The role code identifies the issuer's role. The list of role codes accepted by the PPF is taken from UNCL 3035.

The accepted role codes are:

• BY, if the declarant is a Buyer
• SE, if the declarant is a Seller

• If /ubl:Statement/cac:AccountingSupplierParty/cac:Party/cac:PartyLegalEntity/cbc:CompanyID is provided, then role is mapped as 'SE'
• If /ubl:Statement/cac:AccountingBuyerParty/cac:Party/cac:PartyLegalEntity/cbc:CompanyID is provided, then role is mapped as 'BY'
