7 7  The first change in the data and metadata message is one of terminology. In order to foster consistency in the standard, the names and namespaces of the data and metadata message have been changed. The namespaces now have a uniform format of /data/format and /metadata/format, where format is either generic or structured (i.e. the structure specific formats). This also applies to the message names as well, where the names follow the pattern of FormatData (e.g. StructuredData and GenericMetadata).

9 -The various data messages which existed in the standard have been harmonised into two general formats; generic and structured data. The generic data is much like it has been previously, only slightly modified to conform with the harmonised view on data. The structured data combined the principles of the previous versions compact and cross sectional formats into one more generalised format.

11 -The major shift from the previous version is now that all data can be exchanged as either an un-grouped collection oData structure and metadata structure-specific schemas are each based on one single core construct found in their respective structure-specific namespaces;f observations, each specifying a full key or it can be exchanged as data grouped into series with any single dimension placed at the observation level. This in effect, combined the abilities of the time series and cross sectional formats in the a single data format. This format also allows for multiple measure to be expressed when the observation dimension is the measure dimension defined in the data structured. The key differences from the previous versions is that this all is possible in a single data structure definition specific format, as well as being possible in the generic format as well. The goal was to make the structures as homogenous as possible.

13 -Another shift from the previous version in the manner in which the base data structure specific format is defined. In previous versions there was not structure defined, so one had to understand all of the requirements and read the specification in order to understand what could be expected in any structure specific format. In this version, that issue has been addressed. The base structures now impose a strict format on the data structure specific schemas. This is achieved much like the referencing structure in the common namespace through the use of unqualified elements. By the elements not existing in a namespace, the structure specific schemas can place the necessary restrictions of them while still being forced to adhere to prescribed structure. This means that not only are the structures able to perform the validation that is required, but that the messages will be much simpler to process as the format will always use the same element names.

15 -Finally, in order to allow for systems which wish to not process the new more flexible data format, time series only variations of both the generic and structured data sets exist. It is important to note that these structures are derived via restriction from the more generalised format. This means that a data set in the general format with the time dimension at the observation level will have exactly the same content as a time series only data set. The result of this is that there is no additional burden for processing the time series specific format it a system can process the more generalised format. These time series only data sets allow for time series only data messages to exist. These messages make it simple for system which, in the previous version of the standard, only used the time series formats to continue to do so.

17 -These same principles have been applied to the reference data messages as well. In the previous version of the standard there were major differences between the generic and metadata structure-specific formats; some of the differences caused some metadata sets were incompatible between versions. In this version the structures of the generic and metadata structure specific formats have been harmonised to the point where they are nearly identical. Yet, the structured format still provides the strong validation against the metadata structure that is intended. And, as with the data, the base metadata structure specific format now imposes a stricter structure on the generated schemas, making the structure specific instance simpler to process in a generic manner.

39 -**DataSetType: **DataSetType defines the structure of the generic data set. Data is organised into either a collection of series (grouped observations) or a collection of un-grouped observations. The organisation used is dependent on the structure specification in the header of the data message (which is referenced via the structureRef attribute). The structure specification states which data occurs at the observation level. If this dimension is "AllDimensions" then the data set must consist of a collection of un-grouped observations; otherwise the data set will contain a collection of series with the observations in the series disambiguated by the specified dimension at the observation level. This data set is capable of containing data (observed values) and/or documentation (attribute values). It is assumed that each series or un-grouped observation will be distinct in its purpose. For example, if series contains both data and documentation, it assumed that each series will have a unique key. If the series contains only data or only documentation, then it is possible that another series with the same key might exist, but with not with the same purpose (i.e. to provide data or documentation) as the first series.

