BR-BT-00500-0309 rule - invalid string restriction on production - immediate fix needed

[mgakt]

Dear OP,

Dear OP,

We are using SDK 1.13 and have already found a serious issue. We understand that we can't have the "test" string in the BT-500-Organization-Company field. More precisely, we can't have (T|t)(E|e)(S|s)(T|t) any form of "test" string. This rule has to be switched off immediately, as economic operators and contracting authorities have this string on their legal names.

The exact error message was the following:

<svrl:failed-assert id="BR-BT-00500-0309"
location="/can:ContractAwardNotice/ext:UBLExtensions/ext:UBLExtension/ext:ExtensionContent/efext:EformsExtension/efac:Organizations/efac:Organization[4]/efac:Company/cac:PartyName/cbc:Name" test="not(fn:matches(normalize-space(.[./@languageID != '']/normalize-space(text())), '.*(T|t)(E|e)(S|s)(T|t).*'))" role="WARN" flag="LAWFULNESS">
<svrl:text>'Hivatalos név' (BT-500-Organization-Company) nem tartalmazhatja a 'test' szót</svrl:text>

This is a deliberate change in the lawfulness rules to pick up test notices that buyers or eSenders try to publish on TED. Please note that lawfulness checks are warnings and the notices are not rejected.

Notices with warnings are then checked manually by the OP team to determine if the notice is valid or not. There will be some false positives for a very small number of organisations that have the string "test" in their official name but they will not be rejected by OP. We currently validate lawfulness warnings within one working day so there is little or no delay in publishing.

In CZ we are facing same problem. Can you please tell mi what was the purpose/reason to create such rule? Personally I can not identify even one raeson😉 Btw, names of companies should not be matter of validation controls at all in my opinion.

As this not a problem in the SDK, I'm converting this to a discussion.
