Usage

SDMX Codelists are lists of classification codes principally used for defining the values for enumerated components in Data Structure Definitions or Metadata Structure Definitions.
Each code is treated as a separated Item so must have an ID and a Name, but can also have an optional Description. Code IDs are unique within a Codelist, but the same Code ID may be safely used in other Codelists. For instance: The code 'A' may be used in a Frequency Codelist to represent 'Annual', but also appear in an Industry Codelist to represent 'Agriculture'.
