--//**DataSetType:**// DataSetType is the abstract type which defines the base structure for any [[data structure definition>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data structure definition.WebHome]] specific [[data set>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data set.WebHome]]. A derived [[data set>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data set.WebHome]] type will be created that is specific to a [[data structure definition>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data structure definition.WebHome]] and the details of the organisation of the data (i.e. which [[dimension>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Dimension.WebHome]] is the observation [[dimension>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Dimension.WebHome]]). Data is organised into either a collection of series (grouped observations) or a collection of un-grouped observations. The derived [[data set>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data set.WebHome]] type will restrict this choice to be either grouped or un-grouped observations. If this [[dimension>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Dimension.WebHome]] is "AllDimensions" then the derived [[data set>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data set.WebHome]] type must consist of a collection of un-grouped observations; otherwise, the [[data set>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data set.WebHome]] will contain a collection of series with the observations in the series disambiguated by the specified [[dimension>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Dimension.WebHome]] at the observation (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)level(%%). This [[data set>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data set.WebHome]] is capable of containing data (observed values) and/or documentation (data and metadata [[attribute>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Attribute.WebHome]] values) and can be used for [[incremental updates>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Incremental update.WebHome]] and deletions (i.e. only the relevant updates or deletes are exchanged). It is assumed that each series or un-grouped observation will be distinct in its purpose. For example, if series contains both data and documentation, it assumed that each series will have a unique key. If the series contains only data or only documentation, then it is possible that another series with the same key might exist, but with not with the same purpose (i.e. to provide data or documentation) as the first series. This base type is designed such that derived types can be processed in a generic manner; it assures that [[data structure definition>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data structure definition.WebHome]] specific data will have a consistent structure. The group, series, obs, and atts elements are unqualified, meaning that they are not qualified with a namespace in an instance. This means that in the derived [[data set>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data set.WebHome]] types, the elements will always be the same, regardless of the target namespace of the schemas which defines these derived types. This allows for consistent processing of the structure without regard to what the namespace might be for the [[data structure definition>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data structure definition.WebHome]] specific schema.

  === 3.3.2 Representation Determination ===
--Every [[component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]] has a [[representation>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Representation.WebHome]] associated with it, whether it is defined as a local [[representation>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Representation.WebHome]] in the [[component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]] definition, or it is inherited from the (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)concept(%%) from which the [[component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]] takes it semantic (as defined in the (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)concept(%%) identity of the [[component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]]).
++Every component has a representation associated with it, whether it is defined as a local representation in the component definition, or it is inherited from the concept from which the component takes it semantic (as defined in the concept identity of the component).
--The [[representation>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Representation.WebHome]] of a [[component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]] is determined by the following precedence:
++The representation of a component is determined by the following precedence:
--1. The local [[representation>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Representation.WebHome]] defined by the [[component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]]
--1. The core [[representation>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Representation.WebHome]] defined in the (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)concept(%%) from which the [[component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]] takes its semantic
--1. A default [[representation>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Representation.WebHome]] of an un-faceted text format with a data type of String.
++1. The local representation defined by the component
++1. The core representation defined in the concept from which the component takes its semantic
++1. A default representation of an un-faceted text format with a data type of String.

++The representation will either define a text format, an enumeration with an enumeration format, or a union of the former with the value of a irrelevant representation ‘’ (tilde).
--A text format consists of a data type and an optional collection of [[facets>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Facet.WebHome]]. It is the combination of these which determine the exact nature of the [[component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]] [[representation>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Representation.WebHome]]. An enumeration consists of a reference to a [[codelist>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Code list.WebHome]], [[hierarchy>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Hierarchy.WebHome]], or value list, for which an enumerated list of possible values can be created.

  === 3.3.3 Simple / Primitive Type Determination ===
--For any given [[representation>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Representation.WebHome]], there exist rules for determining the simple or primitive type which should be used to validate the value. There are no specific requirements to how a simple type is named or if it is referenced or used as an anonymous type. This section simply serves to state the requirements of the type for a [[component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]] based on its [determined [[representation>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Representation.WebHome]]](#332-[[Representation>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Representation.WebHome]]-Determination).
++For any given representation, there exist rules for determining the simple or primitive type which should be used to validate the value. There are no specific requirements to how a simple type is named or if it is referenced or used as an anonymous type. This section simply serves to state the requirements of the type for a component based on its [determined representation](#332-Representation-Determination).
--For example, a [[dimension>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Dimension.WebHome]] may inherit its [[representation>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Representation.WebHome]] for a (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)concept(%%), and the data type of a [[representation>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Representation.WebHome]] data type may be a String. The simplest solution would be to use the xs:string primitive type. However, an implementer may have chosen to generate simple types for all (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)concepts(%%) to avoid having to look up the (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)concept(%%) core [[representation>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Representation.WebHome]] for very [[component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]]. In this case, the type may be given a name based on the (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)concept(%%) and be a simple derivation from the xs:string type that places no further restrictions. The result would be that the type that is actually used for the [[dimension>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Dimension.WebHome]], although named after the (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)concept(%%), is effectively the required xs:string. These rules are meant to allow such flexibility in how types are created. The only requirement is that the type meet the requirements stated here.

  === 3.3.4 Representation with Codelist Enumeration ===
--A [[representation>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Representation.WebHome]] which defines an enumeration from a [[codelist>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Code list.WebHome]] or [[hierarchy>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Hierarchy.WebHome]] will result in a simple type that is a restriction of the common:IDType. The simple type will define enumerations for each [[code>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Code.WebHome]] in the [[codelist>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Code list.WebHome]] or [[hierarchy>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Hierarchy.WebHome]], accounting for extensions. The value for these enumerations will be identifier of the item. If desired, the names of the item may be placed in the documentation of the enumeration, but this is not required. Example:
++A representation which defines an enumeration from a codelist or hierarchy will result in a simple type that is a restriction of the common:IDType.

--A [[representation>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Representation.WebHome]] which defines an enumeration from a value list will result in a simple type that is a restriction of the xs:string data type. The simple type will define enumerations for each value item in the value list. The value for these enumerations will be identifier of the item.
