415 415  It should be noted that the desired VTL Data Sets (i.e. of the kind ‘DF1(1.0.0)/// INDICATORvalue//.//COUNTRYvalue//’) can be obtained also by applying the VTL operator “**sub**” (subspace) to the Dataflow DF1(1.0.0), like in the following VTL expression:

417 -[[image:1747388275998-621.png]]
417 +‘DF1(1.0.0)/POPULATION.USA’ :=
418 +DF1(1.0.0) [ sub INDICATOR=“POPULATION”, COUNTRY=“USA” ];
418 418  
420 +‘DF1(1.0.0)/POPULATION.CANADA’ :=
421 +DF1(1.0.0) [ sub INDICATOR=“POPULATION”, COUNTRY=“CANADA” ];
422 +… … …
423 +
419 419  In fact the VTL operator “sub” has exactly the same behaviour. Therefore, mapping different parts of a SDMX Dataflow to different VTL Data Sets in the direction from SDMX to VTL through the ordered concatenation notation is equivalent to a proper use of the operator “**sub**” on such a Dataflow.{{footnote}}In case the ordered concatenation notation is used, the VTL Transformation described above, e.g. ‘DF1(1.0)/POPULATION.USA’ := DF1(1.0) [ sub INDICATOR=“POPULATION”, COUNTRY=“USA”], is implicitly executed. In order to test the overall compliance of the VTL program to the VTL consistency rules, it has to be considered as part of the VTL program even if it is not explicitly coded.{{/footnote}}

506 506  The main difference between VTL and SDMX relies on the fact that the VTL artefacts for defining subsets of Value Domains do not exist in SDMX, therefore the VTL features for referring to predefined subsets are not available in SDMX. These artefacts are the Value Domain Subset (or Set), either enumerated or described, the Set List (list of values belonging to enumerated subsets) and the Data Set Component (aimed at defining the set of values that the Component of a Data Set can take, possibly a subset of the codes of Value Domain).
