Financial services — Universal financial industry message scheme — Part 8: ASN.1 generation

ISO 20022-8:2013 describes the transformation rules to generate ASN.1 abstract syntax from an ISO 20022 compliant MessageDefinition. The generated abstract syntax is for the description and validation of Messages. The transformation rules are a transformation from Level 3 to Level 4. It is a deterministic transformation, meaning that the resulting ASN.1 is completely predictable for a given MessageDefinition. There is neither manual input to the transformation itself nor manual adjustment to the result of the transformation. ISO 20022-8:2013 is the ASN.1 equivalent of ISO 20022-4:2013. In ISO 20022-4:2013 the abstract syntax generated is XML Schema; in ISO 20022-8:2013 it is ASN.1. In ISO 20022-4:2013 the only encoding supported is UTF-8 XML; in ISO 20022-8:2013 there are multiple encodings supported for ASN.1. These include all the standard encodings, but in addition the ability to register custom encodings in ECN.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 20022-8 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 68, Financial services.
ISO 20022 consists of the following parts, under the general title Financial services — Universal financial

ISO 20022-8:2013(E)
Introduction
This International Standard defines a scalable, methodical process to ensure consistent descriptions of
messages throughout the financial services industry.
The purpose of this International Standard is to describe precisely and completely the externally observable
aspects of financial services messaging in a way that can be verified independently against operational
messaging.
The trigger for the creation of this International Standard was the rapid growth in the scale and sophistication
of messaging within financial services during the 1990s using ISO 15022. The financial services industry (from
here on referred to as "the industry") created the first version of this International Standard as the successor to
ISO 15022 in response to that trigger. Since ISO 15022, the industry has broadened the scope from securities
to the entire industry for this International Standard.
This International Standard is based on open technology standards, which historically have evolved more
rapidly than the industry itself. Consequently, this International Standard adopted a model-driven approach
where the model of the industry's messaging can evolve separately from the evolution of the messaging
technology standards. The period during which this International Standard has emerged followed the
widespread adoption of the World Wide Web (the Web) for business. XML (eXtensible Mark-up Language)
emerged as the de facto standard for document representation on the Web and it became the first syntax for
ISO 20022.
The modelling process is further refined into three levels which, in addition to the messaging technology
standard, is why this International Standard is based on four levels: the Scope level, the Conceptual level, the
Logical level and the Physical level.
This four-level approach is based on the first four levels of the Zachman Framework. The remaining two levels
of the Zachman Framework are equivalent to the implementations and the operational levels, respectively.
In ISO 20022-1, the first, second and third levels are described in UML (Unified Modelling Language) because
it is widely supported and supports multiple levels of abstraction. The models created in accordance with this
International Standard are technology independent in that they do not require any particular physical
expression or implementation. Such models aim to describe all parts of the message exchange. The models
form the definition of the protocol between participants exchanging messages. This International Standard
defines a method that describes a process by which these models can be created and maintained by the
modellers.
The models and the Physical level artefacts are stored in a central repository, serviced by a Registration
Authority. This International Standard's repository is available on the World Wide Web and offers public
access for browsing.
The Repository is organized into two areas:
 A DataDictionary containing the industry model elements likely to have further or repeated use.
 A BusinessProcessCatalogue that contains models describing specific message definitions and business
processes, and physical syntax implementations.
This International Standard is organized into the following parts.
 ISO 20022-1 describes in MOF (Meta-Object Facility) the metamodel of all the models and the Repository.

---------------------- Page: 6 ----------------------
ISO 20022-8:2013(E)
 ISO 20022-2 covers the UML profile, a grounding of general UML into a specific subset defined for this
International Standard (to be used when UML is selected to define the models).
 ISO 20022-3 describes a modelling method to produce models for this International Standard.
 ISO 20022-4 covers XML schema generation rules to transform a Logical level model into a Physical level
description in the syntaxes.
 ISO 20022-5 covers logical model alignment and reverse engineering of existing message syntaxes.
 ISO 20022-6 covers message transport characteristics that define the quality of service required by the
business process definitions so that they can operate successfully.
 ISO 20022-7 describes the process of managing the registration of models and physical syntax
implementations.
 This part of ISO 20022 gives ASN.1 syntax generation rules to transform a Logical level model into a
Physical level description in ASN.1.

