CAN/CSA-ISO/IEC 18021:04 (R2022)

CSA Preface

Standards development within the Information Technology sector is harmonized with international standards development. Through the CSA Technical Committee on Information Technology (TCIT), Canadians serve as the Canadian Advisory Committee (CAC) on ISO/IEC Joint Technical Committee 1 on Information Technology (ISO/IEC JTC1) for the Standards Council of Canada (SCC), the ISO member body for Canada and sponsor of the Canadian National Committee of the IEC. Also, as a member of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), Canada participates in the International Telegraph and Telephone Consultative Committee (ITU-T).

This International Standard was reviewed by the CSA TCIT under the jurisdiction of the Strategic Steering Committee on Information Technology and deemed acceptable for use in Canada. (A committee membership list is available on request from the CSA Project Manager.) From time to time, ISO/IEC may publish addenda, corrigenda, etc. The CSA TCIT will review these documents for approval and publication. For a listing, refer to the CSA Information Products catalogue or CSA Info Update or contact a CSA Sales representative. This Standard has been formally approved, without modification, by the Technical Committee and has been approved as a National Standard of Canada by the Standards Council of Canada.

Scope

This International Standard defines user interface functions for management of database communication of an MBT client capable of interchanging data with an MBT server.

This International Standard is applicable to MBT clients.

This International Standard specifically defines the following two user interfaces.

- The user interface function for obtaining user approval in advance when MBT client's database is updated via a communication link, or when data in the MBT client's database is transmitted to another database.

- The user interface function for providing feedback to the user, after the MBT client's or the MBT server's database has been updated via a communication link, or data in MBT client's database has been transmitted to another database.
