The message defined in this standard, the LinkResourceAndWorkMessage, can be sent by any party that wishes to communicate a Resource-Work Link. The recipient of this message shall reply, in a timely manner with a LinkAcknowledgementMessage to inform the sender of the LinkResourceAndWorkMessage of the receipt of the message. Such LinkResourceAndWorkMessagess can be sent in reply to a LinkRequestMessage or based on any other trigger.
