Scope of Certification

 

Guide to Completing the Conformance Statement Questionnaire

 

Do I need to complete this entire document? No – this document includes all possible HTNG Web Services certifications and it is likely that only a few sections will apply to you.  All certifications require the implementation of at least one technical specification, and some may require multiple. 

 

For each technical specification implemented, you must complete the questions listed in the table below. For example, if you are certifying to the Back Office Integration technical specification, you must complete questions 66-75. 

 

Many technical specifications define two or more identified roles that systems may play in an interface transaction.  However, most systems will typically implement only one (or a subset) of the available roles.  Select the appropriate role(s) for the functionality you are looking to certify and only complete the questions pertaining to that/those role(s).

Q

If Q43 was answered Yes, applicants may also optionally describe how they are used:

Applicants are expected to describe the use of TPA extensions in their submission if these extensions are used to implement functionality that is:

  • currently being reviewed by HTNG (or the OpenTravel Alliance) for possible inclusion in a future release of the specification
  • is expected to be submitted to HTNG (or the OpenTravel Alliance) for consideration for inclusion in a future release of the specification
  • is available  to 3rd parties in the public domain to use freely in their interfaces to this and other products

Applicants are advised not to describe, in detail, use of TPA extensions for functionality that they consider to be intellectual property of their own or partner organizations; or where such description would violate partnership agreements or applicable copyright laws. They should, however, still indicate that they are using TPA extensions (in Q43 above).
