Peppol Reporting support library. Peppol Reporting is the process of collecting, aggregating and transmitting Peppol Reports to OpenPeppol.

This library supports the following reports:

This library does not deal with the transmission of Reports. That needs to be done with phase4 or another AS4 solution. See the phase4 Wiki for detailed guidance on integration with this project.

This library requires Java 11 and Maven to build.

How to use it

This library offers a Java domain model for EUSR and TSR reports.

Note: phase4 v2.2.2 and onwards has support for this project.

Data collection

Data collection needs to happen into your Access Point instances.

The data for reporting needs to be collected in instances of class PeppolReportingItem. For each sent or received Peppol transmission, such a PeppolReportingItem needs to be collected, and persisted.

Each PeppolReportingItem consists of the following elements:

  • OffsetDateTime m_aExchangeDTUTC - timing of the exchange in UTC; for TSR and EUSR
  • EReportingDirection m_eDirection - direction of the exchange; for TSR and EUSR
  • String m_sC2ID - Peppol Seat ID of C2; for TSR only
  • String m_sC3ID - Peppol Seat ID of C3; for TSR only
  • String m_sDocTypeIDScheme and String m_sDocTypeIDValue - Document Type ID of the exchange; for TSR and EUSR
  • String m_sProcessIDScheme and String m_sProcessIDValue - Process ID of the exchange; for TSR and EUSR
  • String m_sTransportProtocol - the transport protocol used; for TSR only
  • String m_sC1CountryCode - the country code of C1; for TSR and EUSR
  • String m_sC4CountryCode - the country code of C4 - only required for received messages; for TSR and EUSR
  • String m_sEndUserID - the end user ID to aggregate on - this ID is not part of any report; for EUSR only

To facilitate this collection, the submodule peppol-reporting-api exists.

Data storage

The created reporting item must be stored somewhere, to be able to retrieve them later.

This project comes with different backends for storing PeppolReportingItem objects, each in a separate submodule. Each submodule is described below.

To choose a submodule, it needs to be added as a Maven dependency. The main logic is loaded via SPI. Please make sure to only use one submodule at a time - storing to multiple backends is currently not supported out of the box.

Alternatively you can implement your own Reporting backend implementation, by implementing the SPI interface com.helper.peppol.reporting.api.backend.IPeppolReportingBackendSPI defined in the peppol-reporting-api submodule.

Storage in MongoDB

Submodule peppol-reporting-backend-mongodb stores data in a MongoDB. This submodule was introduced in version 2.1.0.

It creates one collection called: reporting-items

It supports the following configuration properties:

  • peppol.reporting.mongodb.connectionstring: the connection string to use to connect to MongoDB
  • peppol.reporting.mongodb.dbname: the MongoDB database name to use
  • peppol.reporting.mongodb.collection (since v2.2.1): the MongoDB collection name to use. Defaults to reporting-items.

Storage in Redis

Submodule peppol-reporting-backend-redis stores data in Redis. Make sure you use persistent storage for this one. This submodule was introduced in version 2.1.0.

The used Redis keys are:

  • peppol:reporting:itemidx - counter for unique IDs
  • peppol:reporting:item:* - represents a single reporting item hash map
  • peppol:reporting:* - contains a list of reporting item keys of a single day

It supports the following configuration properties:

  • peppol.reporting.redis.host: the Redis host to connect to
  • peppol.reporting.redis.port: the Redis port to connect to

Storage in memory

Submodule peppol-reporting-backend-inmemory stores data in memory only and is not persistent. This submodule was introduced in version 2.1.1.

This module is mainly meant for testing purposes.

Data aggregation

To aggregate data for a single Reporting Period, all the matching PeppolReportingItem objects need to be collected first. All the matching items need to be fed into the respective report builder.

Via the builder EndUserStatisticsReport.builder (), the report of type EndUserStatisticsReportType can be created.

Via the builder TransactionStatisticsReport.builder (), the report of type TransactionStatisticsReportType can be created.

Report XML Serialization

The JAXB generated domain model classes reside in the packages com.helger.peppol.reporting.jaxb.eusr.v110 and com.helger.peppol.reporting.jaxb.tsr.v101. This domain model can be read from and written to XML documents via the marshaller classes EndUserStatisticsReport110Marshaller and TransactionStatisticsReport101Marshaller.

Report Validation

Additionally, the Schematron compatibility can be verified using the classes EndUserStatisticsReportValidator and TransactionStatisticsReportValidator. All checks are performed against the default Schematrons provided by OpenPeppol.

Glossary

  • EUSR - End User Statistics Report
  • TSR - Transaction Statistics Report
  • Report - Document containing OpenPeppol reporting information
  • Reporting - The process of transmitting a Report to OpenPeppol
  • Reporting Period - The period for which reporting data is to be collected and transmitted to OpenPeppol

Maven usage

Add the following to your pom.xml to use this artifact, replacing x.y.z with the real version:

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.helger.peppol</groupId>
  <artifactId>peppol-reporting</artifactId>
  <version>x.y.z</version>
</dependency>

Usage as Maven BOM:

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.helger.peppol</groupId>
  <artifactId>peppol-reporting-parent-pom</artifactId>
  <version>x.y.z</version>
  <type>pom</type>
  <scope>import</scope>
</dependency>

Note: all v1.x releases used the group ID com.helger only.
