[UR-WG] Usage Record 2 recommandation - aggregated records

[Xiaoyu Chen]

Dear Bart Heupers:

     We do have a draft document on aggregate usage record representation, which is available online at: https://forge.gridforum.org/sf/docman/do/listDocuments/projects.ur-wg/docman.root.current_drafts.aggregate_ur_schema 

     If you could have a reading and let's know whether it accommondates your requriements on aggregation/summarisation. The UR 2.0 is slowly getting into stage, which will revolutionise the existing UR 1.0 by reviewing more third-part accounting-related specifications. UR 2.0 also puts the aggregation schema in scope as well. Your initial comments are important for our future work in UR 2.0. 

     regards!

Subject: [UR-WG] Usage Record 2 recommandation - aggregated records
 
Dear Sirs,

In the DEISA accounting system we make use of the  OGF Usage Record
recommendation, als described in the Experiences document about OGF UR1
document.

For extensions and other accounting projects we need a format for
aggregate or summary records where we would like to adhere to standards
as much as possible. 

When searching for standard ways to represent aggregate records I came
across the attached documents.

I was wondering if there were any more recent information about the
development of Usage Record Format 2 and more specifically the format
for aggregate or summary records. 

If there any newer drafts or developments in this area, please let me
know 


Best regards,
