352 -Both measures and attributes have been extended with the option to take ‘arrays’ of 193 multiple coded or uncoded values. This supports use cases like multiple observation 194 status flags. New //minOccurs// and //maxOccurs// properties define the valid number of 195 values. The //usage// property separately defines whether the measure or attribute is //mandatory// or optional. In the SDMX-ML measure example above, the properties //minOccurs=”1” maxOccurs=”1” usage=”mandatory”// specify that OBS_VALUE must be 198 reported, and can only consist of a single value.

That allows ValueItems (the equivalent to Code) to contain symbols like ‘¥’ and ‘€’, but also means they are not identifiable.
