AbstractToday, different companies have created their own schemas to exchange business documents such as invoice or shipment notice. Therefore, those companies will have different styles of invoice and shipment notice documents. Companies that use XML documents to collect information of their buyers may use different names to reference invoice numbers. For example, some companies use "lnvNum" to reference an invoice number but other companies use "lnvNo". The problem is the difficulty to share business documents among companies so we try to make all companies use the same schema to exchange business documents together. In this paper, we try to create a market site that acts as the intermediary. Market site manages tasks between buyers and suppliers in B2B e-commerce such as exchange of business documents or search of the supplier's product catalog. We use xCBL standard instead of using XML schema so that all companies can use same standard to exchange documents between buyers and suppliers. The prototype will demonstrate how the market site also helps trading partners to exchange business documents automatically.