Part 8:
ASN.1 generation
1 Scope
This part of ISO 20022 describes the transformation rules to generate ASN.1 abstract syntax from an
ISO 20022 compliant MessageDefinition. The generated abstract syntax is for the description and validation of
Messages.
The transformation rules are a transformation from Level 3 to Level 4. It is a deterministic transformation,
meaning that the resulting ASN.1 is completely predictable for a given MessageDefinition. There is neither
manual input to the transformation itself nor manual adjustment to the result of the transformation.
This part of ISO 20022 is the ASN.1 equivalent of ISO 20022-4. In ISO 20022-4 the abstract syntax generated
is XML Schema; in this part of ISO 20022 it is ASN.1. In ISO 20022-4 the only encoding supported is UTF-8
XML; in this part there are multiple encodings supported for ASN.1. These include all the standard encodings,
but in addition the ability to register custom encodings in ECN.
2 Normative references
The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated
references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced
document (including any amendments) applies.
ISO/IEC 8825-5:2008, Information technology — ASN.1 encoding rules: Mapping W3C XML schema
definitions into ASN.1 — Part 5
ISO 20022-1, Financial services — Universal financial industry message scheme — Part 1: Metamodel
W3C Recommendation: XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes Second Edition, (28 October 2004)
3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in ISO 20022-1 apply.
NOTE Within ASN.1 notation, XSD refers to the XSD Module defined by ISO/IEC 8825-5.
4 Background
Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) is an International Standard and flexible notation that describes data
structures for representing, encoding, transmitting and decoding data. It provides a set of rules for describing
© ISO 2013 – All rights reserved 1

---------------------- Page: 8 ----------------------
ISO 20022-8:2013(E)
the structure of objects that are independent of machine-specific encoding techniques and it is a precise,
formal notation that removes ambiguities.
ASN.1 is a joint ISO/IEC and ITU-T standard, originally defined in 1984 as part of CCITT X.409:1984. ASN.1
constituted its own standard, X.208, in 1988 due to wide applicability. The substantially revised 1995 version
is covered by the X.680 series. The current version is backward compatible with the 1995 version.
ISO/IEC 8824 covers the ASN.1 abstract syntax; ISO/IEC 8825 covers encodings for the ASN.1 abstract
syntax. The abstract syntax is roughly analogous to XML Schema, and the encodings roughly analogous to
XML. The XML Schema Definition Language (XSD) Recommendation is written in terms of the XML
Recommendation, which makes substituting XML for a different encoding impractical. XSD effectively limits
the encoding to XML.
Parts 1 to 5 of ISO 20022-5 published in 2004 use only one syntax, XML Schema, and only one encoding,
UTF-8 encoded XML. Support for ASN.1 has been added to ISO 20022 in order to support scenarios in which
its syntax and encodings are more suitable. It is up to users of this International Standard to decide for which
scenarios ASN.1 is suitable.
The consensus that led to the inclusion of ASN.1 was a history of its usage in messaging, good support, and a
reputation for small and fast to parse messages. Encoding Control Notation had been identified as a way to
support existing encodings within 20022 without compromising the abstract syntax.
The addition of multiple encodings to ISO 20022 gives up wire level compatibility in return for broadening the
domain in which ISO 20022 can standardize the Business Process and Message Definitions. The Messages
remain syntactically compatible, which is less than wire-level compatible and more than semantically
compatible. In practice, we expect an ISO 20022 Messaging Library to be identical for encodings based on
ASN.1 and XSD.
ASN.1 may be used as a schema language for XML. The generated ASN.1 Abstract Syntax will contain XER
tags to guide the encoding as XML. An XML Message will be equivalent, whether encoded from the
ISO 20022 XSD or the ISO 20022 ASN.1 Abstract Syntax. For any Message expressed in ASN.1, when
encoded to XML using XER, will produce an XML Message that is valid against the XSD for the same
Message Definition. It should not matter whether the XML is produced using the XSD or ASN.1 as the ASN.1
Abstract Syntax and XSD are equivalent through their XML being compatible; the design of the ASN.1 is
limited to features and design idioms with a direct equivalent in XSD. The scopes of an ASN.1 Module and an
XSD Schema namespace are equivalent.
The ASN.1 generation takes a single parameter as input, which is a MessageSet. The output of the
generation is ASN.1 Abstract Syntax.
Each Message Definition is mapped to a single Module containing a single PDU. Each Module is stored in a
separate file with a file extension of ".asn".
Each MessageSet is mapped to a collection of PDUs. Each MessageSet is stored as a Zip file containing all
the ".asn" files for the MessageDefinitions.
The default encodings are Aligned PER and XML using XER. The use of every other encoding shall be
Registered. Any encoding that is not an International Standard shall also be described using ECN and that
description shall be Registered.
NOTE This part of ISO 20022 explains how a given MessageDefinition will be mapped into ASN.1; it does not explain
how to create a MessageDefinition. This information can be found in ISO 20022-3.