318 -**//DataSetType//: **DataSetType is the abstract type which defines the base structure for any data structure definition specific data set. A derived data set type will be created that is specific to a data structure definition and the details of the organisation of the data (i.e. which dimension is the observation dimension and whether explicit measures should be used). Data is organised into either a collection of series (grouped observations) or a collection of un-grouped observations. The derived data set type will restrict this choice to be either grouped or un-grouped observations. If this dimension is "AllDimensions" then the derived data set type must consist of a collection of un-grouped observations; otherwise the data set will contain a collection of series with the observations in the series disambiguated by the specified dimension at the observation level. This data set is capable of containing data (observed values) and/or documentation (attribute values) and can be used for incremental updates and deletions (i.e. only the relevant updates or deletes are exchanged). It is assumed that each series or un-grouped observation will be distinct in its purpose. For example, if series contains both data and documentation, it assumed that each series will have a unique key. If the series contains only data or only documentation, then it is possible that another series with the same key might exist, but with not with the same purpose (i.e. to provide data or documentation) as the first series. This base type is designed such that derived types can be processed in a generic manner; it assures that data structure definition specific data will have a consistent structure. The group, series, and observation elements are unqualified, meaning that they are not qualified with a namespace in an instance. This means that in the derived data set types, the elements will always be the same, regardless of the target namespace of the schemas which defines these derived types. This allows for consistent processing of the structure without regard to what the namespace might be for the data structure definition specific schema. The data set can contain values for attributes which do not have an attribute relationship with any data structure definition components. These attribute values will exist in XML attributes in this element based on this type (DataSet). This is specified in the content model with the declaration of anyAttributes in the "local" namespace. The derived data set type will refine this structure so that the attributes are explicit. The XML attributes will be given a name based on the attribute's identifier. These XML attributes will be unqualified (meaning they do not have a namespace associated with them). To allow for generic processing, it is required that the only unqualified XML attributes in the derived data set type (outside of the standard data set attributes) be for attributes declared in the data structure definition. If additional attributes are required, these should be qualified with a namespace so that a generic application can easily distinguish them as not being meant to represent a data structure definition attribute.

These scopes are hierarchical and are (from the top down); DataStructure, ConstrainedDataStructure, Dataflow, and ProvisionAgreement. the hierarchy of these scopes represent the cascading level of constraints, which can restrict the valid values for components. For example, a data structure defines a dimension with a coded representation. A data flow might have a constraint associated with it which further restricts the values allowed from the referenced code list to a subset of the values allowed by the data structure definition. A provision agreement that is based on the dataflow might also have a constraint, which further restricts the subset of the codelist from the dataflow.

The observation must be provided a key, which is either a value for the dimension which is declared to be at the observation level if the observation is grouped, or a full set of values for all dimensions in the data structure definition if the observation is un-grouped. This key should disambiguate the observation within the context in which it is defined (e.g. there should not be another observation with the same dimension value in a series).

The observation must be provided a key, which is either a value for the [[dimension>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Dimension.WebHome]] which is declared to be at the observation (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)level(%%) if the observation is grouped, or a full set of values for all [[dimensions>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Dimension.WebHome]] in the [[data structure definition>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data structure definition.WebHome]] if the observation is un-grouped. This key should disambiguate the observation within the context in which it is defined (e.g. there should not be another observation with the same [[dimension>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Dimension.WebHome]] value in a series). The observation can contain an observed value and/or [[attribute>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Attribute.WebHome]] values.

The [[dimension>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Dimension.WebHome]] value(s) which make up the key and the [[attribute>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Attribute.WebHome]] values associated with the key [[dimension>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Dimension.WebHome]](s) or the primary [[measure>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Measure.WebHome]] will be represented with XML [[attributes>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Attribute.WebHome]].

If the [[data structure definition>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data structure definition.WebHome]] specific schema requires that explicit [[measures>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Measure.WebHome]] be used (only possible when the [[measure>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Measure.WebHome]] [[dimension>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Dimension.WebHome]] is specified at the observation), then there will be types derived for each [[measure>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Measure.WebHome]] defined by the [[measure>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Measure.WebHome]] [[dimension>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Dimension.WebHome]].

1162 -An identifiable object target is meant to reference an SDMX identifiable object. In the metadata structure specific schema, the complex type which defines the reference is restricted according to the local representation and object type of the identifiable object target. If the identifiable object target does not provide an enumeration in its local representation, then the complex type for the target object is the specific reference type from the common namespace, based on the object type defined by the target object. For example, if the object type is DataProivder, the type will be common:DataProviderReferenceType. The general rule for the name of this type is common:[object type]ReferenceType.

In order to update an [[attribute>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Attribute.WebHome]], a full key must always be provided even if the message format does not require this.

1248 -A dataset with an action of Delete is assumed to be an incremental deletion. The deletion is assumed to take place of the lowest level of detail provided in the message. For example, if a delete message is sent with only a data set element, the entire data set will be deleted. On the other hand, if that data set contains a data attribute, only that data attribute value will be deleted. This same dynamic continues through the data set hierarchy. A data set containing only a series with no data attributes or observations will result in that entire series (all observations and data attributes) being deleted. If the series contains data attributes, only the supplied data attributes for that series will be deleted. Finally, if a series contains observations, then only the specified observations will be deleted. If an entire observation is to be deleted (value and data attributes), only the observation dimension should be provided. If only the observation value or particular data attributes are to be deleted, then these should be specified for the observation. Note that a group can only be used to delete the data attributes associated with it. Although the format might not require it, a full key must be provided to delete a series or observation. It is not permissible to wild card a key in order to delete more than one series or observation. Finally, to delete a data attribute or observation value it is recommended that the value to be deleted be supplied; however, it is only required that any valid value be provided.
