EASYBIZ PROPERTY XML SCHEMA WITH AS4590 INCLUSION

This is one page of the Appendix B - Common Data Format "ADDRESS FORMAT"

AS4590 Address Data Elements
the ambiguity of whether to use the simple or complex address details - if the simple address formats are used then there are the problems of the different options for using Line 1, Line 2, Line 3, Line 4 - this is the same problem with the UN/EDIFACT Format.

This is why Legislation may be required to ensure that a consistent XML format is used by all Australian Government Agencies

This would support the US example when the US Government legislated in 1996 that all Government Agencies would use the ANSI-X12 Data Element Format to ensure that there was a consistent format.

In 2002 OIC members developed a standard XML Name and Address format for Software Developers.
