75 75  A DataConstraint has a choice of two ways of specifying value subsets:
76 76  
77 -1. As a set of keys that can be present in the //[[DataSet>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data set.WebHome]]// (DataKeySet). Each DataKey specifies a number of ComponentValues each of which reference a //[[Component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]]// (e.g., [[Dimension>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Dimension.WebHome]], DataAttribute). Each ComponentValue is a value that may be present for a //[[Component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]]// of a structure when contained in a //[[DataSet>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data set.WebHome]]//. In addition, each DataKeySet may also include MemberSelections for AttributeComponents or Measures.
78 -1. As a CubeRegion whose MemberSelections SelectionValues define a subset of allowed/disallowed values for a [[Component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]] when contained in a //[[DataSet>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data set.WebHome]]/MetadataSet//. A DataConstraint is restricted to a maximum of 2 CubeRegions, one to define included (allowable) content, and the other to define disallowed content ([[isIncluded>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.isIncluded.WebHome]]=false).

82 -1. Defines a combination of [[Dimension>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Dimension.WebHome]] values, which are assessed in combination to reference one or more Series in a [[Dataset>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data set.WebHome]]. This combination of values can be used to explicitly include or exclude the Series from being reported (via the [[isIncluded>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.isIncluded.WebHome]] property). In addition, once a set of Series are targeted by a DataKey restrictions can be applied to [[Attribute>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Attribute.WebHome]] and Measure values by defining subsets of values that are either allowed or disallowed. The DataKeySet targets its rules to specific Series.
83 -1. Defines a subset of values that are allowed for a [[Component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]]. Each CubeRegion MemberSelection defines a single [[Component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]] to define a set of allowed or disallowed values, the MemberSelections are processed indepently of each other. The Cube Region supplies global rules, not series specific rules.

85 85  A MetadataConstraint has only one way of specifying value subsets:

87 -~1. As a set of MetadataTargetRegions each of which defines a “slice” of the total structure (MemberSelection) in terms of one or more MemberValues that may be present for a //[[Component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]]// of a structure when contained in a MetadataSet.
