247 247  ** Otherwise, if, according to the SDMX AttributeRelationship, the values of the DataAttribute depend on the MeasureDimension, the SDMX DataAttribute is mapped to one VTL Attribute for each possible Code of the SDMX MeasureDimension. By default, the names of the VTL Attributes are obtained by concatenating the name of the SDMX DataAttribute and the names of the correspondent Code of the MeasureDimension separated by underscore. For example, if the SDMX DataAttribute is named DA and the possible Codes of the SDMX MeasureDimension are named C1, C2, …, Cn, then the corresponding VTL Attributes will be named DA_C1, DA_C2, …, DA_Cn (if different names are desired, they can be achieved afterwards by renaming the Attributes through VTL operators).
248 248  ** Like in the Basic mapping, the resulting VTL Attributes are considered as dependent on all the VTL identifiers (i.e. "at data point / observation level"), because VTL does not have the SDMX notion of Attribute Relationship.

In case a different VTL basic scalar type is desired, it can be achieved in the VTL program taking in input the default VTL basic scalar type above and applying to it the VTL type conversion features (see the implicit and explicit type conversion and the "cast" operator in the VTL Reference Manual).
