319	319	The GroupKey is a subunit of the //Key// that has the same dimensionality as the SeriesKey but defines a subset of the KeyValues of the SeriesKey. Its sub dimension structure is defined in the GroupDimensionDescriptor of the DataStructureDefinition identified by the same id as the GroupKey. The id identifies a “type” of group and the purpose of the GroupKey is to report one or more //AttributeValue// that are contained at this group level. The GroupKey is present when the GroupDimensionDescriptor is related to the GroupRelationship in the DataStructureDefinition. There can be many types of groups in a //DataSet//. If the Group is related to the DimensionRelationship in the DataStructureDefinition then the //AttributeValue// will be reported with the appropriate dimension in the SeriesKey or Observation.

The //AttributeValue// may be either a //DataAttributeValue// or a //MetadataAttributeValue//, representing values of DataAttributes defined in the DSD or MetadataAttributes of the linked MSD, respectively. The allowable Concepts and the objects to which these metadata can be associated (attached) are defined in the DataStructureDefinition and the linked MetadataStructureDefinition.
