General description

Name:	Invoice
Submitted by:	AldoGangemi, JoseManuelGomez
Also Known As:
Intent:	To represent the core attributes of an invoice
Domains:	Business
Competency Questions:	What are the transactions involved in this invoice? What is the order this invoice is referring to? What is the line item for this invoice? What is the amount of the transactions involved in this invoice? What currency is applied to this invoice?
Solution description:	-
Reusable OWL Building Block:	1 (748)
Consequences:	Heterogeneous models for invoices can be aligned to this pattern, which then acts as a semantic facade to different invoice management applications. The Context class can be used to gather temporal,spatial and organizational data. Otherwise, other specific patterns can be composed in order to deal with that.
Scenarios:	An invoice refers to transactions related to an ordered item for a certain amount of currency, and is grounded in a (legally valid) document.
