The type cac:ItemType has the child element vcc:ItemInformation to convey further information on an item. This element is structured as follows:

Rule: ItemInformation

• If vcc:InformationURL elements are used, the type of the specified links must be indicated by means of the vcc:Disposition element of type vcc:InformationDispositionType. A table of values permissible here is provided subsequently. Multiple nominations are possible if the linked document contains different types of information. When the "general" type is used, the element vcc:Description must provide a concise description of the type of information which can be obtained via the link.

• If vcc:ClassificationGroupMember or vcc:ScalePriceGroup elements are used, the operation GetClassificationScheme must be implemented.

• Association with a group in a classification scheme is communicated in the element vcc:ClassificationGroupMember by the IDs of the related scheme and the group. If membership exists in multiple groups of a scheme, the primaryGroup attribute must be true for no more than one group. In the case of a hierarchical group structure, only the association with the lowest group of the hierarchy must be communicated in each case.

• If the element vcc:ScalePriceGroup is used, individual prices in an order are determined by applying the price function defined for this article (refer to Rule: BasePriceType) not to the article's order quantity, but to the sum of the order quantities for all articles whose vcc:ScalePriceGroup element has the same content.
