When true, apply to Sunday. The attributes of the OTA DateTimeSpan data type are based on the W3C base data types of timeInstant and timeDuration. 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.

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].

Used to indicate whether the request is for the Test or Production system. For all OTA versioned messages, the version of the message is indicated by a decimal value. A unique identifier to relate all messages within a transaction (e.g. this would be sent in all request and response messages that are part of an on-going transaction). Used to identify the sequence number of the transaction as assigned by the sending system; allows for an application to process messages in a certain order or to request a resynchronization of messages in the event that a system has been off-line and needs to retrieve messages that were missed.
