[Definition:] The timeDuration datatype represents a combination of year, month, day and time values representing a single duration of time, encoded as a single string. [Lexical Representation] The lexical representation for timeDuration is the [ISO 8601] extended format PnYn MnDTnH nMnS, where nY represents the number of years, nM the number of months, nD the number of days, 'T' is the date/time separator, nH the number of hours, nM the number of minutes and nS the number of seconds. The number of seconds can include decimal digits to arbitrary precision. As an example, 7 months, 2 days, 2hours and 30 minutes would be expressed as P0Y7M2DT2H30M0S. Truncated representations are allowed provided they conform to ISO 8601 format. Time periods, i.e. specific durations of time, can be represented by supplying two items of information: a start instant and a duration or a start instant and an end instant or an end instant and a duration. The OTA standards use the XML mapping that provides for two elements to represent the specific period of time; a startInstant and a duration. The starting value of the time span. The lexical representation for timeDuration is the [ISO 8601] extended format PnYn MnDTnH nMnS, where nY represents the number of years, nM the number of months, nD the number of days, 'T' is the date/time separator, nH the number of hours, nM the number of minutes and nS the number of seconds. The number of seconds can include decimal digits to arbitrary precision. As an example, 7 months, 2 days, 2hours and 30 minutes would be expressed as P0Y7M2DT2H30M0S. Truncated representations are allowed provided they conform to ISO 8601 format. The ending value of the time span.

Further, this expression should have an additional contraint which contains the data of the node. This will provide the offending data back to systems that cannot maintain the original message. This entity represents success in processing. This entity represents failure in processing. If present, this refers to a table of coded values exchanged between applications to identify errors or warnings. If present, this URL refers to an online description of the error that occurred. If present, recommended values are those enumerated in the non-versioned Standard Error message, (NotProcessed | Incomplete | Complete | Unknown) however, the data type is designated as CDATA for versioned messages responses, recognizing that trading partners may identify additional status conditions not included in the enumeration. If present, this attribute may identify an unknown or misspelled tag that caused an error in processing. It is recommended that the Tag attribute use XPath notation to identify the location of a tag in the event that more than one tag of the same name is present in the document. Alternatively, the tag name alone can be used to identify missing data [Type=ReqFieldMissing].
