Subject: UBL codelist value files from just-before-beta
Hi, As requested in the lcsc meeting, here is the set of documents containing the code list values that correspond to those codes listed in the Code List Catalogue where there are entries in the 'Actual Values' column (column P). There are 13 of these rows, and therefore 13 code list values files. Michael, fyi, the key for the tool was whether or not there was an '=' sign in the 'Actual Values' column (column P). If there was an '=' sign beginning colum P then the tool looked for a file with the name listed after the '=' sign. The file was named according to 'Column 'B' ('Code List Namespace) in the Code List Catalogue. You'll note that the values are very unrecognizable on their own, since most of them are numbers. We went through many discussions as to whether to capture more information in the 'values' files, but it was determined that there was a) not enough time, b) no method for clearly specifying which additional information should be captured, and c) not within our purview to do so. The 'Credits' column (column R) in the Catalogue states exactly where these code list values came from *if* the values were from a source external to UBL. If so, the information in the 'Credits' column was included in the comment header block in the schema file for each code list schema. The 'Notes' column (column Q) were internal notes (really should not have been sent out). Please note that we were originally using the lists at http://www.unece.org/cefact/trafix/bdy_code.htm. These lists turned out to be in various stages of construction and we found we had to fall back to the lists at http://www.unece.org/trade/untdid/d03a/tred/tredi2.htm for any consistency, so, based on our experience, there is a bit of danger in identifying a specific URL for a code list and any ubl attempt to identify such urls should be vetted appropriately. -Anne