ISO 20022-8:2013(E)
5 ISO 20022 transformation rules for MessageSet
5.1 Registration and Repository
ASN.1 is present in the Repository as a SyntaxScheme. Every ISO/IEC 8825 Encoding shall be added to the
Repository as an EncodingScheme for the ASN.1 Syntax Scheme. The Registration Authority may register
additional EncodingSchemes in the Repository for ASN.1 if they can be completely and precisely described in
ECN. The definition in ECN shall be included in the Repository.
5.2 Preconditions
The input parameter to the generation is a single Message Set.
The MessageSet used as input for the transformation is a valid instance of the MessageSet metaclass.
5.3 Transformation constraints
The generated Abstract Syntax contains a Comment at the start of the document containing metadata. This
information comes from the generator, not the MessageSet.
 The ISO 20022 RA issued release number.
EXAMPLE R6.1.0.2.
 The generation date in ISO 8601 format.
EXAMPLE 2009-06-30Z.
 Documentation text (optional). The content of this field is undefined in this International Standard.
EXAMPLE R6.1.0.2 2009-06-30Z.
The Abstract Syntax is a syntactical representation of the MessageDefinition. The Abstract Syntax does not
contain the full semantics of a Message. The MessageDefinition is always the definitive description of the
semantics of a Message.
The Abstract Syntax is at Level 4 of the ISO 20022 levels. Information about types such as Message
Components and Message Elements that are common across Message Definitions is lost at Level 4. For
example, the commonality of a single Message Element in two different Message Definitions will be lost in the
Abstract Syntax because they will generate to separate Modules for each Message Definition. The semantic
relationship between PDUs can only be understood at Level 3 and Level 2.
All Types appear in the ASN.1 in alphabetical order, using the ASN.1 Type Name as the sort key.
5.4 Module Header
5.4.1 General
Each item in the Module Header appears on a separate line.
5.4.2 Module Name
The Module Name is the concatenation of "ISO20022-" and the MessageDefinitionIdentifier property.
© ISO 2013 – All rights reserved 3

---------------------- Page: 10 ----------------------
ISO 20022-8:2013(E)
The resulting Module Name might require alterations to be legal ASN.1:
a) if the first character of the Module Name is not an an alphabetic character, then add a prefix of "U";
b) if the first character is a lower case alphabetic character, then convert it to its equivalent upper case
alphabetic character;
c) any other invalid characters in the name are substituted with hyphens.
NOTE 1 This step is necessary as ASN.1 has tighter requirements for a Module Name than ISO 20022 has for a
Message Definition Identifier.
NOTE 2 If the Module Name ever changes, a) and b) become effective. Until then, they bring no value.
EXAMPLE ISO20022-AccountDetailsConfirmationV02.
5.4.3 Module identification
Each Module is identified by an Object Identifier. The Object Identifier comes from the Message Definition's
OID property.
EXAMPLE AccountDetailsConfirmationV02 {iso(1) standard(0) unifi(20022) accountDetailsConfirmationV02(12345) }.
5.4.4 Definition of the tagging environment
The tagging environment is defined as "XER INSTRUCTIONS" and "AUTOMATIC TAGS".
5.4.5 Definition of the extensibility environment
All XSD datatypes used in the MessageSet are Imported from OID {joint-iso-itu-t(2) asn1(1) specification(0)
modules(0) xsd-module(2)}.
The Module for XSD is always generated; the name of the document is always XSDv2.asn.
NOTE The name of the document is the filename for a file system. The Imports for the generated Module include
every type from the XSD Module used.
The Imports include any type XSD type used.
5.5 Granularity of Modules
There is one well-formed and valid ASN.1 Module per MessageDefinition.
NOTE 1 The declaration of which types are PDUs is not declared in an ASN.1 Module. The generated Module will not
indicate which types are PDUs.
NOTE 2 For ISO 20022 any generated ASN.1 Type not referenced by another Type can be considered to be a PDU.
This holds true because this International Standard only generates types referred to directly or indirectly from the Message
Definition.
NOTE 3 The PDU is analogous to the XML Schema generation's global root element, derived from
MessageDefinition.rootElement.
5.6 Encoding Messages
5.6.1 Encoding
ASN.1 is to be added to the Repository as a SyntaxScheme.
4 © ISO 2013 – All rights reserved

---------------------- Page: 11 ----------------------
ISO 20022-8:2013(E)
Every ISO/IEC 8825 Encoding is to be added to the Repository as an EncodingScheme for the ASN.1 Syntax
Scheme.
The Registration Authority may register additional EncodingSchemes in the Repository for ASN.1 if they can
be completely and precisely described in ECN. The definition in ECN shall be included in the Repository.
An ISO 20022 Valid Message shall comply with a SyntaxScheme and EncodingScheme in the Repository. No
other SyntaxScheme or EncodingSchemes are valid for ISO 20022.
5.7 Completeness
The list of transformation rules described in this clause is complete, which means that no other transformation
rules are applicable. Therefore, no other information may be added to the ASN.1 outside of what is allowed by
the transformation rules given below.
The Module is a representation of the MessageDefinition.
5.8 Method
5.8.1 General
A MessageSet is composed of a limited number of distinct modeling patterns (see ISO 20022-1, Figure 7 for a
depiction of the Message Metamodel).
By defining the transformation rules from those patterns to ASN.1, any MessageSet and its
MessageDefinitions can be transformed into its corresponding ASN.1 Modules.
5.8.2 Relationship between metamodel concepts and ASN.1 artefacts
5.8.2.1 MessageSet
Each MessageSet is transformed into an artefact of MIME type application/zip containing a file for the
MessageDefinition Module and a single file for the XSD Library Module.
5.8.2.2 MessageDefinition
The file name for the MessageDefinition Module is the MessageDefinitionIdentifier with an extension of ".asn".
EXAMPLE camt.001.040.01.asn.
Each MessageDefinition Module contains a root type with the value of Property rootElement.
