Usage
SDMX Codelists are lists of classification codes principally used for defining the set of allowed 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'.
By convention, the Codelist IDs are given a 'CL_' prefix to
Examples
A Simple Frequency Codelist: CL_FREQ
| Code ID | Code Name |
|---|---|
| A | Annual |
| S | Half-yearly, semester |
| Q | Quarterly |
| M | Monthly |
| W | Weekly |
| D | Daily |
| B | Daily - Business Week |
| N | Minutely |
