Q: What's the meaning of respAgency "92" for the Supplier and "91" for the Buyer. Concerning the Buyer, the PartyId is our Customer number to the supplier concerned by the order ?
The Supplier is known as code 11111 by the Buyer. The Buyer is known as code 22222 by the Supplier. It
is not possible for the respAgency to equal 91 within the Supplier
element, as this would mean the code with which the supplier is known
by itself. The same is true for respAgency code 92 in the Buyer
element.

A: One can download CAP Examples for all the CAP messages from the Download page.
Q: Please provide clarification on the
proper interpretation of the 'action' attribute of a Line item in an
OrderResponse. Specifically, what are the circumstances where a
supplier should return "3 - changed" and "24 - accepted with
amendment"? Both imply that the original request was modified in some
way. The question is what was modified and how? Does one type of change
take precedence over another? Any clarifying documentation, examples or
use cases would be appreciated.
A:
Regarding the 'action' attribute in the OrderResponse Line element, for
all the actions ( 3, 5, 7, 24 ) one uses the QtyDiff element to explain
the reason for the action. An action '3 - changed' means that the
ordered item has changed and that the ordered item has therefore not
been accepted. The item will have to be reordered. An action '24 -
accepted with amendment' means that there are changes and that even
though there were changes the ordered item is processed.
