statusDateTime

RIXML 2.5 Attribute

Required

Definition

Used consistently as `dateTime` (required)

StatusInfodateTime

Indicates the date and time at which the status was assigned. It is expressed using ISO 8601 as refined by the World Wide Web Consortium's note http://www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-datetime. In addition, RIXML requires the use of Zulu time or Z-time (GMT +/- n hours:minute:seconds). All times are absolute and easier to compute, rather than using a relative (i.e. 08:30 +5) time.

Design Decisions

The statusDateTime attribute was made required and configured to use ISO 8601 with mandatory Zulu time format

Accurate timestamping of status changes is essential for tracking product lifecycle events, and standardized absolute time format ensures consistent temporal processing across different systems and time zones

Semantic Relationships

Triggers Action1 relationship

When adding a new StatusInfo element with an updated statusDateTime, the currentStatusIndicator must be updated so only one StatusInfo remains marked as current
