates what is identified by the value, typically the owning party or location | urn:epcglobal:cbv:sdt:owning_party, urn:epcglobal:cbv:sdt:location |
| destination | Either a PGLN or GDST party identifier to indicate the owning party or a GLN or GDST location identifier to indicate the location. | urn:epc:id:sgln:08600031303.0.0, urn:gdst:example.org:party:example_prefix.0, urn:gdst:example.org:location:loc:example_prefix.0 |
