TMF667 Document Management API Conformance Profile v4.0.0

This document describes the meta-data of a Document, such as the name, creation date and lifecycle status. The (typically binary) body of this document (such as a Word.doc, PDF, Video clip, or Image) will be held in the associated Attachment(s) either by Ref or Value. If by value – the binary content is held in the Attachment.content.

If by reference, the Attachment.url might point to a (file:) or remote (http:) pointer to the Document media. A Document may be associated with a DocumentSpecification, which will detail the characteristics of that type of Document (an Image may have a width, height and format; a Video may have a length and format). A Document has a collection of Related Party’s, for roles such as author, reviewer, publisher, and a lifecycle status to take the document through a simple set of production stages.
