Packages
SOFiE integrates (refer to the SOFiE Architecture) a mechanism
for recognizing, validating and naming files.
Depending on his SOFiE contract, the sender can only transfer certain types of file.
For every file type SOFiE defines a naming convention and format of the file’s content that the sender
has to respect.
Not following the conventions will result in an error during the file transfer.
The main idea is to refuse at the sender’s premises unwanted files for the receiver (according
to receiver requirements given to Six-Payment-Services).
To simplify the management of SOFiE contracts, the allowed
file types are bundled into packages.
A package represents:
-
a particular service the SOFiE participant suscribres in his contract
-
a particular service that may be billed (refer to the official price list)
-
a particular service, allowing the exchange of files between defined participants
(Closed User Group)
-
a particular service, whithin only defined file types may be exchanged
A list of all packages as well as their detailed description is available at
Six-Payment-Services.
