ISO 20022 code lists update

  • 1.  ISO 20022 code lists update

    Posted 07-29-2009 22:16
    I'm still behind in getting together a document on the changes I've  
    proposed to genericode, but I wanted to mention that I've been proposed as  
    chair of a subgroup of the ISO 20022 Technical Support Group (TSG) that  
    will initially be looking at how ISO 20022 code lists should be  
    published.  Genericode is a format that a number of people have  
    recommended, but we have a requirement that the code list format needs to  
    be easily creatable and maintainable by non-technical members of ISO  
    working groups.  What that means in practice is
    
      * can't be using an XML editor;
      * could be using MS Office, OpenOffice isn't an option (impossible to get  
    rolled out to people's desktops);
      * could perhaps be a simple desktop app;
      * could be Web based (forms of some kind?)
    
    I just wondered if any one had any suggestions for what has worked for  
    them in practice.  I know Ken has done import/export for OpenOffice, I  
    wasn't sure if anyone had done the same kind of thing already for MS  
    Office (to save me the trouble).  Alternatively, anyone done anything with  
    online forms?  Thanks,
    
    Cheers, Tony.
