Classification schemes
To keep the sample files simple, we will base them on the following dummy example: There are two product groups, namely "brake linings" and "Kool-Stop cartridge inserts", the latter being a sub-group of the former. In addition, there is a "Kool-Stop V-Brake" discount group for bulk discounts. The request
https://b2.beispielserver.com/?BuyersID=127654&Password=secret&RequestName=GetClassificationSchemeRequestthen supplies the following result:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<GetClassificationSchemeResponse xmlns="urn:veloconnect:catalog-1.1" xmlns:vct="urn:veloconnect:transaction-1.0" xmlns:cac="urn:oasis:names:specification:ubl:schema:xsd:CommonAggregateComponents-1.0" xmlns:cbc="urn:oasis:names:specification:ubl:schema:xsd:CommonBasicComponents-1.0">

For an item, a reference to the product group is established via the ItemInformation element, such as in this sample response to a GetItemDetailsRequest.
