In a B2B environment business partners interact with
each other by exchanging electronic business documents.
The agreements and commitments between the partner require
a certain order in the flow of business documents. This
flow - commonly known as choreography - often depends on
the actual content of a business document. E.g. the next step
depends on whether a price was stated in a quote document
or not in the step before. These characteristics usually affect
the states of a business entity - whether a quote is in state
provided or in state refused. The states of a business entity
usually define the next steps in the choreography of a collaborative
business process. Thus, it is important that the actual
business document content and resulting business entity
states are unambiguously defined in a global choreography.
In this paper we show how the modeling of business entity
state centric choreographies may be incorporated into
UN/CEFACT´s modeling methodology (UMM) - one of the
best known approaches to model global choreographies.
